Tyson Fury vs. John McDermott

[My T Sharp]

[oliverfennell]

What's the question?

[Wales]

who wins, I presume.

[DavidPayne]

Strikes me Tyson has a lot of physical development to go through, he reminds me of Enzo Macc in this shot. Loose.

[Adamj1987]

i heard about this a week or 2 ago when the boards mandated fights came out

i think tyson will beat big boobs mcdermott hands down

[iwz678]

poll says a lot, Fury would kill him, McDermott is just a lump with no talent, energy or stamina, pure crap

[alexpaterson]

I think McDermott is a decent British level HW and will be to expierenced for Fury at the moment Fury hasnt been in with someone who has he ability of McDermott I think a close but clear UD for John McDermott

[overhand_right]

I think a decision for McDermott. Will be interesting to see if he lands that uppercut whether Fury can even take a punch.

[MPG]

Tyson Fury for me,I've watch nearly all of John's fight as we used to go to the same club (st prancras) but Fury's speed will be too much for big john.

Saying that,WE dont know what fury's chin is like as it hasnt been tested yet but doesn't John lack power in his punch's ?

As im writing this,i'm thinking Fury might not KO McDermott,so his stamia will be tested over the 10/12 rounds ?

Only gona go 2 ways Fury ko before the 6th or points win for McDermott....I'm sitting on the fence for this 1.

[TheCobra]

Fury will beat him with a fair amount in hand imo. McDermott is just a shining example of how bad the british heavyweight scene is, he is average at best, Fury has looked more impressive beating up the journeymen than any fight I have ever seen McDermott in, and I've seen him for a fair few years.

I hear Mick is lining up a five fight card at the O2 Arena in September:


Carl Froch vs. Mikkel Kessler
WBC/WBA Super Middleweight Titles

John Murray vs. Jon Thaxton
British/Commonwealth Lightweight Titles

Darren Barker vs. Matthew Macklin
British/Commonwealth Titles

Tyson Fury vs. John McDermott
English Heavyweight Title

Steve Barnes vs. TBC
6 Rounder


Bute has agreed to rematch Andrade so Froch is looking elsewhere, it’s going to be ITV’s last card before they withdraw at the end of year.

Absolute, total, complete lies.

[oliverfennell]

People are going overboard with Fury. Yes, he's a very promising talent, but he's still a novice. McDermott doesn't look good and is not especially exciting, but he's a solid, experienced pro who ran Danny Williams close twice and has beaten some decent names. Also, crucially, he has been 10 and 12 rounds several times, while Fury hasn't been past 4, and even then some people have questioned his stamina. Skelton aside, McDermott hasn't shown an especially poor chin, and people also wonder about Fury's power (he overwhelms opponents rather than bangs them out). This is by no means a formality, and in fact over 10 rounds at this point I'd quite comfortably pick McDermott.

[oliverfennell]

I know all these fights have been talked about but talking about them and actually making them ALL - especially all on the same card! - are entirely different things. No way they all take place on the same night.

[Asterix]

I agree with Oliver. If they all came to fruition I'd be amazed. Some really good fights there.

[WildWaylon]

McDermott is domestic level and no more. If Fury wants to ultimately get to Euro and World level he has to beat McDermott, and beat him well. He has yet to be tested for stamina and chin, two things which could determine how far he will go. McDermott may be a cumbersome tub of lard but he can go the distance and he can bang. This is a good test for Fury and we should find out if he is just a hype job or a fighter with a bright future. I think its a fight Fury must win, or all the talk will have to come to an end. I voted for Fury in what I see as a sh1t or bust situation for him.

First of all "Superheavyweight" has a habit of posting strange threads, last year he did a fantasy card headlined by Harrison v Klitschko for the undisputed title

6 Rounder

[Captain Hook]

Fury in 3/4 rounds...

As for SuperHeavyweight's imaginary card, we'd all love to see it but I seriously doubt it....

[mickeyb]

Fury in less than 6. McDermott has been flattered by getting in with an old, slow, tired, shot Williams.

And loosing twice...

[Big Ste]

McDermott may not beat Fury but Fury will be sparked out as soon as he meets a half decent fighter who can counter punch. Mark my words. That amateur habit of leaning his head back from punches with his huge chin far from his chest will get exposed shortly. David Price is twice the boxer.

[Bomber 1]

I can't bear this clowns mouth and I'll always back Pricey against him!! BUT I am honest and he is improving cos he's just so busy and active so he can't help but improve!! I think he'll have a few scares against McDermott but will come through in the end!! Maybe a 6 to 7 round stoppage..Danny Williams motivated will be a super test I think!!

Pricey on his day is just too much for any heavyweight in this country!! Power,speed,athletisisim,balance and top stamina!!

Like I said though, Fury is improving even though his mouth sends me nuts!! All I ever hear him say is NO ONE will fight me and everyone is scared of me!!
