bird 10,013 Posted March 25, 2019 Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 dont say his weight , but you could be right he might be cruiser he looks simlar size / physic Bellew , but suppose it hard to really tell, either way he dont look a big heavyweight .But Wilder can punch hard for a 15 st man , so there you go, i think Fury will be to big and tie him up and frustrate him, and easily win on points , and maybe drop him few times.And anything can happen in boxing a punch on the jaw or side of the temple , from a 14-15 st man you deff go down but Fury to win quite easy unless he showboats and get caught out again lol . when Aj fighting it gone quite , is it still miller or , is wilder going to have crack at him this dec .?? that if Aj still beats miller .?

Im sure I read somewhere that hes not a lot shorter than Fury(maybe 6.5")so im guessing even if hes relatively slender hes still a fair lump. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Deker 3,478 Posted March 26, 2019 Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 He is certainly a character and looks like he has a team around him with some nous. He is in the media regularly and making money, isn't that the idea?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It is early for Dubois no doubt about that but Ive a feeling he could pull it off.I think a loss for Dubois would mean nothing at this stage of his career and he does have time on his side. Hopefully like you say,an old school dust up for the British title to look forward too. Dubious inside 3 rounds for me, if it happens, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes its the idea for managers and promoters to make the most money with the least risk......but you like to think that when money is no longer an issue a fighters competitive nature is to test himself.

I think the problem is deciding when money is no longer an issue, I can't help thinking that many continue past this point (wherever it may be) in all walks of life but notably in boxing! Jut another fight and I'll quit...…….. well ok, one more then...….had an offer I couldn't refuse but that's it...……, I'm retiring...…….I've been offered a deal to come out of retirement...….I'm retiring again.....

Maybe i heard him wrong but i thought Fury adamantly said he,s not in this sport for the money,so much so that he gave his purse to charity and slated Anthony Joshua as a " cash cow " for Eddie Hearn.....it would seem a strange turn of events to start signing deals with tv companies and going all money orientated all of a sudden Edited March 26, 2019 by gnasher16 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps I've just been around too long, and I'm a cynical old b*****d, but he is in this for the money......END OF! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WILF 48,408 Posted March 26, 2019 Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 I don’t really follow boxing now and have not done for many years. But reading you lads comments it seems the blokes not very pure about himself as a sportsman. Sadly, I don’t think that is much of a talking point because it’s fairly common now imho. When you can earn 3 times more from the bollocks than you can from the game it’s a no brainer for many. I have seen bits on YouTube about him, he seems your typical traveller boy really.....all bollocks and clowning around and you have to try and weed out the bullshit from the truth......bit of a tit. But hey, there’s plenty like that in sport and there’s plenty of focused dedicated lads too.......you know who’s going to have the longer career and proper respect so who cares.
