Fury did a lot better once he actually dumped his ego a bit. He was a nob for the first couple of rounds. Once he got his guard up and started actually doing things right, he turned it around.
Still don't rate him though. He wins because of his size/weight. Klitschko is a different league IMHO.
//Size won. Simple. Boxing style he was outclassed.
//Great KO though.
Yeah exactly, but did you notice the way he pinned Cunnigham's head with his left forearm before that KO RH punch? Still using brute force to win all the time.
Watching Huey Fury at the moment, and to be honest, more impressed with him than Tyson, boxing-wise (even though his opponenet was just a static punch bag).

I know right. right from the off i noticed he looks much better than tyson fury and hes only 18. i say he's got better potential
Poor performance by tyson fury. lucky he got the ko to be honest. boxing is a discipline sport, if you get arrogant, you'll get punished. lets hope he's leant from this
Big card at the Motorpoint Arena in Sheffield this Saturday with Khan vs Diaz as well as Garcia vs Judah on Saturday. My predictions are Khan UD and Garcia KO.
Anyone else stay up to watch Trout/Canelo? Comments?
Yeah i watched it. There seems to be a significant divide in peoples opinion on who won the fight. I had canelo up by 2 rounds at the end of the fight. very impressed with canelo

I say khan stops diaz on cuts eventually but i think he has a tough time. Diaz ain't a joke, i saw him fight shawn porter and he gave him a good fight. Garcia should KO judah

Same here. His head movement and defence was extremely impressive.
I think the main argument for Trout seems to be "He was busier" - but I think this misses the point that most of the time he was punching thin air, and also it seems to me, not really pronating and snapping his punches completely. Whereas Canelo was exhibiting very tight technique and accuracy.
I agree, Canelo by UD by a couple/few rounds. If this had been an amateur fight, Trout would have won for being busier, perhaps.
