True, true- it will be a good fight.

But the the show lacks depth. Tyson Fury, presumably, being the main support?

Tyson vs McDermott rematch is already is scheduled for may.

I imagine Tyson will be out 2 or 3 times before then.

Well, I'm cynical- but consider that this is the only live boxing match probably to be shown on British TV all this week.

Is that really "up to scratch?"

At the end of the day, I just give my opinion.

When I like something, I'll say it.

Is this really a "happy time" to be a boxing fan. :OhYes:

Yes, what a terrible job FW did with Khan, getting him to a world title by the age of 22 and in barely more than 20 fights, not to mention the Commonwealth belt after 12 bouts. Total procrastination.

Tyson ready for blast-out with Blasko

LONDON (March 4th, 2010) 6'5 German heavyweight Hans-Joerg Blasko has been named as the opponent for the return of Tyson Fury this coming Friday night. Fury, who is chief support to the main card of Sykes vs. Morris for the British Super Featherweight title this Friday in Huddersfield.

"Just like my team Manchester United, I need to make a point this weekend. I've been away and it's time to return back to my slot as the number one domestic heavyweight, in the premier league of boxing." said Fury.

"Forget that other London rival, Derek Chisora, he's just been keeping my seat warm. While he's been snogging men, I’ve been sparring them. Once I'm done with Blasko on Friday night, I'll maybe have another fight before resolving the McDermott situation once and for all."

The rematch with McDermott is set to take place on May 22nd in Manchester, affording Fury a fighting opportunity or two in the meantime. Meanwhile Derek Chisora, a rival of Fury's, hit the headlines for kissing his opponent Carl Baker, at the weigh in for their British title eliminator last month. The winner of the final eliminator between Fury and McDermott will contest the British title in their next fight.

“In my opinion it’s no surprise Danny Williams swerved Chisora. After all he has a wife and kids and you know, that's not his thing." laughed Fury "I've been saying for a while I would knock out Chisora, but maybe I should offer to put him to bed, that may be the right approach for a man of his inclination." Said Fury.

"But joking aside, if you’re reading this Derek, I've got a big smack on the lips waiting for you at the end of the year if you’re up to the job.”

Sykes vs. Morris will be shown live on Sky Sports 1 and Sky Sports 1 HD this Friday at 10pm, March 5th from the Huddersfield Leisure centre.

Tickets are available to purchase from Matchroom Sports on 01277 359900

Fury wanted to but I gather it came in with barely a week's notice.

This is a fight that can be built up to capture the imagination.

That is what I inferred, but if it wasn't what you meant, then fair enough. One just has to assume a Boxrec post comparing Fury to Khan is hardly likely to be a positive one!
