Tyson Fury Fans

[Primo Carnera]

I'm not sure if I can really count myself as a Fury fan as such. I like the guy, but I find his antics outside the ring more entertaining than what he does inside it. He's not exactly overly blessed with talent and has been in his share of lousy fights.

If I were him I would just try a bit of everything. Make it ugly at times and mess Wlad around, fight orthodox and southpaw and keep it long in other rounds and, if he's confident he can risk taking a shot, he should take it to him as well. Just be unpredictable and don't let Wlad settle into a rhythm.

I honestly haven't got a clue how this is going to pan out and that's what makes it interesting. Fury's chin is the biggest worry. He's been down against some light punchers, sure, but he's always got up on steady legs and got straight back into it so he seems to be able to recover pretty quickly. The trouble is, he's never been in with someone with Wlad's power before and there's no doubting that Wlad is in a different league to his previous opponents. We just don't know how good or bad Fury is. He could easily be knocked out the first time Wlad hits him with a solid shot or he could produce something no one thinks he's capable of. It's a mystery to me!

He fought Price in the amateurs and it was Price who went down it that one.

He sparred Joshua and Joshua complained that Tyson was too rough for him. Hes also sparred other good punchers. Tyson has a survival instinct and will to win.

As I said, he has recovered quickly when he's been down and has come back strong so he does have heart and a will to win. But he has been decked by light punchers and Wlad is going to hit him harder than he's ever been hit in a professional fight. There's also no getting away from the fact that his management have avoided putting him in with punchers throughout his career. His chin is a definite factor in this fight.

The thing is, Wlad doesn't have much of a chin either and has been knocked out by some very ordinary fighters himself, albeit a long time ago. If Fury hits him clean on the chin there's every chance Wlad could end up flat on his back as well. Wlad is also no spring chicken and might start feeling the pace if Fury can make life difficult for him.

I really don't know what's going to happen and that's what makes it so interesting. I'm certainly not writing Fury off like some are.

To be fair they tried to get a better name instead of Cunningham. They offered Arreola the fight among others and there is an interview with Arreolas trainer basically saying they wouldnt want to face Tyson as hed be very awkward for them.

Tyson spent most of the press conference to announce the fight ridiculing Cunningham and saying hes only a small man, a cruiser weight and that he will knock him spark out. Which he did He also praised him for being the only fighter willing to face him. Look at Haye for crying out loud, Wlads most dangerous opponent, fought Wlad with a broken toe but cant face Tyson even though Tyson fought with an identical injury in his next fight

Ross , expect a call from the Government or something because you are seriously becoming an absolute and complete expert on recycling. I reckon they may contact you on how to save the planet!!!
how you regurgitate post after post after post spouting the same old bollocks on multiple threads is a skill to be admired. you must've posted over 500 times on the same subject in different threads since this fight was made!
I salute you and admire your tenacity .
or is it that you're getting as many posts in as you can now while you're not banned?
