Hughie. Ready for Price?

I do agree that fury and his promoter want nothing to do with tony the tiger.

Fury is good and he must be better than david price when you look at the opponents they have faced but he wants no part of an old dangerous fighter in tony thompson.

I'm glad you agree with me

However, who has Fury fought that poses as much of a threat as Thompson? Chisora? Johnson? Cunningham? None of those guys are as good as Thompson

To be fair these fighters are not that far off the level of Thompson.

Yeah....yeah they are. Cunningham hasn't proven much at heavyweight and he wasn't all that powerful of a cruiserweight. Kevin Johnson never lets his hands go. Dereck Chisora is mentally unstable. Tony Thompson at least ACTS like a professional. He shows up to every fight, he's always in decent shape, he has only ever been stopped twice (both by Wladimir) which means he is competitive, and he's not afraid of taking seemingly dangerous fights and actually trying to win them.

I think Fury beats him.

Fucking hell! After his last showing against Pulev? Who who want to watch Thompson?

It's not about "who wants to see him" it's more on merit.

Its not merit that pays the fighters.

People pay tickets to see a fight. Not someone pick up cash.

An Adamek or Arreola would offer a name and a scrap. So will Chisora.

I dont think Thompson was in good shape for Price, I think he just hoped to do well enough and because Price is so shite, he struck gold! He didnt make much of an effort against Pulev and it would be the same against Fury.

Yeah because Fury is such a polished boxer

ADAMEK?!?! Fury is 6'9 and you want him to fight ANOTHER cruiserweight?!?!? Why bother? Fighting Thompson might actually prepare him for a fight vs Wlad but if Fury doesn't want that then he can go ahead and do the Butterbean route....that's just about as much skill as he has anyway
