24-0, 6'5, 24-year-old, top 10 ranked by a few alphabets?

At least Arum's not letting him fight geratric, part time, cruiserweights which is normally the case when Fury gets to pick opponents.

I don't blame Fury, he's been offered a shit load of money so he moves to ESPN . If that means he doesn't fight Wilder or Joshua , it's not his fault. But this is how it's gonna be from now on. Guys paid a fortune and facing unknowns and the big fights are gonna be left to "marinate". it's a fucking joke all round and the only losers are the very people who are financing all of this.........The Punters!

Had to look at a couple fights. His fight with Dashi(?) looked like he initially flopped..complete with hands thrown in the air after an inside butt and ends up fighting off some opposition corner people after eventual DQ was announced. For a big guy he moves a lot. Pretty much a bunch of flick jabs and right hands. Definitely doesn't look the sort to attack Fury who should take him to school.

Strange work from ESPN, offer fury a lot of quids and then take on a German fellow who is totally unknown in America. I find it a weird backwards step for fury. He was going to get paid well for the rematch with wilder but wotever... I have been following Tom Schwarz he's not terrible but just not that good and hasnt really taken on good competition, he's a big fellow though and not a fatty, seems to be a powerful fellow though but a bit slow and only throws the jab straight well everything seems a bit awkward :S... If fury beats him well which I think he will then I would say that's impressive from fury rather than Schwarz just being a donkey.... Wouldn't be surprised if schwarzs knocks him down either.

What an abortion of a fight.

"Eddie Hearn slams Tyson Fury’s choice of opponent"



As well he should. F*cking disgraceful is what it is. Two steps forward and five steps back. That's the story of heavyweight boxing these days.

Who is Wilder signed with? ESPN as well?

He has a short deal with showtime, who knows what he will do once that's over.
