Hard to take seriously his comment about not being a bad man when he was put in prison for holding another man in a headlock and gouging one of his eyes out with his bare fingers.


Might be normal in his world to act like that, but for the majority of folk that is nothing more than barbaric behaviour.


His son just comes across as a less articulate, but more openly misogynistic and bigoted version of him.

Fury and his old man are a pair of cunts.

Fury and his old man are a pair of cunts.

And then some.


Cannot knock Fury's achievement in winning the title and by doing so becoming the undisputed top man in the division, but as a person he comes across as being a nasty piece of work.


His dad's various run ins with the law in Ireland and in the UK pretty much spells out what type of man he is, and Peter Fury, very good trainer that he is, has his background as a convicted drug trafficker and a convicted money launderer to his name.

So makes me laugh when I see any of them on tv talking about how they are the victims when they have time and again shown that they are far from being so.

Don't leave Hennessy off that list, think he the biggest of them all.

Anyone see Spence Jr last night?

Thought he looked good.

[marcus50bucks]

Spence is the one many boxing experts in the US are saying will go very far in the game. Very talented. He called Brook out so let's see what Mr Hearn's response is

What have I missed re: Hennessy? Always struck me as a decent enough promoter for his fighters..even if one or two eventually had to leave him to get the career defining fights.

I just think he's a nob. Some people may not but I do.

[Doc_Piptorious]

Six Irish boxers confirmed for Rio 2016 with three more, Michael O’Reilly, Darren O’Neill and Katie Taylor, still with the chance to qualify.


Big deal for Irish amateur boxing as the most that Ireland ever had in any prior Olympics was six so to have already equaled that number with three boxers still in the mix is impressive.

can't argue with that!

I'm predicting an upset. Khan to win by UD

[RichC]

If he stays on his bike he's got a chance problem with Khan is he's never shown himself to be that "ring smart" and ends up trying to trade, exciting to watch but he'll get bombed out if he gets caught.

Intreaging fight tbh and fair play for him to get into the ring with him

I'm sure it'll be a great fight, but that was incredibly dull/
