Nucky Thompson Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Who thinks he can make the step up in class. The boy looks like he can be an awesome heavyweight but he seems to have a big mouth. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/more-sport/boxing/2009/09/06/the-sound-of-fury-115875-21650916/ It should be a good fight, on Friday, SS2 at 10pm.

Say What Again Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 It should be a good fight, on Friday, SS2 at 10pm. Fury's heavily fancied by the bookies to beat McDonot. The best odds you can get on a Fury win are 1/5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Shows you the state of the division that he's even getting discussed. Never a world champion( I did say that about Khan though:stuart:), Good domestic fighter, at the very most if he gets lucky he might challenge for European.

Gavsy Van Gaverson Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 He's got a great name for a boxer, but he's far from great. He'll do well domestically but that doesn't really say much does it. He'll probably win the WBU European title at best (ie the one no-one really cares about). I'd take him to beat the fat lump McDermott though. Big Bad John is pony!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Juan Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 McDermott is absolutely honking - if Fury is even a decent fighter he should be demolishing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never a world champion( I did say that about Khan though:stuart:), Good domestic fighter, at the very most if he gets lucky he might challenge for European. I agree, he might not be a world champion champion but I think he will certainly get a shot at one or two. I quite like the look of him so far and I liked it when he was fighting every two months or so. That's old school and I love that ****. McDermott, although not great, is a good step up for Fury and should let us all see where he's at just now. I fancy Fury to ko him in the 2nd half.

Ibrahim Tall Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 He's nothing special but the heavyweight division is horrific, being taller or just generally bigger than anyone else generally seems to be enough to win a title at the moment so wouldn't suprise me if he did pretty well.

He's from a family of Irish travelers who were all bare knuckle fighters and boxers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was your opinion on both fighters after watching it? Great programme. I've seen a couple things on Muhammed before. My opinion is that Ali is a complete welt. I really can't see why he was so popular. He comes across as very arrogant, racist and had little respect for woman. He was a great fighter though and could take a punch. You have to feel for Frazier who is desperately punch drunk and doesn't have much cash by the look of it. Has happened a million times before in boxing.

Dusk_Till_Dawn Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 That was three and a half years ago, but I still think he'll be World champ **** me, so it was. Fury is a talentless idiot. The fact that he even has a chance of being a "world champ" is the most damning indictment of boxing you'll ever see. Over the past 10 years I've seen countless fighters on the UK scene. I could list 50 with more talent than him without even thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, but watching the Klitchko's is like watching paint dry. The heavyweight scene has been brutal for years now, the lower weights are where the fighters are.
