Re: Fury vs Plodder RBR
He is so one-paced. Looks OK for a couple of rounds but doesn't have a second gear. Steward would tell him to do switch things up, he'd go out and throw some punches for ten seconds then straight back to what he was doing before.
In poor shape too.

Re: Fury vs Plodder RBR
Agreed Lefty you would think training with Manny and Wlad would of gotten him in half decent shape but he looked so fleshy. And agreed he is one paced but I did see an improvement in his jab (early)

Re: Fury vs Plodder RBR
Great Hopkins fight I had him winning 115-113 I feel for Hopkins! Great fight and an absoloutly superb showing by Bernard
Re: Fury vs Plodder RBR
I had him 1 up, 114-113. Scored the tenth level, so if that goes to Pascal I've got it a draw. Thought the biased Showtime interview afterwards, the interviewer (Jim Gray) more or less claiming you leave America you get robbed, was a disgrace.alexpaterson wrote:Great Hopkins fight I had him winning 115-113 I feel for Hopkins!

It was like he was afraid of Hopkins. I thought it was odd.gobbles wrote:I had him 1 up, 114-113. Scored the tenth level, so if that goes to Pascal I've got it a draw.

Re: Fury vs Plodder RBR
showtime were biased but the un-official judges were interesting , they had hopkins winning by split decision
there should be a rematch in the states and i think hopkins will win
great way to finish his career

Re: Fury vs Plodder RBR
I think he was afraid, afraid of being countered all the time. Hopkins kept punishing him.
Re: Fury vs Plodder RBR
He won bronze at the World Junior Championships, also silver at the European Junior Championships and gold at the EU Junior Championships.Oh, the lies they tell. Introduced as the current "heavyweight champion of the United Kingdom", commentators say (wonder who told them) that he was a bronze medallist at the 2006 World Championships.

Fury weighed in heavier than in his pro debut fight.
Re: Fury vs Plodder RBR
Fury looked in terrible condition. There is no excuse for a professional boxer not being in good physical shape.

Re: Fury vs Plodder RBR
Has he ever looked in shape for a fight? He's been talking about taking on the domestic rivals this year (including beating Haye) but i can't see him doing much against the likes of Rogan, Sexton & Chisoraalexpaterson wrote:Flabby!

Re: Fury vs Plodder RBR
It wasn't so long ago the idiots on this forum were bumming up Tyson Fury as the next Muhammad Ali.
Re: Fury vs Plodder RBR
Fury needs to face his domestic rivals in 2011, and if he's still unbeaten after 2011 it will be a miracle.

He really needs to sort himself out or he'll never go beyond domestic level. Piss poor...
