    Firstly, blatant shill for the blog I wrote about big Tyson last night - http://martinhines.com/2013/04/21/why-we-should-learn-to-love-tyson-fury/

    Long story short, I think people struggle to separate Fury the man, and Fury the boxer. If he had a personality like a David Price, I think people would look at his record at 24 years old, undefeated in 21 fights having fought a variety of opponents in a variety of locations, and think that he's actually doing pretty well.

    What do you think? Can we separate the man from his boxing? If you had been the one looking after his career from aged 20, what would you have done differently?

    No, his character is what makes him exciting IMO and has kept me interested in him.
    He was awful starting out

    Im ****ing bored shitless of mouthy boxers who have proved **** all. If he behaved like Price i probably would like him more but he doesnt. Tyson Fury is a twat and is nothing new.

    I think the Cunningham fight will probably be his career highlight.

    He'll have to step up again soon, and I can only see him losing from here on out against any of the top heavies.

    Funny guy though, bit twattish, but funny.

    I think he's alright, he just likes to be the showman...he comes across like a likeable idiot that you have to laught at....whilst he is in boxing there will be some entertaining heavyweight fights....

    He's mot the best but he's a fighter and getting better....and he's British we should be getting behind the man...
