How good is Tyson Fury?

[mrbig1]

Don't get to see him in the states. Is he for real or another Audley Harrison?

Hes a lot better than fraudley no doubt. Fury has talent hes young but still proving himself, hes 24 and so far looked decent. We will know within the year if hes good enough to contend at the top. I thought Boystov would be a good test for him, its a shame that the fight has fell through. I dont know who he is fighting next but if he shows up in shape like last time he will be a test for any heavyweight.

He looks like absolute dog shit, have no idea what some people are watching to rate this guy highly. At the same stage of his career Harrison had a hundred times more potential, he was far more talented and had skills. Audleys problems were upstairs, and that wasn't clear until he had fought a few decent opponents.

I'll grant you Fury seems determined and fairly tough, but that's about it. As awful as the heavyweight division is, I reckon even outside of the Klitschkos there are a good seven or eight guys who would completely wreck him.

I think at 24 he has a lot to still learn about the game, a lot of other heavyweights are better than fury but hes still got to get more experience and fight somebody who is worth fighting. Why does he look so shit? I think hes had some decent knockouts. As I said before I think in a years time we can have a better picture of Fury. He might be all or nothing, who knows. Only time will tell though and he has a lot of that, so I think people should stop hating and just see how hes progresses through the division.

I just can't see him tightening up enough to actually be world class. Crap as it may be, it's still the heavyweight division, you can't be a slow, plodding arm puncher without real KO power and expect to have all that much of a career. David Price would stomp a whole in him, I wouldn't give him much of a shot at all against the few promising American HW's out there.

Please explain what being 24 and learning has got to do with the fact he has no power at top level he is an arm puncher ,he has been down against a small ,light punching D level fighter.

A young Bruno or Gary Mason would have put him away in a round , id actually love to see him get a fight with one of the brothers grim , as id love him to get his mouth shut once and for all.

To sum up he is a circus act , sure he is British level , but in the HW division you need power and he doesnt have it , he has reached his level , thats why now they are carefully matching him .

Average. The Audley Harrison that came off the games with gold would have destroyed him.
Cant see why if he is so good that he would cancel the Boystov fight unless Price is afoot.

[mrbig1]

Another question. Has he been tested against anybody worth a shit?

[IamInuit]

Look at Mike Tysons first 20 fights. Fury's stacks up.

As av said before fury is really shit! And an accident waiting to happen. Really would like to see him in with price and believe price would take him out within 2 rounds.to be honest thow fury will be knocked out cold long before he stops running from David price.a think fury is a fine example ov how bad heavy weight boxing is just now
