You guys realize Tyson Fury basically has no actual skills, right?

    Just wanted to establish this point as people begin to dissect the upcoming fight with Boytsov. This needs to be kept in mind going forward.

    Thats not true. He throws a mean self uppercut thingy, ;) No, I think he has gotten a lot better. The bigger a fighter is, the more clumsy he looks. I think Fury has a good chance. He is a tough guy, his skills have improved, and he is huge. We'll see.

    You did if you are a comedy fan. :yep

    Actually the guy has become a lot better as I ever imagined. But still would be KO'd once he faces a decent opponent with power.
    He's was right to duck Price, but if the Boytsov fight really takes place he will be flattened.

    I've seen him hit himself with an uppercut :) and that's pretty much it. I would watch the fight against Boytsov prolly if it takes place.

    Tyson Fury epitomises the Heavy weight scene, it's all about size these days. The contenders are all over 6'5". The advantage they gain over the shorter guys is insane.

    Fury is the most untalented out of the three Price/Fury/Wilder IMO. He has horrible skills, throws shoulder punches with very little power, has a terrible jab. His defensive reflexes are total ****. And worst of all absolutely dismal stamina, but at least that can be improved upon.

    His weak boxing skills though are harder to change. He will always look clumsy and amateurish. I'll change my mind when I see evidence for it. I'm curious how he'll handle Boytsov.

  11. :lol::lol::rofl:rofl Great post to quickly extinguish this disgraceful troll thread.

    The moment Wilder steps up to fighting taxi drivers instead of the professional pie-eating competition entrants he has been feasting on, he is getting his Fragile Glass Mandible shattered, and brutally. :deal

    Pretty harsh comments. Fury looked by far at his best during his last fight, he's certainly improved and has not just lost weight. Looked very fluid as well.

    I like the guy. I find his fights entertaining, and he gives it a real go. He fights with a certain 'attitude' and he's not lost for a few interesting comments.

    I don't know how far he'll go, but it's going to be fun while it lasts.
