Punch Power: 3317 | | Re: Tyson Fury turns Pro! I've heard he's more name than substance. Still he's young and marketable and if he's on the M.E.N bill then that might make him a Warren fighter.

I hope the british media doesnt hype him too much too early, and let him develop quietly. |

I wanna see how he goes when he starts fighting guys who are as big and strong as him. It is all good beating up on smaller dudes, but how does he handle it when the other guy hits back?
In the video it talks about him going to the 2012 olympics, now he has turned pro? |
