    That's what he does, all over the country filming anything from little amateur "skills" bouts/shows to ABA finals, internationals, you name it he has filmed it or has somebody film it for him, he is the main man.

    If you want an amateur fight, I'd be shocked if he didn't have it, his library is insane.

    Have to add, Eric is a real top man, loved and respected and really knows his boxing.

    I looked into it and Fury himself actually said that he did so. But there is 0 proof of it.
    With that kind of money being donated, you´d imagine we would hear about it.

    **** Fury for lying(if that is the case) but I fully agree what you said about charities. So I am happy that he didn´t blindly donate it.

    You're going to have to show me the video/audio of him saying it, or the article that has direct quotes.

    If you google Fury donates purse, Literally the whole first page is just media garbage.

    This is rather interesting.
    Fury talking about wanting to do charity work.
    And straight up refusing to answer if he held up his "promises".

    He was happy to talk about giving the money to charity before the first Wilder fight, but afterwards he refused to talk about it.

    I find it rather odd.

    You sure your not a joshua fan boy. I still say that second fight was still embarrasing. We we,re told he was like nothing we,ve seen before. What we got was a guy that threw a punch then ran away. What fury done there was boxing and moving. What we got with joshua was punching a small fat man then running away to the other corner of the ring.

    After being knocked down embarrasingly four times from the fattest man in the division...the last thing we needed was some running away. Joshua showed in them two fights he cant really fight with authority against a decent guy in his prime...n,or can he box and move. He can punch a small very unfit man and run away tho.

    All joshua had to do was what fury done there in that first fight. Joshuas feet arent capable of it tho. He cant reallly punch on the move unless its punch. Then move. Punch. Then move. The difference is fury can punch on the move.

    What an absolute fat looking mess. Would never believe he’d become a heavyweight world champion.

    Joshua didn´t run like you say. He fought a smart fight.
    There were times when he really was on his bike, but it wasn´t the entire fight.

    And context matters. Ruiz just obliterated Joshua. So it was smart for Joshua to play it safe. Control the distance, utilize the jab and land the occasional power punch.

    Looks like Fury regressed in his early years as a pro.
    Fury was really stiff and uncoordinated until he fought Martin Rogan.

    Two completely different fighters here.

    So I am surprised to see that Fury moved so well in the amateurs. Rather interesting. I wonder why he changed so much for the pros?

    Always odd when someone answers a question with a question ....Here goes for the hard of thinking bottyboy...Wat did YOU think of the amateur footage of Furys early fights...not PRO AMATEURS ...
