    He's pretty bad, but luckily for him he's huge and pretty funny during interviews and weigh-ins.

    The poll doesn't have an option I wanted to vote for, so I am writing it here:

    I had big hopes for Fury. Sure he is crude, sure he is not very well balanced and sure, he is not the most durable boxer out there. But his sheer size, physical strength and mean streak were to me enough to make him dangerous.

    That was before I found out he had no heart. Before he pulled out hours away from a fight where he would face an in shape fighter his own size. That told me he had fragile heart to add to a fragile chin. And to me, that is unacceptable in a top level fighter.

    When Wlad retires, Fury might get a belt. Until then, Fury will keep calling Wlad a coward while avoiding all top dogs in the division.

    Typical over hyped Glass Jawed Heavyweight from the UK. We have all seen this before with Haye, Harrison, Price, etc it is nothing new.

    I dont think we have ever seen him at his best , he has had very a bad run with haye pulling out on him twice and then Chisora. Haters love to hate him but he adds colour to a dull heavyweight division.

    Something in between the first two. He's just a British Andrzej Wawrzyk.

    Well his fighting style of running an throwing no punches kinda had something to do with it don't you think? The guy was scared to engage and we all know why.

    The English are great bull**** artist, that's the best thing he has going for him without that he's average at best.

    How would Fury do with Sugar Hill as his trainer?

    Fury has fast hands for a man his size, and has a decent jab.

    Realistically, he could be all three poll options. I was interested in him a year or so ago but now he's becoming boring.
