    I think if Fury went * for leather he'd be very vulnerable. Wilder will give it 50 rapid before his Beg Ben hour hand arms get near a counter punch.

    I want him to fight AJ though, he'll totally destroy the myth.

    You're * yerself admit it, bet you even bet against him if he fights AJ :RedFinger

    Why the * they booing Wilder? He just said we'll fight soon. I don't think the crowd can be bothered with this pantomime pish, they want the main event.

    You don’t know your boxing mate eh. Fury is an incredibly talented fighter. He’ll box Wilder’s ears off.

    Il be happy to place a friendly wager on with you if you like :67:

    You are right, I don't understand the technicalities of boxing but I know a boring as * fighter when I see one. That Klitschko fight they keep saying was brilliant was absolutely mind numbingly boring, Fury is just a spoiler, the Chelsea of boxing.

    It matters not a jot. He doesn’t fight to KO. He fights to win.
    There’s more to boxing mate than muscles and KO’s. Fury is a genuinely world class, talented boxer

    Fury is still a couple of levels below his peak. Hopefully the title shot helps motivate him to get up to that level again.

    Good run out for him tonight though. If he takes the title surely that would be the best comeback since Foreman.

    He's at the wind up then.

    Is Frampton winning this fight do you think ?

    I’m at the wind up :56: just because it was GBX tunes.

    On paper he does but I think it may be tougher than most people are expecting.

    I always said if Fury is 60-70% of his best he’ll dispose of Wilder and AJ ... easily.
    So for the fight in November. I’m highly optimistic for the gypsy king.

    He would need to win the title & invent a new style griddle to top foreman.
