    I liked his performance last night.

    Belshaw had no answers to Fury's jab. I was wondering what his defence was? No head movement, no block, no parry?

    Fury has got some lovely punches in his armour. Nice jab, left hook to the head, right uppercut and left hook to the body.

    Very good, and also got out of the way of Belshaw's haymaker hooks.

    Fury kind of flinches when under attack, which I'm not so sure about, but he's a good fighter.

    That's the one thing we really need to see before we can make any real judgements on the lad is him under a sustained attack, and having to defend. Not the odd one or two shots which Belshaw sneaked through last night, but a flurry of five or six shots four or five times in a round. As was raised by McGuigan I think, he also tends to retreat with his head held away from his opponent rather than tucked in on his chin.

    However, so far so good for the big lad, Belshaw should have been a step up in class, but he cruised through it, and those body shots looked really hard.

    You know what, i've noticed that. Strange, looks kind of worried almost. A Kahn does a similar type of thing.

    Tyson looked very good. His jab and movement is really good for a big man and he seems to pick his spots. I was disapointed that Belshaw folded so easily.

    Well the White George Foreman didn't live upto his name.

    Id predict Fury to win inside 3.

    Id like to see Fury v Mcdermott next.
    Dont suppose anyone found a bookie taking bets on this? Ive had no luck. Dont see why to be honest, Furys has easier fights and Ive been able to get a bet on. Only thing I can think of is that its tucked away on ITV4 rather than Sky but still surprising.
    I am suprised to, i tried all the sites.www.oddschecker.comwww.betfairare the two who usually cover everything but no nothing, like i said it must be because there is no point in making a book as the odds would be so terrible for a fury win.
    I couldn't make out why it wasn't priced up either. They've priced up all his other matches, and do plenty of silly 1/100 shots

    Fury's hand speed is gonna give all the other Brit plod prospects barney. Would like to see him and Chisora now!!!

    Chisora didnt fancy it at all when asked, did you see it? If the moneys right lol

    Id like to see that, i think he beats everyone, how about a fight with Audley or even Rogan after his defeat?

    At this stage of his career, I think Fraud would be the better choice out of the two.

And he didn't seem overly keen when asked if he fancied taking Fury on in the near future, I think he should look at that Butlin. He seems like he can take a shot and could possibly push Fury over 8 rounds.

    Fury looked GOOD!! Nothing bad to say about that performance tonight.

    He always did that thing while backing up. I thought his chin was hidden pretty well behind his shoulder when he was retreating - He just needs to watch for long left hooks in that stance.
