Toney and Floyd have/had TALENT....ask any American and they'll say "Who is Kevin Johnson?" and then after you explain it to them they will then say he is full of shit....it seems to me that many Brits do not knock the guys who are better shit talkers than fighters. You either talk shit when you plan to prove something (bad idea) or you talk after you've accomplished something (poor sportsmanship)...I think the ONLY acceptable time to talk shit is when someone is calling you out or instigates the trash talking. In this case with Fury, nobody(sane) dared use his name in the same sentence as either Klitschko's unless they said something like "Tyson Fury is nowhere near as good as the Klitschko's" and he's running off at the mouth about themIt's poor form from a guy who is right now a regional fighter, he's not a contender, he does have a little upside, but he's not a top class fighter.
I think it would still be in poor form but if David Price was talking crap that would be SLIGHTLY more acceptable because he has acheived more in the sport.
