    it says "to beat me he's gonna have to kill me and to kill me he's gonna have to have the heart to stand in front of me and to do that he's gonna have to risk dying himself"

    I don't mind fighters having that mentality. Obviously it's O.T.T but it's a big reason why i love the sport. As long as he goes on his shield i have no problems with the tat. If he quits then obviously he look a right mug. Tyson should win, Even if he's not a supreme shape he's seems to get the job done.

    In a fighters mind he needs to believe he will go through anything in pursuit of victory. That's what sets them apart from the man on street and the guys who plays at the sport...like Jefferies etc.

    It's a part of the sport that we all fear but every man who laces them gloves up knows what may await them everytime they step foot through them ropes.

    He probably don't. A lot of guys like to think there harder and braver then what they are. It's a lot like Losfers thread about Boxing and Religion. Boxers need faith whether in themselves or in God or they buy into gladiatorial side of sport which will never be lost :bbb

    I'm really interested in this card! looks really bright imo.

    he will be an mma fighter or somekind of cagefighting, does look fit though,he's listed on boxrec as a 6.5inch southpaw, fury can box good for someone so big, but if he cant get sparring, what chance of finding southpaw heavys to spar, has fury fought any southpaws so far.

    the tatoo just makes him a figure of ridicule when he finally does lose...

    if he really believes that ****, deep down then he has no need to get it plastered on his arm...
    if i was fury, id take heart from that tatoo, in so much as its clear rich power aint the most intelligent of folk and probably aint the smartest

    i have no problem with his tat, he can do as he pleases. if it works for him, fine, all power to him but its the people thinking "damn, hes a bad dude, i bet hes not gonna back down at all" who are a bit foolish.
    the people who you most often see with tats like that are ****ing ******s who achieve **** all in life...why they have these tats...because they dont believe in themselves for real...so they fake it by stamping this bull**** on them.

    What shape was he in? He looked to have put on more muscle in his last fight.

    your a deep studier cheeky vid, but in the last shobox new talent type show, a top prospect got beaten, and ive got it on good info, that showtime aprove only good opponents, they turned a undefeated brazilian down. i just think it could be tough, whatever his tattoo says, hope it is, means a proper fight.:good

    looked ok never seen him training, said he'd been sparring at tko gym with ali adams, and done some with a amateur heavy, would say he's in good shape, but hard to say how good, as he had his clothes on.:good

    for sure, i really hope its a barnstormer and tysons chin gets tested. i hope he wins a tough one by KO in the last.

    hes picking up more fans now, since hes found a bit more humility in public. not afraid to trash-talk but still reasonable at the same time. similar to froch, not as ridiculous as haye

    Next time, look him in the eye, quickly lift up his shirt and see if you can pinch an inch..:hey
    If you are a fast runner, you might make it out he gym before he realises you violated him.
