    You think he's got the tools to become a big name?

    Watched his fight from saturday night against Nascimento, who has a good ko record but wasn't on the same level as Fury, aiming to ko Fury with big bombs that never landed. Tyson needs to be put in against better opposition.
    If you get a chance to see the ko in this fight, do, it's a great shot to end the fight.

    He was calling out Chisora on tv to man up and face him. Chisora was at the fight, but left early, probably knowing too well Fury would be calling him out and didn't want to confront him with the cameras on him. I think someone's :34:

    Chisora came back to say on tv that Fury isn't ready to face him and still has alot to learn.

    The best that can be said for him is that he's kinda like one of those amazing website domains going to waste....such a shame that a guy with a name like that is such total, unmitigated garbage.

    He's carrying some extra baggage that have probably been caused by a good few trips to burger king, but does pack immense power.

    He has a nice relaxed punching style, he appears to have a decent chin, so far. He is handsome and can talk and thats always nice. His lineage, specifically his parentage, is what worries me. His dad is thick as a moat. He needs to move to America, get quality sparring and some conditioning. Too easy to hit right now and in too much of a comfort zone.

    I do like the way he lets his hands go sometimes, but you're right, he gets hit a fair bit. His latest opponent was pretty shite to be honest, just trying to throw haymakers [I couldn't remember him landing one], and his balance was terrible. Against better opponents who possess a jab, better movement and balance, we'll know more.

    Maybe..he is faster, punches harder, not as clumsy, can throw a punch and not be completely off balance, better right hand.... so yeah he is much, much better than Tye Fields Version 2.3. Still makes him a BUM...

    Fury, with his size, really could make his jab a lethal weapon.

    He's exciting, would love to see him vs. Areola in an ESPN undercard fight.

    No, Zab Judah has a better one.

    With around 57 seconds left in the first, Judah clocks himself.
