    Mick >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Eddie >>>>>>>>>>>>>>Frank

    Look at how he conduct press conferences. Mugs of orange juice, Not water he's gone all out and served up some freshly squeezed, not bits orange juice and even has a TV in background.

    ''You ready then fellas?''. Sheer class is Mick.

    :rofl Tyson swearing, Also said he smashed Wlad around the ring in sparring. Fury is amped up. But spoke well about Steve, This is a good test IMO.

    Good test how? I dont think Cunningham is a real test for Fury he is just not a Heavyweight. And till now Cunningham never faced a real heavyweight (dont tell me Adamek is a good Heavyweight he is clearly not anymore!).
    Cunningham was and still is a Cruiserweight nothing more.

    Tyson said it and he was right with it. If Tyson says it why cant I?
    Cunningham never faced a good Heavyweight and is just to small for Fury. He has not the tools to trouble Fury! This wont be a test. Every person who knows something about boxing should know this.:D

    I saw you arguing with Mo the other day, So going to keep this as short and sweet as possible.

    Cunningham is a good experienced fighter who's well schooled and has a astute tactician in his corner. He's coming off a win in his and the peoples mind against a shopworn yet still decent enough Adamek. He won that fight IMHO in convincing fashion. He's in with the big boys, he's had two fights to get himself ready and now he faces a massive young buck and young buck is what Fury is.

    Cunningham has ability to offset Fury, Frustrate and offer something different to Fury. Who normally has men come to him and try cut him down to size. This time Fury gonna have to go hunting for the U.S.S. Cunningham has speed and sharpness to seize upon slackness from Fury in terms of punches, footwork and positioning. We've seen Cruiserweights do this to the giants over the years when they've stepped up. Fury's got to prove he's no slouch but also remain poised and thoughtful.

    Cruiserweights do come up in weight as you know, they have had success and have beaten men twice there size. Cunningham's got to prove himself as well as Fury. But Cunningham is a fine athlete as well as a good boxer who's got plenty of heart and will to win. He's 6'3/6'4 with a 82 inch reach so it's his actual weight that's not true of the Super Heavy's nowadays but his dimensions are adequate enough.

    I expect Fury to win but Cunningham presents a different type of fight stylistically as well as technically and physically. Fury will gave to work to create the openings.

    It's also a progressive fight with the winner facing Pulev for the IBF Mandatory position.

    So as i said IMO it's a good test for a still young and up and coming heavyweight.

    Thanks for putting this on.Say this for Hennessy,got the rare ability to laugh at himself.Say what you like,Fury aint boring.Interesting to see they're after the brother who looks like going on longer,also Pulev,who our other guys don't seem to want,with good reason IMO.Some may think this is just talk,but I really think he'd take these fights,and strangely enough ,that he'd have a chance.Dont really like the Cunningham fight,due to the size difference,but guess its a stepping stone of sorts.

    We will see... Size really matters today in this division. It is just my opinion that Cunningham will look bad against Fury. Just because it is the first time Cunningham faces a big Heavyweight like Fury.
    Also I really dont rate the win over Adamek that high. Adamek is not a top contender right now. He looked very bad against Cunningham AND Chambers.
    My prediction... Cunningham will be KOed until the 8 round. Cunningham almost got KOed against Hernandez (who even has not a lot power for the Cruiserweight division). I just think Cunningham wont be able to handle such a big and good Heavyweight like Fury but we will see how he fights:bbb

    I think your right if Fury gets his paw on Cunningham with regularity it could be over around round 6. But i think Fury may keep to strict orders and Cunningham will fight a defensive fight.

    I agree also on Adamek, Not what he once was. But the nature of the victory (in our opinions) was a sign that Cunningham deserves this chance with IBF and as he's in HW division he's drawn a massive test in every sense of the word :lol:.

    Fury also has to contend with the desire to impress fans while Peter wants him to sit tight and box.

    Do you think Fury has a good chance against Pulev?
    Pulev did look good against tall opponents in the past. But I doubt that Fury-Pulev happens. This would be a to big risk for both of them.

    Yeah i don't think it happens either i think other things will come up in pipeline. Pulev i think would be real dangerous but then again Fury presents him some issues. It's a tough one to call, It would be a fun fight.
