6' 9'' Tyson Fury turns pro!!

[yvonne]

He has got Lee Swaby.

Lee Swaby for a pro debut? That's a pretty ambitious first fight even if Swaby is a former cruiserweight.

He's awkward enough and tough enough to give a new young kid problems over 4 or 6 rounds.

They must rate Fury pretty highly if they think he can turn pro this week and at no notice just turn up and knock Swaby out on Saturday.

Will watch with interest.

He has got Lee Swaby.

Aye Swaby is tough as old boots and very dangerous especially in the early rounds.He likes to fight thats for sure.Fury will have to keep his concentration up and if he just uses his long reach advantage and box Swaby then he should be fine!!Im really looking forward to this!

Not sure what happened with Lee Swaby, but Tyson was the first fight on the TV on ITV4 for the Froch undercard and looked very good. Some very strong shots and finished with a very hard shot to the body, of his Hungarian opponent Bela Gyuoguosi. Not the toughest introduction, but very impressive from the big guy.


Tyson says: "I got a few jabs going and that, and realised he was a bit weak. I'm glad I was able to box on this wonderful bill."

Yeah he looked very rangy and had a good jab and keep busy on his feet.He looked a bit flabby around the waist line than i thought he would!!See what happens to him.I'll keep a close eye on him.He's massive for his age

Well, as Mick Hennessy said after the fight, they brought him back early from his honeymoon to make his pro debut on a tv card with plenty of exposure, like this one. I imagine he'll look a bit tighter and more ripped when he's training properly.

[rowlesy]

For someone his size, I was very suprised with his hand speed. Agree that he looked quite flabby, but he apparently didn't train properly for the fight as he just came back from honeymoon. If he can get himself into shape and have a couple of good training camps, hopefully we'll have a decent prospect on our hands.

[Plopeater]

Was quite impressed with what I saw, but only as far as the quality of his opponent who was 191lbs

[Fenster]

As rowlesy said, for a giant his hand speed is (surprisingly) impressive.

He's started out with a reputation/story.. be interesting to follow.

i seen tyson win the abas and i personaly think hes no were near as good as all the hype surrounding him. the hypes just cuz of hes name and hes size he is a decent boxer aswell dont get me wrong. i think he will do good on a domestic level but go no further just my opinion.

Hooters of Nottingham?!?!?! You guys have slutty looking girls and overpriced wings at your Hooters too??

[JT Rock]

His defensive shell and way he transitions to uppercuts has shades of Floyd Mayweather jr to it

Its hard to think Fury is only 20 years old.He'll still be growing in height and body mass.I'd like to see Fury losing a little more flab at the waist and packing a bit more muscle on his arms.I'll be watching closly from now on though.Speaking of which,when is his next bout?Anyone know?
