    Andy lee said fury has a flick jab and they had to train that out of him and get him to throw it with more authority.

    Yes, he did seem to alright. But threw very clean and hard shots a fair bit as well..

    Then there was slappy Calzaghe...most his shots, even his jabs were incorrectly thrown..

    Calzaghe had to become Calslappy due to his brittle hands.

    Yes, that is well reported, and he mentions it in his book. Damaged and brittle hands for years, and even as an amateur..

    Why he slaps is irrelevant. I just gave him as a real strong examplee of a slapper...

    Not sure what Fury's reasons are, but he does a fair bit of slapping...

    Relax, i wasn't reprimanding you. Just adding colour to the narrative. I don't doubt you knew the reasons.

    I know you weren't reprimanding

    I was quite relaxed when I responded. Just being clear in my reply; sometimes may give an impression of being un-relaxed/ansty!

    Anyway, you took your time replying....I almost forgot...
