    I tried to make a thread on him in NSB straight after his fight but the mods disabled starting threads.

    That was the first time I have seen him before. Was very impressed.

    He needs to step up though now.

    Apparently he had a long and succesful career in the AM'S. You know anything about his amatuer career at all?

      No I hate the amateurs with a passion, but I agree I'd like to see him step up soon.

        Who do you think he should fight?

        He needs to get some experiecne under belt before he goes near a world title shot IMO.

          Not sure really, I'd like to see him against someone like a Cristobal Cruz within a few fights time.

If you put the Klitschko's on one side, and Tye Fields on the other, Fury would probably be in the middle. I'd love to see him fight Dimitrenko to clear up the division a little. I agree about his body punching (especially for a heavyweight that tall) but his head punches are all arms with little power.
              He always seemed to be at the wrong range when throwing to the head. To close to get maximum power. He showed decent heart after being wobbled a few times and had pretty good workrate and stamina considering he was only in his 15th fight. If he doesn't get moved along to quickly he has a chance to be a decent contender in 3 years or so at least. He will definitely need more experience considering his limited talent.

                    Curious to see who makes u boys top p4p fighters....

                    I'll start

                    Floyd Mayweather to me is clearly the best fighter in the world but due to inactivity he dont make the cut this time (a good excuse to free up a space for someone else in these brutal lists!)

                    1. Manny Pac

                    2. Sergio Martinez

                    3. Nonito Donaire

                    4. Andre Ward

                    5. Bernard Hopkins

                    6. Juan Marquez

                    7. Abner Mares

                    8. Carl Froch

                    9. Amir Khan

                    10. Miguel Cotto
