I seem to recall Bilbo , you asked the rest of us about Tyson Fury after he had won his 6 fight , and Myself any many others said he lacked power to take him to the top. You didnt agree and had a go at me for slating Fury. Now it seems you agree that he is all hype ?
Please clear this up , and maybe even find the thread.
If I remember correctly it was because you were slating him after 5 fights and saying he was fighting nobodies. I pointed out that he was being moved along quite quickly and that there was nothing wrong with his opposition up to that point.

Actually that's still the case, he's very young for a heavyweight and has been moved along at a decent pace.

The McDermott fight was a poor show and I will certainly give him shit for that.

But it doesn't mean he can't or won't improve a lot in the future.

You just write everyone off as having no power to succeed. You've said the same about Amir Khan and Kell Brook if I recall.

I personally think the reasons for guys failing at the top level are a bit more complex than just not having enough power, but whatever works for you I guess.
