I've watched this lad in fights and interviews, the fella is a star, he's had his dark days with depression and substance abuse, but, I just think hes a joy to watch and listen to, there are many that dont like or rate him and that's fair enough, I believe hes a real spark for the heavyweight division and boxing in general. I'd like to hear other people views.
I thought he was a complete bellend but he has won me over. I hope he and AJ can mop up the titles and then unify them. May the best man win.
Technically proficient but incredibly mobile boxer. Massive head and takes a punch really well. Be surprised if he beats Wilder, again. Not impossible, though. Somewhat arrogant. Holds a series of abhorrent views derived from his religion; credits Jesus with curing his depression, which is obviously totally Patrick BullSchmidt.
massively gone up in my estimation since his return, however let's not forget his very recent past entirely. his god-bothering is also a load of old b0llocks. i wouldn't be at all surprised if his bell-endery made a comeback at some point but yeah, hats off on his renaissence.
Im not a fan him due to his background and fact hes a prat but as a boxer hes 2nd to none. One of the finest this country has ever produced. I hope he gets the chance to beat wilder and AJ and unify the division because he deserves it....
He’s the best heavyweight in the world. Concerning that he’s failed a drug test previously for nandrolone. Don’t really like that he’s taking two back to back fights against nobodies but can’t blame him if it’s true that he’s getting paid a fortune for them
He is generally very boring to watch. However, he is very difficult to hit - perhaps the most difficult I've seen. That makes him well capable of beating anybody, but as far as entertainment goes - well there is very little.
So what did people make of Fury's performance last night? Got the job done in the end and fought for over nine rounds with heavy cuts to maintain his unbeaten record but I thought he looked flat, weak and possibly overtrained. It's all well and good Fury's camp heaping huge praise in Wallin but let's be honest Wilder would have put him away with ease.
I think Fury is suffering in performance the same way Joshua did in his last fight, in that they are struggling to get motivated to face anyone other than each other and Wilder.
I think it’s impossible to tell. He was taking a look at him in the first round & won the second & then the cut happened. When you get a cut that bad all game plans go out the window, he couldn’t see properly from that eye, that’s why he ended up getting close to him & pounding the body. I think he made the best of a really bad situation. There’s no doubt if he got cut like that against Wilder he’d be taken out but I’d say the same the other way. Although it’s caused by a punch it was pretty lucky for Wallin that it opened up like that. Wallin’s also a lot better boxer than he’s been given credit for because he’s an unknown Swede. He might not have a great pro record but he was a quality amateur & shared the ring with many of today’s top heavies. He’s a lot better than Tom Schwarz & is probably in the top 20-30 in the world & you don’t want to be in the ring with anyone of that standard with a cut like that.
If he carried a seriously big punch he would be streets ahead of the rest, as far as his personal life is concerned if we took every boxer with a shady history out of the game there would be nobody left to fight, Fury will beat Wilder as he did last time and Wilder kno's it.....hence the delaying tactics of taking other fights,
exactly this. just hope they dont leave it too long to unify the belts; i want to see them all fighting each other in their prime and not when they're past it.
He looked great going into the ring and then it went south from there, nasty cuts though and he did enough and showed great courage as did his opponent
Fury is as guilty as Wilder of delaying the fight. All part of the strategy to make Wilder Fury II actually sell, because the first fight didn’t.
