    :lol: True, but atleast we no who these fella's are, and he is keeping active which is good. I think he is fighting the right level of comp at this stage.

    I dont like his style though.

    Agreed. David Price highlighted this with his first fight. This level of competition should be getting sparked by a decent heavyweight prospect

    Is the Central Area Heavey Weight title vacant?

    This would be a could have been a first title opportunity for Tyson

    It took Audley, Enzo and Chris Burton 2 rounds to beat him, so 2nd round TKO from a body shot

    Tomato can - Don't really know where it comes from, but it means a fighter who cannot really fight back, no skills or talent, barelly does any training, grossly out of shape, but happens to have courage to step into the ring to take a massive beating.

    Journeyman - Usually someone who does regular training but doesn't have talent. Can compete some and even win in case of not being taking seriously by the better fighters. Daniel Peret and Marcel Zeller are classic examples.

    Matthew Ellis is a step back from Lee Swaby in my opinion. He is a shadow of his former self and is only back in the ring because he is skint.

    Fury will stop in within 2 rounds. MAX 3.

    Tomato can originally meant a bleeder, because you open him up and the tomato sauce comes out.

    Now it means someone who is set up just to get knocked down without fighting back.

    Funny how stuff changes.

    I think it's a good opponent for him at this stage and if he beats him and then wins on the Froch v Taylor undercard I'd like to see him step up in class and maybe fight for a title.

    Fury has a future, time will tell, but I think he will have a good future.
