Comments Thread For: Joshua: Fury Went Pro in 2008, Never Thought I Would Catch Up To Him

[MUNG]

joshua's right he's done very well making his way from a late start, very well because of his fans, his talent, he's a very good boxer and hearn setting things up, fury is a totally different person, he's a bit mad i think, as in crazy, i not convinced he's totally committed to the sport either in the past, maybe now he is settled down a bit more and is looking good again, we shall see if he can keep it going, i have my doubts, 2 more fights and i could see him retiring, i always remember the interview where he said he's not like vlad klit, who lives and breathes boxing, joshua is like that

Can these two divas shut the fcuk up and actually fight each other? Whats the damn hold up. And we wonder why boxing is getting slaughtered by the UFC in terms of mainstream popularity. Those guys actually fight each other.

I don't want to see him retire. I hate it when David Haye use to do this. I want him to settle down, beat a few contenders and give others a chance at the belt. I don't like it when champions talk about retirement when they have others waiting in the wing for a challenge, at least defend your belts and then swim to the ocean.

He seems to forgot tht fury became world heavyweight champion for the first time 5 years ago. He managed to catch up cuz fury been inactive for 3 years after tht

That's no body's fault. He is still right in his assessment which ever way you see it.
They are on par despite turning pro 4/5 years earlier.
Facts don't lie.

Seems like a pre-planned excuse in case he loses. 'I started boxing much later than him he has more experience, I'm still learning on the job. I've learned a lot from this fight and will come back stronger because in life yeah, it's not about winning or losing but about how you deal with each outcome.'

Something along those lines post fight.

Tired of this bs from Joshua he has been the champ for years and still tries to make it sound like he is new to the game and Tyson has so much more exp like bull**** you are the same damn age no one cares what year who turned pro stop acting like you are a newbie and fight already

[Toffee]

The facts are, Fury has defended his lineal title multiple times, the opposition are irrelevant.

Christ almighty. You believe that? It doesn't matter whether your opponent is Pianeta? It's still better than beating, say, Parker?

Just weird. You can make a really good case for Fury - it just isn't this one.
