Comments Thread For: Fury Rejects '****house' Chisora, Vows KO of Ustinov

I think hes fought descent comp for only having 22 fights. its not like his resume is wilder like and he did try to fight haye who's definitely a top 5 heavyweight

He hasn't fought decent enough competition to run his mouth like he’s a legit contender. Maybe he’s good, but who knows until he fights someone with credibility?

yea,,I agree he spouts off at the mouth too much and disses on fighters with much more credibility than himself but I really cant diss much on his resume as hes still young and only had 22 fights and seems willing to up his competition

... seems willing to up his competition

I haven't seen any evidence of that. Just words as usual. Antonio Tarver offered to step in for Chisora. That fight would've improved Fury's profile, especially in the States... not that Tarver is all that, but at least he's a name and somebody who's been in with much better competition. Fury's all mouth.

tarver is small old and shot to bits. ustinov as slow and limited as he is is still much more dangerous than tarver would have been and a risky replacement on such short notice

True dat! But he's also been in with much higher end opposition, has greater skill & ring experience. Neither Ustinov nor Tarver are anywhere near the level that Fury says he is, but at least Tarver brings a level of notoriety. Ustinov is just a big stiff brought in for the slaughter. It's pointless nonsense that doesn't do anything to improve Fury's cred.
