    Ah sorry, all those fights are on Boxnation, for £12, so they are good fights for me :lol:

    Not bad action there, as long as Alvarez vs Mosley comes off, which it probably won't :crying:

    Worst year ever. I like Kessler, but fuck KESSLER fighting Alene GreenGREEN is easily one of my least favorite fighters ever. I remember some of you douche bags saying he was this monster, lol. Some of you just don't know shit.

    Cinderella Man isn't likely to do the trick. Unless Fury comes in drunk and like 280lbs or something.

    Which reminds me- I need to get the specs off the interwebz to add Channel 5 to my Sky Box.:eek:fft:

    Fury was dominant. For such a big man, he really does have some exceptionally fast hands and fluid moves. He fought southpaw the entire fight and took Rogan out with a clean shot.

    You should watch the young guys. You are too obsessed with stars.

    Alvarez vs mosley will happen because mosley needs a last check and alvarez needs a gunshy fossil with a name.not a fight to look forward to. Just some bullshit revionsists can point to claiming mosley wasn't a killer at his peak

    Pre conte mosley destroys 99.999% of men on the planet. If you think 154lbs was mosleys peak then you don't follow the fight game

    Yeah, Mosley was only on the gear at 154. Ok. He came off it at 154.

    You're obviously the wisest most observant chap here. When did he really get on it?

    Yep, for two rounds Fury looked confused with his own style but then he settled in and looked perhaps better than before. His new, right hand jab was snappy, and his body shots hurt Rogan every time. And most importantly, he actually used distance and blocked some shots

    Only saw the highlights but Tyson Furry looked pretty good. Really nice body shot.

    Rogan is a real johnny-come-lately, he's easy to beat, but being brutally honest, neither of the Klitschkos would really have improved on that performance. Maybe Fury got hit just a bit too much, but for any heavyweight, especially 6'8" and 240 to be able to turn southpaw for an entire fight and blow the guy out like that....not bad.

    Fury is so loose for such a huge man. Once you are that big and able to move your hands so easily you generate power just off size and momentum alone.


    Its his mentality and his application that are going to cost him in the long run. He has too many nervous tics like rubbing his nose and pulling his shorts up and gesturing to the crowd.

    Money my lad, money.

    Fury has the better wins at this point in time, he deserves the fatter payday.

    Price is probably like "Worra abah dee tayme I beerim in the Ay Bee Ayz and den me limpich medal laykhe dass gorra bee werf a few quid and all layke"

    Fury is a Manure fan and Price is a Liverpuel fan....could be interesting.
