Maybe so, but he still got the job done. I hope Fury makes the most of the talent he has, if he does he will go very very far.

He seems to be motivated based on the opponent he is facing. It must've been a kick in the nuts to be shafted by the toe twice. 2 Paydays gone.

Haye probably would of knocked him out even quicker.[/quote]

Haye didn't fancy it
Booth said Fury would beat Price[/quote]

lol,why would haye be scared of fury???

[JimStone]

This is a good match. Decent exchanges throughout that round.

10/9 Chisora

[gilgamesh]

Johnson seems to be getting the better of it through 2 rounds. Bare in mind I'm seeing only snippets of each round as I have a sh*tty internet connection, but everytime it's working I'm seeing Johnson doing effective work.

Good fight so far. Interesting.

[Finn]

Chisora looks bigger than his last couple of fight I wonder if that was due to his reduced punch resistance.

Fury's first fight back after 10 months and he has 4 kd's and wins relatively easy.

If it was Haye the cockerneys would be creaming in their pants asking for a Wlad rematch!

It was a journeyman mate.

I agree with this. I would suggest that there's a bit of a depression set in there, and he's switched off for a bit and got fat. Almost inevitable. At 25 though, he can get back into shape quickly but he needs to learn from this, to avoid repeating it.
I managed to catch hear his interview on my visually impaired stream....wife rushed into hospital for 5 days for an op?? I hope she's okay. That, on top of his 2 cars getting burned out. What a shite week! Speedy recovery Mrs Fury!

Abell was knocked out in a round by Arreola. He was also knocked out by Pulev in about the same time as Fury just did, and Pulev isnt a puncher.

I think the difference between those fights and this, is volume and effort.

Arreola came in guns blazing. Pulev threw a higher volume of punches. The effort was obvious.

In this fight, I think the name of the game was to get some rounds in. And Fury only upped the tempo, when Abell tried to make a show out of it--- otherwise it seemed to me Fury wasn't all that interested in the fight. It was like Abell would try to go hard as he could, and Fury was like "Oh, you want to go rough? Ok!" and threw one-three punches (not even full blast) and Abell dropped like a stone. If anyone seriously thinks Fury was going out at his hardest or best effort, I question their judgement or knowledge of the sport of boxing.

10/9 Chisora

[JimStone]

3rd goes to Chisora. Johnson was not quite as active that round.

[SamWise72]

Johnson is fancying this less with each round.

[keithmoonhangover]

Anyone else think the ref was going to step in?

[Boxing Prospect]

Johnson turns head, gets smacked on the back of it, bitches lol

Will do at some point from something similar

Why be a boxer if you don't want to punch people?

Johnson looking tired to me.

Johnson turns head, gets smacked on the back of it, bitches lol

Because he's getting hit with an illegal blow. Turning his head is legal.

I was thinking that

[JimStone]

4th closer than it looked. Johnson didn't do enough though.

I bet Chambers is thinking "do these guys only have one thing to say?" They all keep saying "the old Ricky Hatton line...".

Yep. I wish he was on every week.

Not disagreeing there but surely the idea isn't to complain whilst being tagged. He's complaining about everything and looks like he's had enough.

Rnd 5 Johnson down.

10/8 Chisora

[JimStone]

5th. Chisora's 10-8. Dropped Johnson with a long right hand to the temple.

Yeah he's confident, reasonably impartial and has avoided throwing out the same old clichés most guest commentators use.
