    What do you think of him ? Hes raw but has great speed for a 6'8" guy and has a very good uppercut...he can be a force if his chin holds up...

    He looks a little soft. He's a weird shape - skinny arms and a large waist.

    Interesting figure. Hardly an athlethe in appearence.. yet puts a few punches together with good effect. He needs to change his posture, this will become paramount as he moves through the ranks. No room, even for a guy his size, to be scatching his knee with the left hand whilst in the midst of a bout. He'll be open to right hand bombs sooner or later.

    If taken seriously, theres a place for him in the H/W fields.....

    Change his physical make-up for starters. Looks the type to become 20-0- 15kos by late 2011.. Thats around the time to seriously throw him to the wolves.

    He needs time and work on musculation a bit but he certainly has great natural tallent for a man of his size...

    Tyson Fury is no Tye Fields, he is in another class and has had only two fights, really good speed/movement, esp. for a man who is 6 feet 9 inches tall and only 20 years old. Time will tell, but he looks like he has a future.

    His old man, Gypsy John Fury was/is a complete nutter. I saw him fight a couple of times at HW in the 80's, he wasn't bad but nothing special.

    Fury looks like he could have gone somewhere in the amateurs.

    he looked like he had fast hands and quite a big right hand. His jab could do with work and his stance looked a bit poor. Didn't seem to make use of his height too well either. He's aggressive though and he's young. Could be good. He's a gypsy though, so I hope he can stay off the booze!

    Stoppage was definitely premature.

    That said, Tyson was going to win anyway.

    Has potential.

    I'd like to see how he does against serious opposition.

    It was a decent opponent for a second pro fight - better than anyone Audley Harrison faced (other than Rob Callaway) prior to the first fight with Danny Williams.
