    Donnell Holmes is not bad at all, not at this level, he was robbed when he cut Minto with a punch that stopped the fight, yet was ruled a headbutt. It was in Minto's hometown. The scores are also a bit unfair as it looked even at that point. I suspect that either Hennessey doesn't realize this guy is better than he looks or we have a genuine fight on here (we usually do with ShoBox) and I'll tip my hat to Fury if he wins.

    I've started a new job, so with balancing my time with that and my boxing, I just don't get the time to be on here. How've you been mate?

    Love Tyson Fury to be honest - he is the village idiot that you want to do well. He won my heart after blubbing like a little girl when he beat John McDermott. If he worked on his stamina and conditioning (so he is't fucked after four rounds), he could be a very good boxer imo. Oh and needs to stop the Ali shuffles - regardless of how funny they look on tv.

    He is a funny fucker this is a line from his interview he did at boxrec:

    “I thought I boxed quite well against McDermott but when you’re doing as much shagging as me it’s important that you have strong legs. If I’m honest I was absolutely f****d from the fourth round due to the lack of preparation and I was close to defeat but I knew that McDermott was just as f****d as me. To beat me it’s quite simple, you’ve got to knock me out, because if you don’t I’ll keep going and eventually I’ll knock you out instead which is exactly what happened against McDermott," said Fury

    But he never knocked McDermott out, right? So WTF is he he talking about. And what a ninny, he open;y admits to not being able to box for more than 12 minutes and he's a professional athelete


    Why is this guy heralded at all, I may never know. All I can see is a tall man. And did he really try and call out Brian Minto?? He's got more problem than stamina if that's the case!
    "Floyd needs to inject Xylocaine into his balls to gain the courage to fight Pacquiao."

    - and I quote from some random guy on the internet
