no value in Fury either 1/7 with Powers

Yes there is. Walk into bookies tonight and put £140 on and he'll give you your money back and £20 for your trouble as well.

Fury only loses if he get a cut, DQ'd or twists his ankle when he throws a punch.

Im on the fence with this one,I just hope KJ throws some leather.

Looking at the odds it'd be a MAJOR upset.

Have YOU seen the Neven Pajkic fight?

I would never back anyone at odds of 1/7, no way, I used to work in a bookmakers and have seen people do this sort of thing and lose out big time.

Eubank Jr looks like he absolutely lives and breathes boxing.

Eubank Jr looks like he needs to improve a lot. He still looks to be feather fisted, still makes far too many stupid mistakes and was probably lucky Pryce wasn't a natural middleweight.

Whatever his faults, his commitment and boxing style make for pretty good tv.

Yeah. I get the impression he revels in having a scrap. His little grins and sneers aren't affected, he really is happy in there. It doesn't look like he's ever going to be nuclear so he needs to sustain longer flurries of action in order to force stoppages.

The best heavyweight fight since Gatti Ward says Johnson.

My final prediction.....

Johnson won't win a round.

Johnson is dillusional mate. He also thinks he's gonna win.

Johnson looks a little fitter and more focused than he did for Prizefighter.

Fury looking fit and snappy. Probably shouldn't have put quite so much into the first 4 rounds though. Johnson is a world class punchbag and doesn't look like shifting far tonight.

Fair play mate, you called it correct, Johnson was absolutely ,utterly woeful and as unambitious as I have seen any fighter for quite a while in a supposed WBC title eliminator. Turgid stuff.

Seems to me he is happy to be the 'gatekeeper' type, "I've never been knocked down, went 12 rounds with Vitali, lets have the fat wad of cash to keep me going"

In fairness to Johnson, he's only lost three fights and one of them was a three rounder. Fury boxed brilliantly last night.

It was a very measured and mature performance from Tyson Fury who seems to have improved considerably in his last 3/4 fights since he has switched to being trained by Peter Fury rather than his other uncle Hughie. He looks in a far better shape than he did under Hughie plus he is learning to use what he has got in terms of his height, reach and was working off that jab very well and going to the body quite well and switching to Southpaw to mix things up, it was not a thrill a minute that some of the fans who were at the Odyssesy Arena wanted to see, but was a mature and focussed performance from Fury.

Just talking about the fight with a friend

Does anyone know what Johnson's punch total and punch success ratio was?

Must have been low

Finally seen the Fury-Johnson fight and Tyson boxed very well. His fitness was superb and concentration has improved massively. He pissed all over Johnson for 12 rounds
I'd still like to see him capture the European title first and have a few more fights before pushing full steam ahead to a world title fight.

This guy has been really quiet recently, hasn't he?
