    He is right, absolutely right.. everybody who think Tyson has a bit of a Chance is

    a) absolutely delusional
    b) a troll
    c) a dangerous mix of both called Dinovelvet

    Opinions aside; Lennox and Tyson Fury are two mixed matched individuals who would probably never get along under the best of circumstances.

    Lewis probably meant it was incredible that Fury could get a title shot mandatory with the pitty record he has...

    But then Again, so did Wilder :blood

    Isn't Joshua number 2 with the WBC, surely that is more ridiculous than Fury being a mandatory? The WBO are a joke though, already served up Leapai to Wlad. The Lion probably does like wlad, he's Manny' s boy after all.

    There is no one out there that good and tall compared to Wlad...how does Lewis expect Fury to do that in the first place? :D

    Since the Haye fight, how many of Wlad's opponent's would you say are a smimilar or better standard than Tyson Fury?
    I would say only Povetkin and Pulev where considered to have any sort of chance, no matter how little.
    So to say that Fury doesn't deserve a shot at him, is ridiculous if you then consider the likes of Jennings, Leapai, Pianeta and Mormeck to have been deserving of it.
    Hopefully the fight will go ahead soon, and regardless of whether you think Fury deserves or not (I do by the way), just enjoy it.

    With regards to Joshua, he turns 26 in October, Fury turns 27 in August. Just over a year between them, I would say Joshua is well over a year behind in his development.

    He means Fury has't fought anyone worth a **** he got the Mandatory for beating Chisora a 2nd time :lol::rofl

    How will Chisora prepare him for Wlad? How will Hammer prepare him for Wlad? That was Lennox point. Fury ducked all the other bigger fighters.

    Giving the most logical prediction nowadays gets you labeled a racist, hater or having some ulterior motive for doing so. I recall Pac fans doing so when most professional fighter, trainer and fans who knows shyt about boxing were giving them the most logical prediction to what was going to happen. We know how that fight turned out.

    No logical neutral fan, trainer, or expert could look at Klitschko vs Fury and not notice this disparity in skill set, experience and overall talent overwhelming in Wladimir's favor.

    Lewis is right the fight is a mismatch, why can't you understand that.:roll::patsch

    because lewis has given worse klitchko opponents a better chance and didnt question why they were even given the fight. lewis doesnt like fury. i doubt he will give him credit even if he does well.

    did you know james ali bashir.

    wladmir klitchko's trainer rates fury and says this could be a tough fight.

    before the jennings fight he didnt rate bryant at all.
    bashir doesnt bull**** he doesnt hype klitchkos opponent je says it as he sees it..

    how did ustinov prepare pulev and how did valuev prepare haye.

    its a crude arguement.
    no giant is on klitchkos level. and fighting aload of stiff goliaths who cant move out of their own wsy does not prepare you for wlad.

    christ i think sparring hughie fury would to better to prepare tyson than fighting some tall statues.

    He would have fought Pulev but the Haye fight came along (bigger name, bigger purse, more recognition for a win) only for Haye to pull out on him twice.

    He's then chased both brothers and Wilder.

    About time he got his shot, at least he'll come to fight.

    Think he means he's baffled how fury could even become mandatory with his resume.

    Lewis is college educated. He socializes with the top 1,000 in Florida, record label owners, plays golf with investment bankers. Attends charitable events with other former world class athletes.

    Tyson Fury has never seen a college or university from the inside. Fury socializes with guys living in projects. So yes, Lewis is looking down on Fury.
