    Tyson Fury is...

    No threat to the main HW contenders.

    His questionable commitment to training; lack of discipline in the ring; wide open defence; shoddy footwork; pathetic offence is no threat to any of the rounded HWs.

    The notion that Wlad is ducking this bumbling idiot is ridiculous. Wladimir would KO him with a jab.

    Similarly, claims that Haye would have struggled with this prat are laughable, too. Indeed, a one-armed Haye would probably KO him.

      I have to agree with this.

      Here is the man who KOs him in the next 18 months.

        Well, that's pretty obvious.

            The sad thing is, Joshua looks more rounded than Fury already.

            Fury is just so open, any HW, in shape, and with power will finish him. He's had some lucky escapes so far. Chisora stops him in the rematch.

              Fury beats Wilder, I'll leave it at that.

                While I agree that Fury has obvious weaknesses, anyone thinking he would fight against a top tier HW like he fought tonight is an idiot.

                  I don't think the first is necessarily true. AJ can be a bit stiff - too many 1-2s. I mean, that's not a bad thing, but look at hughie - how smooth he looks and how he mixes it up.

                  Don't get all the hate on Fury, I mean, he showed up when it got tough. He didn't hide or anything. I liked what I saw, he has obviously worked on his jab. He's pretty quick on his feet and throws a decent right hand.

                  take 20 pounds off him and you'll see a pretty decent fighter.

                  Compare him to the fat, useless sob who fought McDermott in 2010 and see how far he's gone.

                    Silly to judge him on a fight like this.

                    He quite clearly couldn't be arsed for this fight and came in the heaviest he has in his career.

                    Prior to this he was in the best shape of his life for Haye.

                    Not saying he's good enough to beat Wlad but he most certainly is a threat to the main HW contenders.
