This fight is garbage. Mostly cuz of Johnson. But Fury ain't without blame
Johnson should have just had his right arm removed prior to the fight.
I have had more fun watching a punching bag get hit
No fault of Fury's of course. It's really hard to gauge how good Fury is from this type of fight, but no doubt his conditioning is great. He still has some pop on his punches late in the fight
I know... And he is shoulder rolling, and not even countering. It's just stupidQuote:

Normally I don't mind the British announcers but had to turn them off. Stepping up in class?? Fury proved he's ready?? You could have thrown a log in the ring and witnessed the same fight.
Lol yup I was thinking wtfQuote:

Fury boxed well behind his jab and when he did let his hands go he landed with some decent shots.
Johnson has shown he is a durable fighter with decent defence, but Fury pissed this fight!
We will see what he has when the chips are on the table in a title fight
I would like to hear one boxer say "First I'd like to thank atheism and evolution for helping me to win this fight";D
Johnson: I ain't no bum
The fuck you ain't
Nice performance from Tyson Fury, he fought patiently and intelligently. The 12 rounds of experience against a defensive-minded former world title challenger like Kevin Johnson is good for Tyson at this stage in his career.
I scored it 119-108 for Fury, he won every round but was deducted a point.
Tbh I reckon fury would smash vitali at this point.
I thought Fury was good there, he did what he needed to do and got the decision. Johnson is durable so its good for Fury to box clever for 12 rounds, I know it was a bit dull but thats what would be expected because of Johnson low punch output.
Fury moves onwards and upwards though whos next?

Anyone want to chip in and see if we can bribe Chambers to stay a heavyweight and pay Johnson to leave for the cruiser weight division ???
