6 foot 9 inch Tyson Fury(aged 20, and 18 stone)turned pro yesterday after signing up with boxing promotor Mick Hennessy!Hennessy said that Tyson Fury is the next Lennox Lewis of the british heavyweights and he also mentioned that Fury could well fight as early as Saturday night on the undercard of Carl Froch vs Pascal fight!!Sound really good

We'll just have to wait and see what Fury does so far he's a lot like David Haye, I've heard a whole bunch of hype but have yet to see much of anything. It's good there is a youngster with that much buzz around him though.

If all goes well and Fury gets the green light from his boxing medical and registration before satuday then Tyson Fury will have his first pro debut on Froch's undercard on saturday night!We'll soon find out.

I'm not as concerned about just one fight... I want to know how he does for 10 fights, 20 fights, a couple years in the sport etc. before I pass judgement on him.

Aye,true!It'll be good to see his foundations of his natural style and power as well as ability come saturday if or when he fights!He looks rangey(has long arms)He should do well in all!

Just hope he doesn't get roped into the british heavyweight merry-go round, although he's probably in better hands than in the Warren camp at the moment. IF he fights on Saturday, I hope he gets some of the coverage on ITV4, be good to see him even if he is just blasting out some journeyman.

To claim mhe is the next Lennox Lewis is bold...also one that can hurt a young fighters psyche....A lot of expectations to live up to especially for such a young guy
