    Let me see:

    CON'S

    1) Atrocious footwork

    2) Continually punches off the wrong foot

    3) Arm punches

    4) Dodgy stamina

    5) Poor defence


    PRO'S

    1) Big guy - height and reach

    2) Not afraid to fight

    3) Showed good heart in the first McDermott fight

    4) Still young and has the benefit of training with Manny Stewart now


    Personally I don't see Fury becoming a tall dominant champ in the mold of the Klitschko's but he is definitely a future Euro champ that will get a world title shot. I am looking forward to seeing what Manny can do with him. In saying that he lacks some of the basic boxing skills. Manny has his work cut out for him. I see a gradual rather than rapid improvement.

    Love him or hate him his pure size alone is always going to make people want to watch him. Fury v Harrison would attract a lot of attention.

    No he doesn't! One thing Fury does have going for him is his balls. He swings with his hands down, hardly Audley material. What a f'n mong.

    he says motivation is hard, as its 8 and 10 rounders in far of places, at the minute theres no brit fight lined up and he won the eliminater last june, supposed to be 6mth mandatorys, be lucky if he gets it before 12 mths, though he did say when he wins it, he's fighting every other british heavy, and he,s going to defend it till theres no one left, as he's no intrest in fighting abroad, .:good

    His problem is the exact opposite - he's always there for a scrap. I love him I think he's a future British legend of the sport, whether he's more Danny Williams than lennox Lewis remains to be seen.
