    Compared to the first time I ever saw him, he has improved quite a lot. He still looks kinda Gumby-ish and off balance at times, but the overall "package" looked okay. I found myself not really watching Fury....but being stunned by how garbage Johnson looked for a "contender".

    All Time Great Boxing Legend Emmanuel Steward:

    "Tyson Fury has the ability and I think in my expectations will be the next superstar dominant heavyweight much along the lines of Lennox Lewis and Wladimir Klitschko. The way that he's progressing now I believe he can be maybe the complete package for the heavyweight division because of his talent, he's good looking guy and very colourful personality, I think he can be a tremendous shot in the arm for the heavyweight division in the future."

    He said that in 2010, when he had first started training Fury. Soon after, Manny stopped training him & left him in the hands of his dad & uncle.

    I wonder why .....

    Well he's improved quite a bit since 2010 so they must have done something right.

    Yeah maybe so,he was suffering from depression around that time .. his missus was pregnant and a few weeks later had his boy that was basically on deaths door for a while ... he binge ate and drank and was basically not intrested atall.He was a bit of a mess untill only recently to be fair,he's come on leaps and bounds since taking it serisouly and letting his uncle train him.
    Take into account just over a year ago his son was dying,his old man was up on a manslaughter charge,suffering from depression etc ... he's improved a **** load.

    No doubt! Tyson Fury was obviously clever enough to realize that he was better off in the capable hands of his uncle, than with Emmanual Steward.

    Yep. :nut

    ------------

    Now, to be fair, fury really HAS improved noticeably since 2010, especially his footwork. Also, he seems to have the fighting spirit so I doubt we'll ever see him in a boring fight.

    But he's still a big punching bag, waiting for the first good counterpuncher he faces to pummel him into a giant pile of blood, oil & pain. It's only a matter of time.
