    Well that was entertaining. My Channel 5 went off after the first round and didn't come back on until the beginning of the 5th. The stoppage looked premature but I did miss 3 and a bit rounds so I don't know how badly Firtha was getting beaten. Thanks a lot Channel 5.

    I was rowing and missed the first three rounds, four and five looked great though.

    He is an exciting fighter to watch.

    Mick Hennesy looks more ridiculous every time he's broadcast.

    Were you having an argument or sitting in a boat?

    You missed an exciting fight, Tyson is very raw but will get there in the end.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Tyson Fury was in bid trouble indeed at the end of 3rd round and just because Firtha couldn't keep going on in 4th round saved Fury to being mauled and propably knocked out. The ref of the fight made very controversial decision to stop the fight at 5th round. Surely Tyson Fury was dominating that round clearly but comparing what happened just 6 minutes before the fight should have been continued.

    I tried to make some comparisons between Tyson Fury and Robert Helenius. Fury is using his jab more eagerly than Helenius. He also have 6 inches reach advantage (Helenius 79", Fury 85"). However Fury has style making him vulnerable as we saw in the 3rd round. Helenius so far has never made such big mistakes and used to get him off the hook. No doubt crowd like this kinda style but Tyson Fury will soon have to pay high price of it. Firtha couldn't take a change in 4th round but there are surely boxers who could have destroyed Tyson Fury at Kings Hall, Belfast.

    same here mate managed to get my bro to email me a stream but still missed 3rd and 4th rounds.

    Looked a bit early to be stopped but Fury is definitely improving.
