The Lisburn heavyweight has stepped in to face giant Tyson at short notice and both he and his trainer are confident of upsetting the applecart
All feedback appreciated. Flex

sounds like a decent match up, fury is going in with a hungry fighter, ellis was only hungry for his purse, and he spent half the fight crawling on the canvas trying to find it !!
im looking forward to this one, very much indeed.

As soon as I saw a picture of Belshaw I knew he was not up to much. Good interview again.

Well after his car crash Scott has done well to even get back in the ring.
And full marks for stepping up and facing Fury, but i do think he's in for a painful night.
But as its heavyweights anything can happen, and Scott can punch

Belshaw should come with a bit of ambition, which will be new to Fury in the pro game.
Interesting fight.
Hopefully it lead to a few more young Heavies facing each other.

Great matchup in my opinion. Think Belshaw will come in with plenty of ambition so already that should make it a better fight than the Ellis farce. Plus Fury will be fighting another young fighter of similar size and whilst Fury looks the far more fluid boxer of the two, it'll be interesting to see what happens if Belshaw lands a big shot to his chin.
Saturday should be a cracking nights boxing

You stole Steve's exclusive Belshaw story, tut tut. And to think it was him who got you the phone number too.
All the same decent write up.

surely Belshaw will be Fury's toughest pro fight? Tougher than Swaby?
Doesnt look good for him though considering his only loss came against Peret

Will be a tough fight for Fury I dont rate his power but he should have enough boxing skills to beat Belshaw i think mid stoppage maybe 5th round

DB your printed article in BN was a farce mate. You managed to get names etc all wrong. If your going to take someone elses interview/article you could at least try and proof read the damn thing and make sure it is correct. According to BN you have a Bantamweight boxer training a HW boxer ?
You just should have let someone who knew the team carry out the interview and write the piece. Then publish their article instead of your own.
Personal opinion, "feckin farce."

Whilst Belshaw has numerous technical flaws, he's at least a match for Fury size-wise, and he can punch a bit. I'm looking forward to this. Even though I expect Fury to win, there's a bit of intrigue about it. Unlike any fight on FNF.

This is a good match up. Also a bit unexpected at this point in both of there careers. But these fights are good for the sport.
I'm backing Belshaw by KO first Three rounds.

Tyson will finish Belshaw quite early, possib;y the second round. Fury has bigger power and a better range of shots, where as Belshaw is quite limited and rely's heavily on the left hand jab, followed by a right hook. Fury will open him out with his precise body shots and then take him out in the second round. I don't think this fight will be close at all.

I can see this going one of two ways:
1. Tyson, runs out of steam, and gets stopped.
2. Belshaw simply is never in the fight, leading to the ref waving it off after round 2 or 3 (a bit like Boyle last night.)

Whicker you were right - Fury's bodypunching was impressive. Fair play to Belshaw for taking it at short notice though.
