I think people are on board the fury train due to him beating klitschko and not many people thought he would. He proved the world wrong and have to respect thatComment

Oh of course, you know what you're talking about and i dont. The fact that you laugh at genetics makes me think you have never set foot in a ****ing gymComment

He's better than all of them Wilder, AJ, Ortiz & whoever else that's relevant in the HW division. He is a born and bred Boxer do your research, not a late 20 something year old fast tracked stiffy, this is Boxing and the big fat slob is masterful with his craft.Comment

Yeah but its becoming a bit too much. I picked Fury to win and rooted for him, but the rematch is still 50/50. Fury seems to be looking past the rematch and after seeing how out of shape he was at hughie's fight, half his camp will just be getting in decent shapeComment

Fury actually doesn't appeal to the lowest common denominator. That'd be fighters like Joshua who sucker in casuals impressed by muscles and early knockouts. To be a Fury fan you have to be able to appreciate and recognise the subtle skills he displays which, as this forum shows, very few people can do.It matters because it puts boxing in a bad light having someone like that as a heavyweight champion. You want a professional athlete to actually look like a professional athlete, not some slob who just rolled off the couch.
Fury appeals to the lowest common denominator and his antics have gotten predictable. And none of that **** matters if you're absolute aids to watch in the ring.
I honestly couldn't care what the heavyweight champion of the world looks like providing he's the best at what he does. If you're so concerned about boxing being put in a bad light maybe you should focus on all the other shit first like blatant corruption, fractured sanctioning bodies, fighters blatantly disrespecting weight classes etc. Having a heavyweight champ who doesn't look like they're on a ton of gear is the least of boxing's problems.Comment

When you beat the number 1 in the division you become number 1 and with that you get all the people who then think he is unbeatable. It's weird how it works. And I noticed the weight too. He said his weighing around 23 stones if I remember correctly. That's a lot of weight to lose.Comment

You're right, dressing up like Batman and rolling around on the floor at press conferences is real high brow entertainment. Takes a real high level of intelligence to soak all that in. Nothing remotely contrived about that effort at all.
And don't equate not being on gear with being a fatass. Fury looks the way he does because he's a slob with a poor diet and poor training. Go and watch videos of him training and look at how awful his form is.Comment

I'm laughing because whenever someone mentions Joshua and gear some rube always brings up "genetics", as if that excuses Joshua's blatant drug abuse. They then, inevitably, attack the poster with some assertion that they're a couch potato, never been to a gym etc, as you've just predictably done. I'm aware that genetics plays a big role in muscle development, genius, but I'm also not naïve enough to think that anyone remotely similar to Joshua has ever existed without the use of chemical assistance. But, because you clearly have years of experience in physical development, you'll no doubt prove me wrong, huh?Comment
