The media don't like him because he says what he wants when he wants and they dont like that. Hes a breathe of fresh air in the modern world and is simply unique, no one will ever be like him again. Long live the gypsy king What make you say the Media don,t like him. They fucking love him...He is a star both in and out of the ring, simmilar to Big Frank. They didn't when he first broke through, after his mental health battle they have given him more respect. The love in AJ gets considering he was a drug dealer compared to TF is staggering.

That’s redemption He doesn’t need it but it’s got SPOTY all over that Hearn will be shitting it I loved how Fury enters the ring to Patsy Cline's 'Crazy' after Wilder's dig about his mental health

He usually doesn't normally need to box just sparks people out. That's why Fury's performance was so good. He outboxed him, outthought him and beat him up. I don't disagree but he has been out boxed by several opponents only to land one punch. There are also major doubts over the calibre of Wilders opposition. Fury and ortiz aside, he's fought no one. Fury is real deal for sure. Please don't think I'm decrying his performance, ability or status. That's exactly why it was so good m8. In the first fight he stood off and outboxed Wilder and nearly got stopped. This time he took the fight to him and didn't give him a chance.

Fury is a very intelligent boxer, AJ is in trouble now

I think a rematch is likely, wilder is 34 so he's not got long left in the game, he could probably make 15-20m out of a rematch ? deep down i doubt he really wants it but the financial rewards are probably too high to not trigger the rematch, its either that or he'll retire, why would you not take the rematch if you're going to stay in the game ? he's not going to make as much fighting someone like dillian whyte.
i think it could be a case of retire or rematch fury.

If you didn't want Fury to win that fight, you're not a British Boxing fan.
I couldn't give a shit if he flossed naked after the fight, in stilettos - he's a bit of a loon, but he's probably the best Heavyweight this country's ever produced.
And no-one is going to want to fight him after last night, except to get a pay cheque. AJ may as well take up Golf.

Fury is pretty much the complete fighter now, he's great in all departments, he can fight on the inside or outside, he has power to hurt opponents, he can switch to south paw and be just as good, he has the fitness to go 12 rounds, he doesn't really have any weaknesses now.

Love Bunce! But Ramsey is the guru! What a smashing weekend be a Stoke/boxing fan One for the boxing aficionados on here: Buncy commenting on the chutzpah of Fury catching Wilder with a left hook lead in the opening 30 seconds,brings to mind Norman Mailer making a similar comment in 'When We Were Kings' about Ali throwing an almost intentionally disrespectful 12 right cross leads at Foreman in the first round of the legendary 'rumble in the jungle. Which is the more audacious opening to a Heavyweight fight,TF taking it to someone of the punching ferocity of Wilder or Ali insouciantly enraging a colossus like Foreman? Bunce is one of only a handful of pundits (from any sport,) I could listen to all day long. You can tell he's a little bit awestruck at what he's just witnessed as it's the most subdued i've ever seen or heard him. 😂

I said ... arguably. But having said that, he's quicker than Ali (proven) and he's just avoided one of the greatest punchers ever, without a mark on him. The true undefeated heavyweight champion He's faced every side of his personality in the public eye and overcame his own planned death I'm so proud of him, i struggle with mental health and he's shown me you can get over anything and fix your life he's a hero of mine, a true champion Mine too mate 👍

Fury is a disgusting individual. The media fawning over him has come at the cost of brushing over his horrendous views. He was also banned for steroid abuse.
It's like reading a disgusting crapslayer monologue.
Let's not forget:

Fury is now the 1st fighter in the history of boxing to end the reigns of two world champions that have had 10+ title defences.

Furys WWF career is surely over with that 😁 Always felt fury could knock him out as wilder is a one trick pony. Fury will have had him sussed after that first fight but wilder does only need one punch. AJ should cash in and then retire, he wont out box fury and fury has proven he can beat hitters up aswell You got your "stream up" then?

It's like reading a disgusting crapslayer monologue. Let's not forget: I think he said much of that when he was having a mental breakdown ? he says he pretty much lost his mind for a couple of years which led to binge drinking daily and taking lots of drugs. He admits he said and did some very stupid things in the past.
