    After Tyson's atrocious mentality tonight I thin it's quite clear how important his role is in keeping him sane.

    Probably derails any future fight in America for the foreseeable future.

    Did they say whether or not his visa failure was due to a criminal record?

    Are you messing? Heavyweight boxing is all but dead in America. That fight was probably the best one they've broadcast in years. They'll grabbing Fury's legs begging him to stay and fight over there all the time now.

    Are you serious? He's just bagged himself a TV deal IMO. Best world-level heavyweight fight they've seen in years.

    And it was on NBC prime time. Fury is now a somebody in US.

    He is yes, however that was far to close for comfort. He's gone from looking to a potential Klit successor to the bare knuckle fighter of a few years ago.

    Peter wouldn't have allowed that screaming nonsense in the first couple of rounds.

    Who would give him more than a one-fight deal unless they choose bums to fight him?

    He'd get knocked out by any decent HW.

    I disagree. There are loads of 'top' heavies in the US who he would beat. Arreola is the name that springs to mind. It's the top class Europeans he has to worry about. Haye, the Klits, probably Pulev.

    You'd basically have to cherry pick his fights and that's not the route he wants to go down, apparently.

    Would you, as a fan, want him to fight Pulev next up?

    I'm a boxing fan, so i want the best fights. Pulev or the winner of Arreola/Stiverne should be next.

    He was wild and crazy tonight, he had no respect for Cunningham's power. He would be much more careful against the fighters mentioned and give himself more of a chance than many think.

    Pulev is all wrong for much of the heavyweight division- can't see him fighting anyone of note this year, he'll just bide his time.
