    How long did he have with Sugar last time? A month or so, perhaps a tad longer, and he learned and executed a completely different style of boxing, flawlessly.

    I'd argue that Fury is the most talented & skilled boxer in the sport, in any division.

    Imagine what he's going to be like after another couple of camps? These HWs are all going to get smashed to bits.
    Absolutely. I’ve always said If you look at his overall skill set, he can switch hit flawlessly, fight Inside or outside, great feet, high IQ’s, excellent defence, can fight backwards or forwards. Great punch resistance and recovery. Heart of a lion.

    There’s a lot of excellent fighters that can do some of those things very well but not all of those things. Even Loma has shown he can’t do all of those things.

    The only other fighter with that many strings to the their bow might be Crawford, but even he hasn’t done it to the level Fury has in terms of opposition.

    Fury is the most complete fighter in boxing. He is absolutely levels above the rest of the division. AJ is considered top 2 or 3 and he’s so basic in comparison.

      How is it right to be confused by simple words.
      "Dem fite free timer" would be preferable to you?

      Me am tuff, me not no big words cos them is fur sissees.

      You can be tough and intelligent, they aren't mutually exclusive.

      Translation:
      U can have big brainy box (not be dum dum) and still be big, strong man. You no have 2 chuus betwein.

      The Harry Potter book "the Philosopher's stone" was released in America as "the Sorcerer's stone" because they didn't think American kids would know what "philosopher" meant.
      Well they never will know what it means if they aren't introduced to the word.
      "Mum (sorry) Mom, what does philosopher mean?" problem solved, new word learnt, an extra word in the kids vocabulary. Why pander to ignorance?

        A little off topic, but when Emmanuel Steward was alive they just called him Sugar Hill. About a year or so ago he picked up Steward. I know Sugar Hill is Emmanuel's nephew and has always been at Kronk. Its just odd that now Steward is added..
        Doesn't really mean crap, was just wondering.
        it does mean something though, because Steward isn't even his name. It's Javan Hill. Sugar was his nickname. That's why when they started talking Sugarhill Steward I didn't know who the **** they were talking about. Even when he was in Adonis' corner they never called him Steward.

          To be honest and I may be well off the mark with this, I found it a little pretentious - given the value/pedigree of the name 'sugar' in boxing circles.

          That said, if Andy Ruiz ever changed his name to Sugar Diabetes I wouldn't bat an eyelid.

                  It was definitely odd when I first heard it because I had known him as Sugar Hill up until that and then one fight they were referring to him as Sugar Hill Steward (I think it was the same Stevenson fight you mentioned).

                  His mom was a Steward, and I guess his father (the source of the Hill) wasn't in his life much. I guess it made sense to me when I heard the circumstances because my niece did the same thing. Her father in wasn't a big part of her life and she wanted to be known by her mom's (my sister) last name.

                    Oh it does happen, I've seen it a lot too. I just don't recall ever seeing someone do it in their forties lol
