Fury didn't sign up to face a 261 lbs version of Chisora, he signed up to face Chisora. He was willing to fight the best version of him, it wasn't his fault Chisora came in overweight.

Fury wasn't in the best shape for that fight himself and he won the fight comfortably.

why ?
He said he was initally going to have a break with his wife and kids and then get back int the gym and probably be working on some more improvements with his Uncle Peter who is his new trainer and he does look better being trained under Peter than he did with his other Uncle Hughie. With Peter now training he seems to be better conditioned and picking his shots better than he did under Hughie or perhaps he plans to go off and get some topline sparring against someone. But I do agree I would like to see him go in with at least 2 out of

Helenius (should be available after injury)
Dimitrenko still availlable after getting flattended by Pulev
Perez (available)
Pulev available after flattening Dimitrenko and has got the European belt and is top 10 ranked.
or Chagaev (if Fury wants to fight a Klitchsko let's see how he stacks up against a guy who has been with one)

Pretty naive mate. Managers and promoters always sniff around and see what condition a guy is in before they make a fight. I am sure they knew exactly how fat Chisora was and made sure to make the fight at the right time.

I don't know how getting rocked two or three times qualifies as 'winning comfortably'. Christ knows why you are trying to defend this goon.

A fit Del Boy isn't all that. Fury beat Chisora, he would beat any version of him too.

Del boy was certainly pretty passive anytime around Tyson. Seemed almost scared of him.

Tyson needs to fight better opposition than he has of late to keep me interested though. Rogan and Maddalone were poor fights.

Unfortunately his handlers don't seem to want anything to do with Price.

Fury won clearly on points and he wasn't ever hurt badly, he won pretty comfortably in my opinion.

Fury was Chisora's mandatory challenger. I suppose Fury should have refused to fight Chisora if he heard that he was not in the best fighting shape.

Do you think FW was naive enough to walk out to the ring with Chisora on a rival promoters show if it was common knowledge all along that Del had not trained? Take a look at BOTH men that night. Neither were body beautiful. Also, when did he get rocked? Del opened up with bursts a few times to which Fury got his hands up, weathered the storm and then outboxed Del for the rest of the round. I think its true he was intimidated by Tyson. If he would have tried his usual stunts (and thats what they are) at the weigh in, he would have been lynched and was well aware of this.

fury wants yet another small fighter, one with pedigree this time - adamek had his first 30 or so fights at 175 and holds championships at two weights, and has beaten top 10 ranked fighters in 3 weights.

anyway, adamek may commit to a 4 man tourney with the IBF, and has been linked with a fight vs the huge alexander ustinev...
