Fury fought Johnson who is about the same level as Thompson but younger and Fury came through that test with flying colours.
    Ummmm yeah I'm going to have to go ahead and declare shenanigans on that statement. Kevin Johnson is nowhere near Tony Thompson's level. Johnson had potential, Thompson actually reached his.

    By getting knocked out twice?

    Also, "its not about who they fought but how they looked doing so"? Absolute bullshit!

    If that was the case Butterbean knocking out all those journey men meant something on the world level?.

    Its down to results. Price looked good against who? Sexton, Skelton, Harrison etc, who wouldnt have? As soon as he goes anywhere near someone who got knocked out in a world title challenge he falls apart

    Kevin Johnson is shit, he fights in a negative style and he has no power but he makes up for it by being lazy in the ring. So he was never going to KO Fury and he was never going to win on points either. Let Fury step up to Tony Thompson and then we'll see how he does.

    At the end of the day all that matters is #1 and that's Wladimir and he's continue to be #1 til he retires.

    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    IT's not always the ranked fighters who are the most capable in the division..

    Amir Mansour is the best HW outside the Klits at the moment..

    ....also 6'1 and weighing in the 220's.....get the fuck outta here with that Mansour bullcrap!


    You're telling me a 40 year old who is BARELY a heavyweight is the next best thing to The Klitschko's? There's probably 20-30 heavyweights that could beat Mansour right now outside the Klitschko's. Mansour is no different than Faruq Saleem

    Vitali is going to put a hurting on Stiverne despite being old. Adamek would probably get beaten by Haye, Fury, and Price.
