Fury cant punch and has been floored by a non punching novice , please explain how he is the future ?
Well, yesterday was the past. Fury hasn't lost yet, and Master is clearly on glue. Clear things up?
Fury, Price, Charr, Wach, etc, are all well protected HW's.
There's a reason they all had/have perfect records and that's simply because they hadn't/haven't fought a Klitschko.
Love the Klitschko's or hate them for there fight selections now, but they got to where they are by fighting the best that was there.
Fury will crumble under the first decent right hand his pikey chin receives.
Price will likey wilt too, but his defences seem much better than Fury so maybe, just maybe, he can make us proud.
Price ain't protected, he has only had 15 fights and isn't World Level yet, to expect any fighter to get into the ring with the likes of Wlad who is the best HW in the business would be unfair and to label it as that is silly!
I'm not saying that by not fighting a Klitschko he's protected, I'm saying that he's protected by fighting below par fighters.
Sam Sexton isn't a threat and never looked likely to ever be one. Audely Harrison?? Need I say more?
Oh but I shall! Matt Skelton? Forty fucking five! Next fight? Tony Thompson 41! Althought Thompson should be a much harder test, so good to see progression.
Now I actually love Price. I think he's got talent, but the same thing is happening to him that happened to James DeGale, they're fighting opponents below there level.
Hardly fair on Price. Thompson is borderline top ten heavy. Not many fighters step up to that level after 15 fights. It's not Price's fault that the domestic scene is awful. I respect him for wanting a Lonsdale belt outright, even if he fights dross like Sexton and Skelton.
Like I said mate, Thompson will be a harder fight. I'm not trying to be harsh on price, I like him, I'm just saying that he's been protected, maybe unintentionally because of the lack of uk hw talent.
After Thompson he needs a stern test, Helenius maybe.
You say tomato,
‘n I say …… it correctly.
