Exclusive: Fury vs Perez in the works | BoxRecNews
who do you reckon?
Mike Perez will school Fury, of that I have no doubt. I'll be surprised if this fight comes off though, I can't see people wanting to see Fury lose some of the £££ signs he gained vs Chisora just yet.
That is some brave matchmaking, that's all I'm gonna say...
It's about damn time heavyweights had some "brave match making" hell the last time I remember any effort in brave match making re: heavyweight prospects was the Boxing After Dark with Mesi-Williamson, Guinn-Dokiwari, and some other undefeated heavyweight all fought on the same night on the same card...one of my favorite nights of boxing just for the match making alone! It showed that their management had full faith in their skill levels and in that case all went to plan for the favorites...still fun to watch though.Quote:

I agree with Eric here. I like Perez but he's been seriously overrated since winning the easiest prizefighter ever.
Kertson Manswell was a big fat lump with breeze blocks stuck to his feet who's only punch is a predictable righthand swipe. He makes Sam Peter look like Ali.
Gregory Tony struggled to beat a Russian journeyman, then jumped on the floor, realising he's earned his money, the first time Perez through a shot at him.
Tye Fields - china-chin, needs oxygen mask after the first 90 seconds of every fight - came into the final injured and needed to be helped into the ring he was so fucked.
Fat John McDermott would have smashed all of them to bits.
This is a BIG step up for Perez not Fury.
You avoided the question though. Who wins?Quote:

Agreed that would mean Fury is getting some credibility back, after that uppercut. I still believe he will become a world champ some day. 5 years time or so.Quote:

I wasn't convinced by Perez at all in prizefighter, and he hasn't really fought at any sort of level, with his best win over a blown up journeyman cruiserweight in Ismail Abdoul.
Perez is making the step up, and I'd back Fury going in to this one. As for David Price, I doubt Price would fancy it, so the Canadian Bosnian Neven Pajkic might be the most likely match up to end up getting made.
I never avoid the question ratcantrat.
I think Fury's enormous size advantage, better form and solid chin make him favourite.
(plus I heard Fury smashed him all over the shop when sparring ;))
I actually agree with you on this. Perez has indeed become overrated.Quote:

I heard the same thing from Hughie Fury.Quote:
