He had a broken toe. He broke it 4 days before the fight.

It wasn't a lie. You ever had a broken toe?

Why would Tyson fight Haye when Haye pussied out of a fight twice and wasted a year of Tysons career, not to mention earning no money?

Sorry Hoops.

I'm on my way. Apologies for offending you or any member of your family.

Getting right narky in your old age mustard.

Chill, we're not your enemies.

My grandmother on my fathers side was the first woman in ireland to get the bachelour of arts, my grandfather was good friends with both collins and Devolera.

I am a pisshead and spurs fan.

We all have our history but tonight fury is world heavy weight champion and deservedly so.

Sorry if it came across that way. Although Hoops was a bit 1 fight in 4 years annoying.

I am glad Fury won. I was going for him but only as a lesser of two evils. He needs to mature. And mature fast. Some of the stuff he has come out with is downright offensive.

He is a weird bloke. I don't foresee him on the Jonathan Ross show or GMTV like his predecessors might have been. And I dont see him as Eubank where his weirdness was surpassed by being an amazing pugilist. (pre Watson) or maybe after if you really understand boxing.

As I say. I'm glad Fury won.

Great strategy and it just shows how a boxer can age in front of your very eyes. There is no purer sport than boxing.

Do you not understand how professional boxing works?

Hes fighting wilder next. Id be suprised if he fought Haye, unless the purse was heavily weighted towards Tyson. The shoe is on the other foot now.

even 30/70 would suit Haye if it was at Wembley.

That would be the biggest grossing fight in UK history.

haye's a over the hill bum. I wouldnt watch any of his fights except to see him get ktfo


Haye would smash the homophobic plastic traveller. Trust me.

I was watching the HBO stream and it did make laugh.

The commentators said. 'Fury comes from a different tribe in England. They call themselves the travellers or gypsys. It means they literally move around the country from week to week. Never staying in one place for more than 2 nights.

Tyson was brought up like this. A pikey'

lol at the merican writing his entrance

Except....He wasnt. He lived in council house like all his extended family

He came he saw he conqueres, like Fury or not...as a boxing fan or a fan of any sport you are always going to have likes and dislikes, but when a Fury said he was going to go there and win he went there and Won, he didnt even seem that phased that he just took the crown of the Champs head, he truely believed that was the only outcome and for that you cannot knock him, great for the division and great for british boxing.

An amazing performance.

He took his opportunity against an aged, limited fighter.

No question it was genius.

I doubt there will be a rematch

To be honest i dont think there will be a rematch but atleast the titles have been taken in a fight and not Lewis esque where he was clearly the best in the division and retired from his own accord leaving belts to be won by two guys who didnt take them from the champ, atleast now Joshua, Wilder, Fury and the young guys get a chance to put on some cracking fights, dont get me wrong im a Mayweather fan aswell as Pacquiao but now they are gone it is better for boxing in a sense where you might not get the highly anticipated fights twice a year but you do get a constant stream of challengers and champions fighting each other instead of total dominace by a select few elite fighters...all that shit and im steaming drunk...

Is there anyway the belts can be split up? I hate seeing 3 belts pass over for 1 win.

Well done to Fury even if he is a bigoted twat. He backed up the talk Haye didn't. Haye should have to earn a shot at the title. I think losing Steward who was the best trainer in the world hasn't helped him, he's trained by Jonathan Banks, who himself was also trained Steward and had his last fight which he lost against Tarver last year. I like Wlad, I wasn't keen on him or his brother or a while but they earned my respect with the way they conduct themselves and beating mostly everyone that has been put in front of them. Wlad has exercised his rematch clause if Fury wins that he should fight Wilder and unify the titles.

lol Haye has no chance. Tyson pushed him into a 3 year sabbatical. Hes only willing now because he pissed away his money.

I just watched the highlights, fuck me that was as boring as hell, punch, punch, grab, punch, punch, grab. If that was the highlights I don't know how people managed to stay awake for the whole match.

That's all a heavyweight fight is usually isn't it? Slow ponderous etc. That's why Joshua looks so exciting as he is so much quicker
