Love him or hate him, Luke has the coolest name in the book. Tyson Fury is a classic name, but does he need a nickname?

I would have to go for "The Fast and The Furious".

I don't think he needs a nickname - he just needs to live upto his name.

My kiwi accent is gone mate, although I still have the odd word coming out. It's been replaced by a Mackem accent now. However, give me two weeks in NZ and I'm 'day mate and calling everyone a f88king drongo.

His name is one of the reasons he gets a lot of attention for a prospect. There is no need for a nickname. If his name was Tyler Ferguson, than ya, a nickname would be nice, but Tyson Fury does all the work by itself.

if he was billed as Luke Fury he'd be considered the same bracket as danny hughes by now.

''Shite'' Tyson Fury would work

I'm not his biggest fan - yet but he's certainly better than Danny Hughes.

i think because of his name he brings the armchair fan to the shows which is only good for the sport, i must admit i never took to him at first but after meeting his old fella i realised it was all tounge & cheek i'd like to see him clear up at domestic level before moving onwards and upwards.

I don't think so.

He has one of the greatest real names a boxer can have.

A nickname would ruin it IMHO.

Ha ha ha, I hear what you are saying.

Can we all agree we like the guy though ?

I find him entertaining inside and outside the ropes.

Talks a good fight and has a good go.
