Fury vs Big bad john 2 predictions?
Re: Fury vs Big bad john 2 predictions?
McD to win... how can Fury have improved enough having only fought two eejits? He isnt going to improve in the gym as much as in the ring... unfortunate that McD has not sorted himself out a fight or two since either tho... they may both be a little flat at first.

Re: Fury vs Big bad john 2 predictions?
I really want McDermott to win this and with all the trouble with Fury (switching trainers and aparrently putting on weight) and McDermott has lost a lot of wait, I've heard. Should be an enjoyable scrap but I see Fury just knicking it.

Oh, it would? I won't bother then.

Re: Fury vs Big bad john 2 predictions?
best result for boxing...... scrappy Draw
Re: Fury vs Big bad john 2 predictions?
I think that Fury 'lost' the first fight because he isn't as good as he thinks / says he is (does he really think he's that good?). Nothing will have changed on that front by tonight so for me it's McDermott.
Re: Fury vs Big bad john 2 predictions?
To be fair he does look as though he's gotten himself into better shape. If he can win tonight, and look good doing it, he'll have proven a big point. Despite the promotional talk it would seem he's a decent guy and I'd I'm starting to find that I'm hoping he'll prove me wrong in backing against him.
Re: Fury vs Big bad john 2 predictions?
it would be far better for british boxing for Fury to win, he's the guy we love to hate - the amount of self publicity he has generated amongst boxing fans is impressive.
my prediction ko by Fury by round 6.

Fury by body shot inside 3 rounds.
Re: Fury vs Big bad john 2 predictions?
I initially thought that Fury would get the job done this time. The fight IMO was closer than some experts scored it. McDermott won on my card, but I had it close - and I didn't think McDermmott could improve.
However, I'm starting to sway based on the change of trainers of Fury - I aint saying Fury's current trainer is no good, just think thats a sign that he isn't confident and things haven't been going well - his performances post McDermmott have been shite also.
Yes, I'm prickling my arse on this fence, but if pressed now I will go for McDermmott points.

Really? Fury was the one who came on in the last two rounds of encounter number one.iron rhino wrote:Over 12 rnds favours mc dermott.
Re: Fury vs Big bad john 2 predictions?
Tyson will win this inside 6 rounds imo, maybe even a 1st or 2nd round KO if he really starts putting his combo's together early.
This is the fight that will make people start talking about Fury doing something beyond domestic level...definately european and maybe even become a Top 10 Heavyweight a few years down the road.

Re: Fury vs Big bad john 2 predictions?
I would love Fury to win impressively and by KO, but after the first fight and the build up Fury has had to this fight I see it going the same way and if it does then mcD has a great chance. So I would shade McD on points as a prediction.
