Fury Klitschko staredown in Cologne WOW
This is incredible - Fury turns the staredown into a conversation and then a heartfelt Klitschko tribute - Fury is so open and spontaneous while K is wooden and rehearsed and stiff - but they clearly respect each other and will be friends later - Once again Fury showing he is as entertaining as ALI ever was - The Tyson Fury Show strikes again and it never disappoints - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKPgkE8pY10
Re: Fury Klitschko staredown in Cologne WOW
Excellent video
The soundtrack in the first couple of minutes of the video reminded me of the scene in "Enter The Dragon" where Williams was getting walloped by Mr Han and all those drugged up hookers* were just giggling in the background.
* - I would like to apologise to anyone offended by me calling the ladies in that film 'hookers'. They were actually girls kidnapped from 'the Mainland' and forced into drug use & prostitution by Mr Han![[icon_e_sad.gif] :verysad:](./images/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif)

Fury being Fury I guess; maybe he has had a tit full of the circus, and then again, maybe he just playing with Wlad and the media.
Has he banked a million yet?

Re: Fury Klitschko staredown in Cologne WOW
Fury really seems to be bipolar, massively depressed 30 minutes before, then randomly chatting cheerfully to Wlad a short while later.
His mood's up and down like a yo-yo, and I half believe his talk about cocaine heroin and booze.. I really hope he doesn't end up like Gazza when he retires with all that cash ..
Wlad clearly thinks he's dealing with a mad man, and he's half right, but I think Tyson may have permanently got into his bemused head, and is probably going to do him on points in a similar fight again.

Re: Fury Klitschko staredown in Cologne WOW
I've thought the same thing myself a few times. What did he say about drugs n booze? I've heard him referencing drink quite a lot but never drugs?MightyWarrior wrote:Fury really seems to be bipolar, massively depressed 30 minutes before, then randomly chatting cheerfully to Wlad a short while later.

Maybe be he's not but his moods seem to go up and down like a whores drawers so it would explain a lot.Switch hitter wrote:Bi polar ??
Re: Fury Klitschko staredown in Cologne WOW
I think Fury just goes with whatever mood he's in.
He might have had a belly-full of being champ that day. But tomorrow he might relish it again and state he's going to spank Klitchko again, like he did a couple of days ago - and that he's changed his mind.
I'm fearful that if becoming champ has still not given him focus in life, then perhaps nothing will.

I really enjoyed that video. I do like Fury, he's such an engaging but also enigmatic guy. Wladimir is truly baffled by this man. One minute he's trash talking, the next he's giving a heartfelt tribute to his opponent, and saying he hopes he can beat him this time

Expect that means he took it for a couple of weeks, but he's obviously pretty out there

Re: Fury Klitschko staredown in Cologne WOW
Nah, Fury will be fine in retirement, he's got his head screwed on & probably just enjoys doing things like normal people do. Totally different situation to Gazza, who unfortunately never had any sense.MightyWarrior wrote:Here you go, "recovering heroin addict" no less..Stuarty30 wrote:I've thought the same thing myself a few times.

Fury is playing a blinder with the psychology Imo. He is putting all the pressure on wlad again with his comments. I think fury wins again!

Re: Fury Klitschko staredown in Cologne WOW
I'm not a huge believer in this 'winning the psychological game' stuff. All the talk means nothing, in the ring is where it matters. I can't think of many examples of fighters who were taken out of their game plan purely by pre-fight antics.ThereByTheGrace wrote:Fury is playing a blinder with the psychology Imo.

I think it might be a similar fight regardless of press conferences. Wlad isn't going to turn into a volume-punching beast after so many years of tedium being drilled into him. I do expect Fury to up his workrate though and win even clearer, maybe by stoppage.
Re: Fury Klitschko staredown in Cologne WOW
More perfectly choreographed, deeply unsettling and clever kidology from Mr. Fury.
What better way of taking the wind out of Wlad's sails by presenting oneself as a slightly hapless, humble and rather surprised champion?
"Oh dear, I am finding this champion lark very tough."
Wlad expecting and primed for some Fury braggadocio but actually gets a charming, respectful Tyson shrugging his shoulders and saying he is struggling with being the champ and honoured just to be there.
Braced for an onslaught; Wlad ends-up playing Tyson's game and looks perplexed doing so.
Clever, clever stuff.

Re: Fury Klitschko staredown in Cologne WOW
Exactly! Fury is running the whole show - he is the straw the stirs the drink - It's the Fury Show and Wlad is a sideshow secondary character - everything runs off what Fury does or says - Wlad is in awe of this Fury as Fury is everything he's not - totally open with his feelings - spontaneous - funny - while Wlad is stiff boring repetitive scripted rehearsed and politically correct - Wlad wishes he could be like Fury - then Fury suddenly starts saluting Wlad to his face and Wlad had no idea what to do he just stood there like a tree - then he fist taps Fury to show respect - Fury is a GENIUS - the best thing to happen in boxing since ALI - SERIOUSLY he's that fascinating he's that intriguing - he's got Wlad Klitschko wrapped around his finger -Bodyshot3 wrote:More perfectly choreographed, deeply unsettling and clever kidology from Mr. Fury.

Wlad at the end was a bit like he’d prepared all his lines for an argument .... now what am I meant to say?
Fury chucked him a right curved ball...
I like Fury and I’ll miss him when he’s done.
I do wish they’d agree on attire before these pressers tho. One guy’s wearing a windcheater whilst the other is modelling for Hugo Boss at the same time!
Let’s hope for a good fight and may the best man win.
Re: Fury Klitschko staredown in Cologne WOW
What I meant to say is that I saw in a photo Fury sat there with Mick Hennessey. I’d lost track of his promotional side as all you ever see on cam is Fury himself. So that relationship has endured, which seems a rarity thesedays.

I don't think big Mick likes the camera does he? Apparently he gets mad nervous.

Re: Fury Klitschko staredown in Cologne WOW
I just remember the channel 5 days and Froch was with them one one or two others with some profile. Maybe some retired but Froch left him ... I wondered if Fury still worked with him and it seems so.Stuarty30 wrote:I don't think big Mick likes the camera does he? Apparently he gets mad nervous.

Wonder what Mick thinks when Fury says hopefully Wlad can win and restore the natural order as I’m sick of it
