Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury Confident of Being Heir To Klitschko Throne

[LacedUp]

He was an elite cruiserweight.

Cunningham was cruiserweight champion, avoided by David Haye when he was in that division.

Haye lied about being "undisputed" he ducked the naturally smaller American and never had Cunningham's IBF belt.

He was never an elite cruiserweight.

Yeah alright, I'll take that with a pinch of salt. Especially coming from someone who once said Haye moved to heavyweight
to avoid Adamek

Even though Haye fought at HW before Adamek fought at CW

You do realize that you discrediting Fury's best opponent to date, don't you? I also find it hilarious as I do ridiculous that anyone would suggest that Wlad is somehow afraid of Fury. This is just another example of how British fight fans somehow confuse trash talking with actual accomplishments in the ring.

Im simply asking what skills? Instead of going on a totally useless rant just tell me what skills he has? Cunningham is a totally basic fighter, I could care less if you think he's Fury's best win. The truth is the truth.

Where have I claimed Wlad is afraid of Fury?

Another forgettable post from Ravens fan.

No way Fury faces a puncher whilst sat waiting on his mandatory,which lets be honest could be over 12 months.Browne,Wach and Tarver are all heavy hitting big men recognised for notable KO wins.

Ustinov is the go to guy with their prior history.upon realising the behemoth has nothing in his armoury that can trouble the Brit I expect their initial fears will be dispelled,and potentially he will be in line for a summer or possibly the February date.

Fury can gain serious momentum towards building up his title shot with a win over the eastern euro giant.

All these fools downplaying Ustinov in their agenda of undermining Pulev's achievement in stopping him will be building Ustinov up as an exceptional win for Fury,should that fight take place.

Do I believe Fury was scared ? No.concerned,yes.i genuinely believe it was a duck,Fury has been so carefully matched to date,he never had any intentions of facing Pulev upon learning his USS fight was sanctioned an IBF eliminator and semi to face Pulev himself,after the name he had built up after becoming the first to stop Dimitrenko and Ustinov.

Fury is chinny,their is no hiding from or behind anything to avoid the cold hard fact he has a glass chin,he looked visibly shook against the likes of USS and Abell.dropped hard by pillow fisted 200 lb guys like USS and Pajkic ! Does anybody not understand his handlers reluctance in matching him against tougher opposition before guiding him to his first real pay day.

You like cold, hard facts Scotty? Here's a couple for you to get your head around:
1. Tyson Fury has been competing in boxing's heaviest weight division since he was 17 yo, against international amateurs and world class pros.
2) Tyson Fury has never been KO'd, amateur or pro. Not once.

Another totally stinking post from Ravens fan.

Geez, you are really overly sensitive! And to think you had once, not in the to distant past, asked me to vote for you as the best poster on the forum. I guess that means we are no longer friends??

I also deleted your request. But only after I was able to stop laughing long enough to do so. I figured you must have sent it my way by mistake. But it still kind of makes me chuckle when I think about your ridiculous request. So, thanks for the laugh.

As far as Steve is concerned he could be the most basic least skilled boring a$$ boxer in the history of the sport and guess what? Based on his actual accomplishments in the ring he would still be the best opponent that Fury has ever fought. But wait didn't Chisora almost beat the "Nordic Wet Dream" a few yea.....never mind.

Fury is garbage. He talks to much. Cunningham put him on his back pockets. Wait till he gets in there with the big boys. Its over for him. B fighter at best.

[low blows]

Wladimir Klitschko has offered Fury a fight in the past, and been turned down.

Fury has a big mouth, but doesn't back up his words.

And Fury has also ducked Pulev and Ustinov.

He probably low balled Fury who is a huge draw in England. Why would Fury take 1 million Euros to fight Wlad as a voluntary defense when he can earn minimum double that in a purse bid. Also he could get a decent upside with PPV revenue from England.

Oh please. Why are you lying?

I have never ever asked anyone, let alone you to vote for me as poster of the year. I may have asked you to vote for the best poster, but never have I asked you or anyone else to vote for me specifically.. But I guess it's pretty convenient that you "deleted it".

Once again, all I ask is what skills does Cunningham have? It seems like you don't want to answer that question. And you also seemed to suggest I said Wlad was scared of Fury. Where did I say it? Just provide me with some proof.

In fact, the very other day I said Wlad probably doesn't think Fury is that impressive and hence doesn't really see a reason to fight him. But whatever.

Is Cunningham the best guy on Fury's resume? Overall, possibly. I don't think he'd beat Chisora or Johnson but that's just my opinion. I have never ever said that fury's resume was good anyway, but I have probably said he has the best resume of anyone Wlad hasn't fought.

USS would box Kingpin's ears off.

I made one statement about what you said and it had nothing to do with how skilled Steve may or may not have been. Therefor, I felt no reason to share my opinion on his skill set. With that said I have no problem sharing my opinion with you.

You are claiming that Steve is not an elite fighter. In my opinion that would depend on how you define elite. When it has to do with boxing my definition is simple. And that is has a fighter beaten other top fighters. As far as Steve is concerned the answer is yes.

Steve beat two cruiserweights that are still ranked in the top five by Ring magazine. One of them is also still a champ and the other one just lost his belt. He has also fought in eight world title fights. He is only batting 500 in those fights but from what I understand a couple of them were very bad decisions that he should have won. But I did not watch all of them so I don't have an opinion on them.

Steve also fought a close fight with Adamek and if not for the knockdowns he would have won the first fight. As far as the second fight is concerned many believe that Steve out boxed Tomasz and easily won the second fight. I disagree but I am also a big Adamek fan and therefor I happen to be very biased towards him.

Steve was also good enough to be winning his fight with Fury on the cards when the fight was stopped. As we all know Fury was six inches taller and outweighed him by forty pounds. He is also supposedly a top five heavyweight. Steve was also past his prime and yet he was still winning the fight.

With that said. It is my opinion to accomplish what he has in his career that yes Steve has some decent skills and was at one time an elite fighter. I also believe that in his prime he would have easily beaten Chisora and Kevin "I'm Only Here for the Paycheck" Johnson. And why? Because none of them have any real power and Steve is clearly the better boxer.

As for what I said about Wlad, go back and look I quoted the highlighted sentence of your post. The other part I was speaking in general to the British fans and not you directly. I guess I should have started another paragraph but I thought that it was obvious.

As far as the voting thing is concerned. I honestly don't remember how you worded it and I have deleted it. But you did attempt to solicit votes from me. And for who? Considering the fact that you are the only one that has ever done that and the fact that you have an enormous overinflated ego, my guess is that you were looking for votes for yourself. Why else would you do it? By the way did you win? Don't bother answering that question because I truly, truly do not care!
