Comments Thread For: Tommy Fury Edges KSI By Majority Decision in Lackluster Fight

[Teetotaler69]

Didn't see the fight but from what I hear Tommy fury is trash

[Butt stuff]

Nah tyson is the real deal whereas hughie and Tommy are domestic level fighters that will be lucky to be European champions

European is incredibly generous. Tommy will never even sniff a challenge at the British title, let alone win it. Maybe one of the northern area titles…?

Hughie, as awful to watch as he is, would’ve had a chance to pick up a euro title at one point. Not sure what kind of level he is these days.

to be fair whenever I've seen any footage of them sparring it's just a bit of light body sparring like you "throw one, I throw one" kind of thing...there's not really much else going on. I don't think it's actually benefiting anybody apart from, just light exercise.


I don't think it actually helps that John Fury is his trainer too, he has literally no training experience and it looks like Tommy Fury has actually gone backwards since John Fury took over

early in his career he didn't look great and wasn't fighting anyone good, as most people dont then, but he actually used his jab pretty well and had pretty decent feet and distance control, which all seems to have disappeared. That's when he was trained by Hatton, before he went on reality TV etc. Not that Tommy was ever going to be a world beta but he actually has some natural gifts that could have made him effective like his reach and jab and things like that, but everything seems to have regressed.

John Fury and his ego and love for the limelight has gone out of control though and I don't think he wants anybody else to train Tommy because he wants to be part of all of this.

Tommy Fury vs. Logan Paul next? Dunno if I can stomach another one of these social influencer fights. Imagine Tommy Fury vs. Chris Billam-Smith or Jai Opetaia.

all these youtuber fights are so painful to watch....

[Sparked_26]

Mad how much money Tommy is making really. Like he says 'there is only one Tyson Fury.'

I mean he definitely won. It is still boxing and if you are watching a sh.itshow like that you have to give it to the guy who is trying to box.

But he's got to abandon fighting pro fighters for area titles even. Just seems dangerous on that showing and he doesn't have to any way.

Tommy always looked so stiff and even at that level he was worried about the speed so wouldnt step in with his jab with any confidence. It is like he knows how to box because of his family but he has no real remarkable talent for it. The only thing he does consistently well is knowing instinctively when he is out of range and won't buy feints. You can tell he's spent a lot of time in boxing rings but it is hard to see him improving.

I'd defo just stick the youtubers.

Only a fool would try and prove something in pro boxing now. Getting pummelled for peanuts for an area title. Never gonna happen now.

[Old Spice]

yeah, Hughie is on another planet to Tommy.

Hughie isn't bad at all, it's taken solid world level fighters to beat him. He's clearly kind of euro level that can hang with B level fighters that are world level. There's no shame in that, it's actually very respectable when you consider there's 1400 active heavyweights. Hughie when active would beat Wardley and Adelaye, who are in a British title fight next.

Tommy on the other hand has found his level. Tough scraps with YouTubers that have been training for about 3 or 4 years.

No way the two can be talked about in same breath.

I agree

He's cracked it with what he's doing now. deep down he probably knows this is his level and his family know it too and probably say it. but I guess his gimmick in this whole influencer boxing scene is that he is the fury and the pro boxer, so he has to kind of keep up the image that he is the pro boxer and wants to continue in the real boxing ranks because that's a selling point in these events, but he's probably never going to do it again because why would he?

yeah like you said he has no real outstanding qualities for boxing, he just knows enough because he's been around it for so long. he's probably quite a good sparring partner in a way, someone who knows his way around the ring enough to give decent enough work to a more conventional boxer. He's probably half decent in the gym in that role.

A problem with him fighting someone like ksi is that these guys are unconventional and Tommy isn't really good enough to truly punish them for it like a pretty good fighter would, so it ends up looking scrappy and awful to watch.

I bet if you put him in with someone conventional, he would look better, Like when he had that exhibition with Rolly Lambert. He is actually a decent enough pro and Tommy could look better against someone like that because they'll box with him.

He should ride this youtube boxing game as long as he can and then just try to become a media personality or something
