1980 Larry Holmes vs 2016 Tyson Fury

[ross]

Holmes felled the Giant Cooney, but Fury is even more "gianter"

Fury is also better than Cooney.

Holmes struggled with quite a few fighters. Spinks he couldnt deal with the movement. Would be interesting but Fury is still maturing with each fight and by next year people will be saying that he would give anyone in history a tough time. They said that about Klitschko but even though Fury beat him easy its going to take a while to sink in, as it did with Klitschko and Lewis before him.

I do not think Fury will have the longevity that Holmes had I feel Fury will burn out like Mike Tyson did.

Probably not because he holds more than one belt unlike Holmes who never unified!

We will see but Fury has issues in his life, short temperament and achieved his lifelong ambition.

Fury strikes me as a beer swillin' rover with a piss poor diet to boot.

He's probably turning up a bucket of ale to wash down that roasted pig as we speak.

Back to the days of John L Sullivan.
