Fury's more brawns than brain. He entertaining, but no way is he going to the top. Not unless a trainer manages to work miracles on him. Haye would smash him to bits.

That kid needs to slow down. Even if he beats Chisora, he is a long way away from competing with Haye and Wlad. He needs to be fighting gatekeepers for the next few years before setting his sights that high. Even Chisora is a tremendous step-up, but his size and Chisora's lack of athleticism should make it a winnable fight, and he should just lean on that win to sell tickets for a while before taking another big step up.

Or alternatively, teach all of his opponents to punch themselves in the face like he did. With their power, he could score a no punch KO.

As someone said earlier, I think Chisora stops him late.

However, I'd love to see Fury beat Chisora and get a shot at Haye. Simply because Haye would KO him in the first two rounds without any trouble at all and it might shut him up a bit. I know we've all laughed at toegate since Haye's 'challenge' against Wlad, but he is MILES ahead of the rest of the British heavyweights. The only one who even has a chance of reaching Haye's level is David Price, and that won't be until a few years down the line.

It's the one thing I hate about boxing - nobody gives anyone any respect for their achievements - it would be refreshing to hear someone come out and say "yeah he's a great fighter and if I'm not on my game I'll get beat, but I believe I have the tools to beat him if it goes according to plan". It very rarely happens though, and I don't see that changing any time soon.

Well annoys me. :witzend:

Much easier said than done. Beat Chisora then we'll talk at the moment he's achieved very little.

Not bad so far for a kid out of shape don't you think?

Yeah he looks good in flashes. However, the lack of discipline is a worry. He should be coming in in best shape for every fight if he wants to make it.

He has a good chin which is a major asset, fast hands, a great reach and is a naturally big powerful man, with the right tutelage, and a change in attitude, he can achieve somethinig. He has plenty of time to learn too.....it's up to him really.

Tyson Fury says once he knocks out British and Commonwealth heavyweight champion Dereck Chisora on July 23rd at Wembley Arena he wants to do the same to David Haye before a showdown with world champion Wladimir Klitschko.

Fury was left bewildered by how David Haye flopped on the big stage against Klitschko in their heavyweight title fight in Hamburg.

"I'm the future of heavyweight boxing in Britain and the world," says Fury. "When you looked at how Haye boxed against Klitschko, it's not how a true heavyweight with a true heart should fight but the British fans shouldn't worry because I'm the coming force and I'll show that when I knock out Chisora.

"Then I want to knock out David Haye to prove to Wladimir that I'm the real deal. If I had boxed the way Haye did I don't think I could look at myself in the mirror ever again. But the fans can get to see a real heavyweight tear-up when I get it on with Chisora.

"We're both going to come and have a fight, we're not there to dance. Proper fighting men don't dance, the fans deserve a proper fight and they'll get it. There's going to be fireworks.

"You have to respect what Wladimir Klitschko did but fighting me he would be fighting a true heavyweight and not a blown up cruiserweight. Wladimir has proved that he is the real deal but now it's my time to show the world that I'm the next big thing.

“I want to bring pride and honour back to the British heavyweight scene. It got lost in all of Haye's trash talking. But I'm the future and everyone will see that live on terrestrial tv on Channel 5.

"After reading reports in the press this morning regarding Vladimir Klitschko Rodionovich, I would like to send my sincere condolences to the Klitschko brothers on the passing of their father."

Not so sure about all that, but good to see what he wants.

And I was not aware of the father passing.
greatness and fury can never be considered in the same line.

Give him a chance but after that McDermott debacle last year I think Del Boy will walk through him after 4-5 rounds.

Fury may just eat his words about Haye if he doesnt do well against Chisora. Frankly I dont like Fury or Chisora and I dont see either of them getting to the top. Fury has as much gob as David Haye and no he isnt the future of British HW boxing. McD is English Champion standard but he beat Fury in their first fight, he sadly didnt get the decision. Fury is young and he has plenty of time to improve, so he doesnt need to rush things.
