    So he won't fight Bellew because he is too small and would do him some proper damage.

    Then takes a fight against someone a lot smaller than Bellew.

    Nothing less than we were expecting though really is it.

    I'll bet that @ross is somewhere in the world now trying to convince people that this is a live opponent and a victory will prove that Fury is back and better than ever.

    I'll let him off for his first fight in 3 years though.

    id have rather seen him in with a Heavyweight, there's no way Warren will rush him either. No chance of him risking potentiality tge top boy in tbe division.
    I expect back to back gimmes then he needs a decent test third time out.

    Would prefer he fight either from the other heavyweight fight on the card!

    A 40 yr old cruiserweight named twice. Brilliant. I'll give credit for Fury putting in the work and keeping his nose clean but ways to go. All in on seeing Flanagan beat Hooker.

    Hooker was "discovered" while getting kind of roughed up in sparring with Saucedo in Texas. The money guy behind Alex at the time liked him, however, then subsequently had a falling out with my friend that managed Saucedo. The money guy then became the manager of Hooker and got him to a world ranking before they parted ways.

    Cunningham put him on his ass.
    I can only hope Seferi will put him on his back.

    Maybe they are looking to get fury fighting Manuel charr next year and picking up the fake wba title, seferi only loss came against charr... Charr has challengrged fury to a fight before and he will bc looking to get paid before he is finished, which in my opinion will be pretty soon...


    As for seferi v fury.... Who cares.

    Shows why Ali, Vital and Leonard were so great, all took on tough guys after roughly 3-4 years out.

    Thurman and Fury need their tune ups

    Just watched highlights of this severity guy getting beat by Manuel charr. I'd have to say he looks even worse than the bums David Haye was beating on Dave.

    i can understand a soft touch after a layoff but this cruiserweight won't even give him any rounds and it's not like he can make a statement by beating him quickly. Waste of time fight but there's gotta be a reason he chose someone this bad

    Maybe he will choose Bellew next.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    The point of a tuneup is to get better. This is just a waste of time.

    Tyson's a joke, and so's his comeback.

    I think the point in this case is just to get him back in the ring for real, then to see if he can fight at all anymore, and, above all, to make sure he doesn't get beat.
