The problem for Tyson seems to be nobody wants to fight him. Sexton and Chisora have both turned the fight down. If he wins the English title he would become mandatory for the british.
I noticed the same thing with his head. He also goes back in straight lines with his chin up too often. He should deal with McDermott though, but I'd give him Danny Williams for the british title (and assuming Williams don't win) I'd give him the winner of prizefighter afterwards.... possibly let him fight for the Irish heavyweight tityle inbetween too. Judging by Fury's regular fighting schedule I'd say he could do all that before Feb-March 210? that's four meaningful fights for this stage in his career.... once he becomes British champion a fight with Chsiora is one I'd like to see or maybe even fight the loser of Rogan Sexton before fighting the winner? After all that I think it would be time for Fury to face some top rated European fighters.... assuming he beats them of course then I think that in maybe eight or nine good fights he'll be ready for a world title.... although because it's Hennessy it may be a bit longer before he secures him that oppertunity.
I'd **** the domestic scene off to be honest. There isn't anybody worth beating here that will actually help his career progression. All the higher ranked guys have seen better days. Whilst it is good for a guy to clean up here and win a Lonsdale, I think the achievement of doing so is overrated by fans and media alike. Plenty of fighters have stayed on the level too long and gotten stale and been unable to make the next step as a result, better to get them moving if they are ready. Moore, Hatton and Witter are all examples.
If he beats mcderomtt which i think he will i would put him in with, 1, Harrison 2,Chisora 3, Skelton 4,Rogan and Williams if he still has British, if he could fight these within 18 months and was still winning convincingly would prove hes up toa good level at this stage of his career. And the above would prove his punch resistence, him and roggie could be a war!!!!
Was just talking to tyson there He's got bigger fish to fry! irish title fight on the 26th of september! no opponenet yet
Plus he has less chance of losing his record (no offence to whoever he is going to fight for the Irish title) because prizefighter fights can be a real lottery at times.
At some stage Id like to see him fight that monster who Sprott fought on the Klitschko undercard in June. Would be interesting to see him in with someone of a similar size.
You are optimistic I'll give you that... 1) No chance he's matched that tough 2) He probably wouldn't even win all those fights
