Wilder & Fury go at it on twitter

[El Kabong]

According to Fury, while he was shouting at Cunningham and Richardson in the press comference, he said the only reason he is having to resort to fighting a chinny cruiserweight is because Arreola, Adamek, Stivern and Wilder turned the fight down and Cunningham was the only one willing to take the fight. Even Cunningham himself said that no other top heavies want to risk it against Fury because of his size. That is a compliment because there have been some massive men recently that are just shit. Its not just his size that is putting them off its the skills that are progressing.

On one of the comments underneath the press conference video, someone has pointed out how confused Nazim looks and sounds when Fury says that Cunningham isnt as good as Kevin Johnson and how he beat him every round. It looks like Nazim didnt even realise that Fury had fought and beat Johnson.

He should focus on who is infront of him and not talk so much shit about other fighters because he will look very stupid if he slips up and loses.

I agree absolutely about the skills not progressing that's 100% why Wlad and Vitali have had such an easy go of it...they are greatly skilled. Yes, yes, I know everyone hates them or complains about them but they are truly skilled heavyweights. There's not many holes in their game. Wlad is chinny but you've got to find a way to get your power punches to land on his chin and THEN you have to follow up, much easier said than done. Usually the smaller heavyweights are better technical fighters, guys like Adamek, Povetkin, Haye, Chagaev, Chambers, etc...perhaps Cunningham could outbox Fury, I doubt it because of Tyson's size & strength, but you never know.

As for Wilder he's very raw but like Price he has game changing power and he seems to be able to connect pretty well....eventually he'll need a plan B but right now he's a threat to damn near everyone with that power even Wladimir....chances are Wlad's brain carries that fight easily, but the element of danger is there.

If the heavyweights are going to continue not facing each other with any kind of regularity.... they may as well fight it out on Twitter.

Fighting it out on Twitter usually means somebody winds up showing their ass.
Stupid idea in my opinion, why disrespect each other when there I no money involved. YET!

So they can bitch about each other with millions of followers watching, thus building a future fight. It'll mean more money in the future.

I don't do Twitter or Facebook or carry any hand held gadgets of any kind. When I write a letter I do so with a PEN.

I think twitter/social media wars between fighters are lame.

Could be.

Like him or loath him Fury is a character and I hope he is successful in the game as we need these fights in the future. It will be exciting if they live up to their hype.

Does Fat Mick not realise , when we said we wanted to see Fury against a puncher ,
TWITTER is not what we had in mind.

The jury is really out on Wilder. How's his chin? Can he box rounds? We literally have no idea. Fury has a much deeper resume than Wilder and that is saying something.
