    Tough as nails warrior who far surpassed anybody’s expectations of him. It was so exciting to root for him during that awesome stretch of success he had. I miss watching him fight.

    Well, If you miss him, I suggest you call him, have a chat, express your feelings and take it from there.

    Don't sound too desperate or stalky though, nobody needs that sort of pressure, plus it will spook him, just relax and speak from the heart and I'm sure he'll be happy to hear from you.

    Audley Harrison conqueror and the ninth best guy on Fury's resume:

    Klitschko
    Wilder
    Cunningham
    Chisora
    Wallin
    Johnson
    Hammer
    Pianeta
    Rogan

    POST SCRIPT: Was he speaking English in that clip?

    **** me as an Irishman myself that is one strong ass accent. He really does sound like a traveller, they can be indecipherable.

    That’s a northern Irish Belfast accent and not a traveller

    was good to see him win prizefighter. Age caught up with him quickly though and sad to see him get smashed by that European

    He was a decent watch during a period where there wasn't much to shout about

    Limited but he knew that, i bet he'd spark Babic

    Wallin's a 6'5, 240 lbs southpaw with only one loss, more durability than Cunningham and gave Fury a much harder fight than Chisora ever did. He's probably Fury's 3rd best opponent, though time will tell.

    Hammer beat Johnson just a year after Fury did and Hammer had wins over Teper and Price, which are better than Johnson's wins over Leapai, over the hill Pianeta and Sosnowski (three of the worst title challengers of the Klitschko era). Hammer also never lost to anyone as bad as Tor Hamer, let alone in his prime.

    After Johnson the rankings get very murky. There's not much to definitively split McDermott, Pajkic, Rogan, Abell, over the hill Pianeta and Schwarz.

    The English HW scene in the late 00s/early 2010s was pretty fun regardless of how good or bad it was.

    Really? Out of all the fighters in history you miss Martin Rogan?

    If they he fought AJ it would be billed as Rogan Dosh - extra spicy @Jurgen

    Miss a bunch of fighters, but this week it’s Rogan. Entertaining fighter and fun to root for.
