    I can understand why people would not enjoy Tyson Fury's fighting style, but imagine a shorter, weaker, smaller, all round inferior version of Tyson Fury who can only run, never engage who has absolute pillow fists.

    Plus, the way he looks makes me want to throw up - he looks like Leatherface from the old Texas Chainsaw Massacre
    Personality does count. I've seen Tyson from the beginning when he almost KOed himself by an uppercut. He's likable.

    I only knew Huggie from reading about him in connection with Tyson. The only time I saw him for one round or less was against Parker. I changed the channel. That Parker guy isn't much either. I don't know what people see in him.

      Bradley is retired, he ain't coming back.

      My vote goes to coWard, stay away!

        Brook - his eye can't withstand the slightest bit of damage and will be a constant target in his next fight.

        Fury - he's unofficially retired, but he should announce it instead of BSing his fans

          I saw that guy in one of his early, mid-career fights (when he was supposed to be good), but he was terrible. Heard it went downhill from there, even the Brits couldn't hype him anymore. No boxing skills.

          I didn't add him because he was never relevant.
          David hits hard, then tire out around the middle of round 2.

                Floyd and Manny for good these two have ruined PPV for other in coming fighters. You know if Floyd is crying about the money that hood rat stole from him than you know he's going broke again and will pick some dud to fight

                  This list makes no sense. You want Groves and DeGale to retire in their primes?

                    I think the Mexican warrior can still kick a few more asses.

                    Shannon Briggs can go anytime, too, although I miss his taunts to Wlad.
                    Salido is a good guy but I place him in the damaged, almost expired category. I hope he proves me wrong when he fights a good fighter.

                      I'm not basing that on age, but these guys have been around for so long, and their punch resistance isn't all there like it used to.

                      They are, no doubt, pretty tough fighters but they won't win at the world level anymore. We can bet on the Groves-Eubank fight if you like (and DeGale when he fights someone good).
