Fury claims Price isn’t Right for Pro Game

[MPG]

Disagree with you lot crying cos Fury has criticised Price. He's got more right to say stuff like that than the likes of you. He has an opinion, no problem with that. He's confident, which is essential. And he is probably right about price.

It makes me laugh that some of you say that his comments make you hate him or want to see him lose :-) This is boxing. He's a fighter, stepping in the ring. He is also an individual who can say what he wants.

Your right,he can say anything he likes,he is try to promote himself,put bums on seats but would it have been better to say that he would beat price rather then say that price wont make it as a pro ? If he had said,i wish price the best of luck in the pro game but if he comes across my path,i would knock him out,wouldnt that have been better.

I heard Price slipped against Fury and didn't even get a count.
I'am sure a couple of the Liverpool lads here were present and could give us the details of what really happened.

Price has been over a few times, but he always get's up.
Also, he has very impressive power himself. The Russian he stopped in the Olympics is teak tough.

Of course he can say what he wants, but that will likely determine whether or not people like him. From what I've seen of him on TV, this trash talking doesn't suit him, and I doubt it even comes from him. If he acts like a prick people are going to call him a prick.

Thats your opinion, fair enough. But I don't think he is acting like a prick at all. I have no problem with him criticising other opponents, doesn't bother me. He's the fighter, so it is his right, particularly as he has fought Price before.

I have to be honest I wasn't impressed by Tyson Fury in his last fight. All his punches seemed to be "arm" punches and the dropping of the hands is a bad habit - sure you can get away with it at this level but he should use these fights to iron out these bad habits for higher level fights in the future. His jab seemed to lack snap and he mostly just probes with it. At 6ft 8 inches he is a trainer's dream but he's got a lot of improving to do himself, never-mind criticising other boxers. I'm not going to write him off yet as he's still a baby and has only had 3 fights but by his tenth fight there should be a marked improvement.

He can criticise who he wants, but people will still have opinions and regardless of whether you like what he says, other people will disagree.

Fury hasn't done anything yet, and already we've had rants about different boxers and how superior he is. That's my problem with the pikey.

But the thing is, he's clearly lying about his fight with Price, see the other thread

Fury,i think could be (correct me if i'm wrong) the 1st traveller world champion (not pikey as JbaccaNobhead said ).

At 6ft 9,he has the size,he has speed,he also has nice skills but maybe lacking the knockout punch which in good time he may develope.

I just think if he concentrates just on his own career and stop knocking other boxers like price who are just about to start.

IMO He thinks he needs the media attenion but with only 3 fights,he needs to just knuckle down,get in shape and after 10-15 fights when his in contention for a british title,Then call out the other british rivals.

I was at the fight he had with Price and he was found wanting quite badly in his basic fundamental boxing skills! He is not fit and with the hands that low it's only a matter of time till he is found wanting again. Price is a proper athlete and super dedicated to the game!! You'll see a different fighter to the one you saw in the Am game I can guarentee that!! The guy is a proper natural and a proper gentleman too!!

Fury was behaving like this as an Am calling out Price every 5 mins yet when they fought he was completely out thought and out manouvered, He hit him with a good shot BUT didn't drop Price and never gve him any count!! Counts in the Am's are given out for solid jabs sometimes so don't read anything into people being given counts!!

Chisora stopped him in 3 if i can remember correctly, so will be interesting to compare to how Fury does.

YES Please

Fury has a long way to go, before he can start to criticise other fighters......

A long long way to go !!

He can't even punch correctly at the minute, has no defence and tires after a flurry of punches

Reminds me of a something Bruce Lee said to his opponent in enter the dragon -

"Boards, don't hit back......"

and neither do Tyson Fury's opponents

[Old bones Ian]

Maybe Swaby will land a left hand, Fury does drop his hands after a combination.
