    Fury is miles away from what he was. Looking very slow, sluggish and not calculated. It might help if he took it a bit serious.

    Going off what I have seen so far he has next to no chance against the other two..

    Did ye expect anything else lads?

    I would have assumed he'd be a little faster and less sluggish considering he's shed a tonne of the blubber.

    He still had moobs though

    Any chance of a fight breaking out somewhere to liven this up?

    Fury is like a j4 prop lumbering from ruck to ruck, clearly not interested in doing anything of note.

    Very boring.

    A decent fooking Middleweight would take this lad out...

    Because Fury is fighting safe? You're having a laugh.

    The commentators are explaining why he is "breaking his opponents down slowly".

    Looks about a step or two away from novelty fights . Fury vs 2 welters anyone? :) (that autocorrected to welders first. He's already fighting those)


    Probably be 2 flyweights as a better balance :)

    Sad seeing this when you look back at the performances vs the likes of Chisora and Hammer


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,022 ✭✭✭anthonyjmaher


    The commentators are really annoying with their "controlling the narrative". Making excuses to counter the argument from the "people out there who will be saying that he should have taken them out of there". Just commentate on the fight, stop trying to justify Fury's performance before the fight has even finished.

    To boxing fans this isn't sad in the slightest. Has he even lost a round yet going into the final one?


  • Registered Users Posts: 38,247 ✭✭✭✭Guy:Incognito


    How much could a guy expect to make for getting tapped on the top of the head by fury out for a walk for 10 rounds?

    Might throw them an email tomorrow......

    Shades of Satan fighting in South Park, oh you got me now I go back to hell a much richer prince of darkness. Boxing isn't a ppv sport any more unless it's a novelty fight or a grudge match bouts like this are terrestrial at best.

    Unless I am way off I’d fear for Fury’s safety vs. Wilder!

    Yep and I would be saying the same as them with it on mute.

    Fury by decision @ 3/1 was as good of odds you'll get.

    People acting like he didn't fight like this vs Klitschko and win easily.

    At this stage of his career his fights should be all title fights or defences, not exhibitions to warm up the crowd for a proper fight.

    Imagine if you were a fury fan paying to travel to see this stuff (though it'd be easy to say thatd be your own fault seeing as everyone knew what was going on)

    Thing is, Fury's next fight will probably be ppv


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,681 ✭✭✭Try_harder


    That was a bit pathetic announcement


  • Registered Users Posts: 54,495 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    Ok,

    The fight is on...

    Either it’s on or Fury goes on another bender..

    He’s knocking Wilder our yet couldn’t put a dent in a complete tomato can...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,681 ✭✭✭Try_harder


    So Vegas then

    Oh dear, that was just awful. Whether thats the fault of Fury or Pianata is hard to tell. Hopefully the next match is a lot better.
