Don't really watch boxing, but really good to see so much respect between both opponents, both acting like gentleman.
Very different to Dereck Chisora who is an absolute disgrace, spitting in Klitschko's face before their fight, slapping his brother and then having a brawl with Haye (another with no class)

Chisora as fought the best to be fair to him
Tempers flair some ppl handle it better than others
Del Boy is normally cool until whatever opponent winds him up then all hell breaks loose

Not entirely sure why Haye chose the press conference to start an argument with him, but extremely unprofessional behaviour from both, however you look at it.
Especially with threats like; "I will shoot you, I will physically shoot you!" (as oppose to.. 'mentally'..?..)

He beat the heavyweight super champion in his own back yard someone who wasn't beaten for 11 years and gave him a boxing lesson
Snooker is a lot tougher sport than boxing, snooker players have to be super fit as they are on the table for a long time and they play all day, boxers just have to do 12 x 3 minute rounds so they are only performing for 36 minutes and they get a cig break between each round.
lol, i've been boxing for about 6 years and have played snooker most of my younger years with my uncle and my brother who have both run snooker clubs and there's no way that snooker is a tougher sport, i'd take playing snooker for a week solid over 12 rounds of boxing, have you tried giving and taking shots for even a single 3 minute round the amount training and stamina boxing takes is unreal?
But.....you're absolutely spot on about how tough it is, when I first started out I couldn't believe how tough it was. Also, for people who are already fit, being able to run miles upon miles they still struggled, a completely different type of fitness.
I must admit I miss the boxing, I was a bit overweight at the time and was pretty fast for the weight that I was........I got down to just over 11st last year and I reckon I'd have been decent. All ifs and buts though.
Fury beat wlad quite easily put on a clinical boxing display
We has ibo ibf wba and wbo world heavyweight champion the only belt he didn't have was the wbc, he was immediately stripped I think of the ibf although they knew he was contracted to give wlad an immediate rematch they said he had fight there mandatory which was obviously impossible it was the excuse needed to rob his title after all who wants a gypsy representing your organisation fury was treated disgracefully that lead to a down wards spiral cocaine abuse etc he reliquinched his titles lost his boxing licence and had t fought for 16 months whilst currently weighs 24.5 stone

tbh the only reason fury beat wlad is because wlad didn't put any effort into the fight, you could see his heart wasn't in it throughout the fight, imo he just wanted the pay day. Fury is a plank and always has been, he appeared on the scene when there were no real decent heavyweights and won his belts, do you think he would of lasted say in the late 90s early 00s when heavyweights were at the top of their game?
The fight with joshua imo was his last chance to try and get another shot at a belt before he hangs the gloves up for real, which is why he put a bit more in, truth be told i reckon he still could of threw more at it and possibly took the fight, i think he allowed joshua too much recovery time after dropping him.
