http://www.eastsideboxing.com/tyson-fury-sparring-with-mma-fighters-to-get-ready-for-chagaev-bout/ So why? As the writer mentioned in the piece, if they're not experienced boxers, what benefits can Fury get out of this?
**** off t bagged, this thread doesn't concern your kind. Good move by fury, it will improve his clinching when required
oh look i offended the UK's favorite hype job and it's Phil Mitchell to the rescue! Anytime a white fighter is talked negatively about Phil is there to save the day! Honestly Sexton would be good sparring for Chaggy by the way what is my kind? I'm curious
It doesnt do any harm, if it motivates him and gets him in shape its a good thing. However he needs serious work on technique as he still looks like a pikey fighter from an irish traveller family not a pro boxer
So he's really fighting Chagaev? That's a very dangerous fight for him Fury has to be in his best shape ever to win this fight
Maybe like someone else suggested.....it's to improve his abilty to clinch.:huh I mean he doesnt need an MMA fighter to sit on the outside and eat his jab during sparring.
Depends who they are. Mma spar at a much higher level than boxers. Boxers tend to enjoy living in a bubble. Most boxers spar too much with tough journeymen so I wouldn't overlook mma to come in and give it a go. Chagaev is crafty though so he must be doing some specific sparring with better boxers too.
