Good article by Matt Christie in this weeks BN regarding opponents & GGG.

That's class, i remember when Floyd wore a rag top when he was over doing the promotion stuff with Hatton.

Never realised that Fury was from a family of Blues that makes it even worse

The £30 charge is probably designed to make new customers think fuck me £12/ mth is good value.

May's £12 buys you Canelo Khan and Wilder Povetkin

I always baulked on Sky as the monthly price was also greeted with a registration free that I refused to pay.

Now with Virgin, and £11 w/no registration fee! Signed up for Golovkin fight and get Hughie Fury(never seen him fight so want to see if he's any good), Wilder, and Canelo Khan and repeats of fights I've missed overseas especially. If the month is good I might keep it it on for Klit/Fury

I can't get their stuff online, what's the gist of it ?

I'm not sure how long GGG can wait for Canelo. Mate of mine suggested Lara as a potential opponent. I'd completely forgotten about him but if he could be persuaded to go to 160 then if GGG demolishes him the contrast between that and Canelo's laboured split decision might heighten the clamour for those two to fight

Makes me laugh all this stuff about the ring and the wraps. The house fighter will always seek to gain an advantage on any card. There are stipulated limits on how much padding there can be underneath the canvas just as there are limits on how big the ring can be. If a fighter suspects that the other side has exceeded those limits his team raises it with the sanctioning body and they deal with it. Naturally each team are gonna try and push things as far as they can - what's wrong with that.

....or even so far that such extremes have never been seen before....would be another way of describing it...

Does make you wonder why the klitsh klan never told Lewis to shut the fuck and stick with their obvious over padded floor...did they need the gypsy that bad to allow him to dictate, of course if they were bang to rights that would explain their reversal....whatever the truth was the non Fury loving lewis was'nt made to laugh alot

Embrace the crowd, win the battle..

Having the advantage of choosing what gloves are used or what ring is used is just that... an advantage if that's how they prefer to have things and do their best work with(Shall we bring home crowds into too which can give a fighter an extra gear and sometimes lead to home town decisions? They have to prepare for these things) but is it cheating? No sorry not for me, these things are agreed on before a fight by any good team which Team Fury clearly is.

You seem to be getting a case together set around the choice of gloves, that's a good slight of hand (forgive me) but i think you'll find the Furys shout was born out of the unseen wrapping..you really must have a fairer approach to the furys...it's no wonder they're shouting for some balance in their evaluation, folk making their own truth up for em after they've clearly (and loudly) stated their case could be seen to be a teeny weeny bit bent...

I'd maybe be more inclined to listen to you, if Fury wasnt a daft homophobic rag ****.
