Fury vs. Klitschko

Fury doesn’t care if he loses to Wladimir

by

fury72By Scott Gilfoid: After making a bundle of cash in barely beating former heavyweight world champion Wladimir Klitschko by a 12 round decision last November, Britain’s [or is it Ireland’s] Tyson Fury says he doesn’t care what happens with his career.

Fury says he doesn’t care if he loses his next 10 fights because he’s satisfied with his victory over the 40-year-old Klitschko from his win over him last November. Normally, I would think Fury isn’t on the level about him not carrying, but in looking at how fat and flabby he’s become, I think he honestly doesn’t seem to care.

Fury: I’m the only man that can beat Klitschko

by

fury56675By Allan Fox: After months of negotiations, IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and his team got their way in having former undisputed champion Wladimir Klitschko agree to fight Fury on July 9 at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, England. Fury will have hometown advantage against Wladimir, and he plans on using that advantage to defeat him for the second time. The 6’9” Fury already beaten Wladimir last year in winning a close 12 round decision in Dusseldorf, Germany.

Wladimir was unable take advantage of fighting in front of a large pro-Wladimir crowd of mostly German fans in Dusseldorf. Now it’s going to be Fury’s turn to fight in front of a large friendly crowd. Unlike Wladimir, Fury plans on using the crowd to his benefit by fighting hard and taking chances by throwing punches, something Wladimir failed to do last time due to him being too nervous/confused to let his hands go.

Tyson Fury promising to slug with Wladimir Klitschko in rematch

by

fury67By Jeff Aranow: IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (25-0, 18 KOs) and his team finally announced earlier on Wednesday the location and date for the rematch against the 40-year-old Wladimir Klitschko (64-4, 53 KOs). Fury will be facing the Ukrainian Klitschko on July 9 at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, UK.

Fury is quite pleased at getting the rematch in the UK, because the last time they faced each other, the fight took place in Dusseldorf, Germany, which was a home fight for Klitschko. Fury says he plans on fighting much differently in the rematch with Klitschko by choosing to stand and slug with him rather than getting on his bike like he’d done last November.

McKenna (McJack): Undefeated British hopeful Tyson Fury (20-0, 14 KO’s) is a step closer towards getting his hoped for title shot against WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko (45-2, 41 KO’s) after defeating Kevin “Kingpin” Johnson (28-3-1, 13 KO’s) Saturday night at the Odyssey Arena in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Fury used his long reach, and left jab to win by a lopsided margin. The ringside officials scored the contest 119-110, 119-108, 119-108 in Tyson’s favor.

Recognizing that he was in with the most experienced and talented fighter he had yet faced Fury stuck to his game plan of being cautious. Tyson also demonstrated that he is now serious about his boxing career by getting into the best shape of his career. There were no signs of any excess baggage around the 24 year old Fury’s middle, much to his trainers delight. It was a welcome change for the frequently out of shape 6’9” heavyweight contender.

Hennessy says he’s already spoken to Wladimir’s manager Bernd Boete about this, so it’s pretty much a done deal if Fury can get past Kevin Johnson this Saturday night in their fight in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

Hennessy told the Mirror.co.uk “The fight with Wladimir will be a stadium fight and we would be looking to do it in May, June or July. Germany would be the favorite place for it to happen.”

Tyson Fury: “I Could Beat Both Klitschkos” – Boxing

by

Image: Tyson Fury: “I Could Beat Both Klitschkos” - BoxingBy Peter Wells: Well the big talking Tyson has once again come out saying stupid comments as he’s gone from saying he could beat Sam Peter, to saying he can beat both Klitschko brothers. Honestly this is coming from a guy who only just beat John McDermott, who lost to Danny Williams twice. I’m British and would support Fury, but saying he could beat fighters like the Klitschko’s is outrageous. We’re talking about a guy who has fought a bunch of pushovers, maybe in 5 years mate, but now you would get whupped.
