Strange tbh how there just seems to be such a lack of talent in the heavyweight division these days, real shame as it used to be where the box offices fights were but not anymore

yeah indeed...used to be a real Buzz

[Chazza]

Looks like the rematch will happen then.

Wlad might need to throw his right hand in that one rather than just have it hanging around his body.

When?

[Nicey]

Not a fan of Fury but he did the business last night and tbh he can actually box. The heavyweight division has been a mess for a long, long time.

For pure entertainment value of not knowing what's going to happen Wilder vs Fury could be interesting

What I saw was very middle of the road ... Vlad literally did nothing ..other than blatantly try to headbutt and very ordinary Tyson Fury or turn his back on him.. I counted about 6 semi decent shots the entire **** fight ..

To give Tyson some credit he has come a long way, the first time I seen him fight I think I puked in my mouth ..last night I just felt nauseous

I will never watch a single professional boxing match again .. a joke is a joke ... the Amatuer game is a lot closer to the real thing these days

when?

I don't like him but fair does to Fury he fought a very good fight and there's absolutely no doubt that he won.

It wasn't, like, Rocky 4 exciting and there was no real conviction behind the Fury punches but he landed more he moved more and he was awkward for Wlad.

I think that all of the bull**** caught up to Wlad in the end, and in a rematch we might even see him let the punches go, instead of the tentative weird strategy he had las night, I still thing if he hits Fury a few times he knocks him out, but for now the gypsy King is king, God is in his corner don'tcha know.

Why watch boxing at all if you can't appreciate what Fury did last night?

I'm not going overboard when I say that ranks as one of the greatest performances by a British boxer in the ring. To fight the lineal heavyweight champion who hadn't lost for almost 11 years in his own back yard and UD him is a remarkable achievement!

He clowned Wlad. Beautiful movement and switch hitting. Wlad got very few opportunities to set up his jab-jab-right combo. Fury made him look old, slow and ponderous. Wlad was a heavy odds on favourite. I'm still buzzing from the whole thing

You and the others who're bemoaning last night's fight would be best served sticking to watching grown men dry hump each other in a cage.

Ok ... my mate is one of the best boxing coaches in the world has coached a number of world champions in both boxing and the UFC ... I'll ping him and ask him what he thought of Tyson Furys performance ... Tyson Fury could not even carry ****ing Lennox Lewis spit bucket

Ha ha that's ****ing shameless.

What relevance if your 'mate' to this conversation?

Why mention Lennox Lewis? We're discussing Tyson Fury and your inability to comprehend the magnitude of his performance / achievement last night.

[Nicey]

Whats ****ing shameless he has coached and boxed at the highest levels .. I think Tyson Fury is a clown.. Vlad has one eye firmly on his political career .. as Ukrainian told me as much 3 weeks before the fight ... I asked him, if he comes back and says no you buddy is right then fair ****s to you I stand corrected .. but that was a ****ing god awful fight ... Vlad did nothing .. not a ****ing thing for 7 rounds .. Tyson Fury was fighting with his weak side the first 6 rounds and Vlad could not take advantage of that .. How many times did Tyson catch up with anything other than a single punch ... to be fair he had reasoble movement, good footwork and worked behind the jab well but ... you mentioned it as one of the greatest performances of a British boxer .. I think Eubanks, Lewis .McGuigan might take issue with that

* Wlad

[Nicey]

Ok Wlad then

Wladimir is so focused on his politics he's said countless times he's not even going in to it and prefers to watch from the outside and give opinions if asked.
