I'm looking forward to Chisora-Fury, because it answers questions about both fighters. We really don't know enough about Fury yet.
Fury looked good in his past fight, he definitely has improved during the past year. But now he'll have a REAL test - if he beats Chisora, he'll prove he has potential and isn't just a hype job.

Well the raw ingredients are there for him to do it. The height, reach and handspeed, body punching and the balls. However there are people out there that probably still question his chin and stamina as he gassed out in the second fight with John McDermott, but if he gets more discplined with conditioning and stamina I reckon he could do it.

Hard to say at this stage considering his best opponent was the British level John McDermott. Let's see how Fury does against Chisora.

He has the same trouble as harrison. When bombs start landing he sticks his arms out leans backwards and prays the ref is going to jump in. He is scared of being hit. I find balls is one thing you cant grow as a fighter.
Haye was all guts and glory before he moved up to heavyweight and we can see how he's turned cautious and gun shy at that weight, put a guy who is like that anyway (Fury) against a top level pressure fighter and they will get hammered without throwing a punch - ala Harrison.
Style wise he would probably last longer against someone like vitali than he would against someone like arroela, because he isnt going to be able to cope with a fighter that jumps on him from the start of the fight. Nothing to do with weather vitali is better.

With the current state of the division it is certainly possible. But I honestly don't think he ever makes it that far. He is really bad.

David Price is our best hope IMO

Nowhere near it IMO. I think Chisora will take him out and to be honest I just font rate him that highly.

Fury will only hold a belt if he waits for the Klitschko's to retire before making a charge for one and even then it'll be a slim chance. By that time though, Audley might get to fulfill his destiny and get to hold one of the belts by possibly defeating Holyfield in a 12 round classic, with Audley just getting the nod before going on to unify the division with a PPV fight against Valuev. I can see it now...

No chance, i really don't rate him and think Chisora will expose him as the hype job he is.

Far too early to say in my book. He still has Chisora to get past yet and that is no easy thing to do. He has a lot of years to get to the top, but needs to show more fighting ability as he doesn't appear to be a mssive KO puncher.

i think chisora will beat fury, possibly stop him and think price would have the beating of them both.
Wouldnt have the confidence to say just yet how far any of the three will go in the game tho.

I'd disagree with this, I think one thing he does have is a bit of fight in him, I don't see him as scared of being hit.

Can't see him getting passed Chisora.
Fury strikes me as being lazy in his preparation. It's fine having big balls, and turning up to fight but there is a limit as to how far he will get without putting in the hardwork in the gym.
