A year ago I would have agreed, but 2012 has not been Fury's year. At least Price is fighting, and Skelton is a name who has won five on the bounce.
Yes, Fury has face better opposition, but has looked far from convincing when stepping up in class. Watching him fight Chisora I was under the impression Del Boy threw away the fight rather than Fury winning it.
Fury's fans claim he is improving. I don't know how you can say that when the quality of his opposition has declined in his last four fights.
Well, put it this way, Tyson beat Rogan with ease this year, by pissing around and trying out southpaw. Then Madalone who has been in with world class opponents Meanwhile, Price has fought Sexton, Harrison and next up Skelton. Fighters that Furys opponents have already beaten.![]()
You either have a hatred of Price, or a love of Fury, but either way it couds your judgement.
Rogan lost twice to Sexton. Why didn't Fury chase Sexton then? Rogan was 40 years old coming off an 18 month layoff and without a significant win in years. Let's not pretend he was a credible opponent
You defend Madalone as having been in with world class opponents and then slate Harrison and Skelton, who have both been in the ring with better opponents than Madalone.
Ignoring Price for a moment Ross, do you think Fury's career is progressing well in 2012? Who is next for him? A top fifty fighter maybe?
Fury is fighting who is available to him and who will actually sign to fight him. He is now big risk low reward. Eddie Chambers has turned down a date in December. Regarding Sexton, Fury beat the undefeated Chisora.
Furys momentum has slowed but he is still well ahead of Price who is learning nothing from these British journeymen. How much shit would Fury get if he was signed up to fight Skelton?
I like the way Fury is doing things. Hes going in with unbeaten fighters and not just British level journeymen. He does have a suspect chin but hes proven his toughness and has learnt how to cope. Price hasnt. There are bigger questions over Prices chin. Hes been over a number of times in the amateurs with headgear on and Fury was one of the fighters who put him down. Hes yet to fight anyone who will put him in any danger and I dont think thats a coincidence. Maloney is steering him as carefully as he can to a title shot and will not take a Fury fight as it would turn his fiter in to a laughing stock if Fury were to stop him.
It looks like Tyson Fury will be fighting Tony Grano on Dec 1.
Grano is WBC#5 and Fury is WBC #4.
Тайсон Фьюри встретится с Тони Грано?
Tyson's fury wil be tamed if he steps in against pricey! Price is a future star in the making.
I can see why hes being touted as an amazing talent. His rise is just phenomenally amazing! I mean, how many other heavy weights could beat such a fantastic line up of McDermott, Sexton, Harrison and next up a real stern test against 50 year old Skelton.
Its just unbelievable...

Calm down dear and wipe your eyes, im taking the piss.
I do honestly think Fury will go further than Price. There is a reason Tysons team are willing to chance him against better opposition that Prices team are.
Fury is 24 and still getting better. Unless Price is another Froch (not a chance! Froch did t turn pro with a reputation of being delicate) hes leaving it very late to test himself.
How is he leaving it very late? He's a heavyweight who'll have his best years deep into his thirties. Audley turned pro at around the same age didnt he? He's had several chances to test himself even whilst fucking it up several times. His failure was nothing to do with his age.
