Great fight considering his previous opponents, Fury in a tight decision IMO.

This is BULLSHIT. Who wants to see prospects fight each other? You either fight journeymen or the champ. What kind of sport do you think this is? :twisted

That's a lot better than expected. Didn't Tyson say he expected to fight 'another bum' in december? Damn those boxers with their false promises!
Looks like Henessy is serious about getting Fury a title shot next year, because Boytsov is highly ranked by all sanctioning bodies - he's #1 contender with the WBO and #3 with the WBC. The fight doesn't make sense if it isn't for Boytsov's rankings, as he's a good fighter who's not exactly a household name. I assume they're maneuvering Tyson in the #1 spot with the WBC in the anticipation of Vitali's retirement.
Still, this is a dangerous fight. Boytsov is a small heavy but he carries a good punch.
I'm going for Boytsov by KO, the other likely outcome is Tyson clinching his way to an UD.
If the fight happens, at least. This is easily Fury's most dangerous opponent and he's only got one month to prepare for him.

Looking at his record and he's got a shit load of KO's on his record. Not TKO's, actual KO's, and a lot of them in the early rounds. Dangerous fight for Fury, a good win on his resume if he can manage it.

Great fight. I just hope that if Fury wins it - and while I think he will, that's more of an 'if' than he has given us recently - he doesn't immediately claim that it proves he is 'beyond Price's level' and avoid him again.

There's a very real possibility that he will tell Price to 'get in line'. :-(

Quite. I really hope that Fury's plan isn't to cash out getting slotted by a Klitschko, as none of his fights seem to be preparing him for a proper title fight.

Give him a year or so and he could be in a postion to fight for the wbc belt when vit retires. Good fight this. Fury will get hurt here, the big question is can he come through it?

Good fight for Fury, lf odds are good I may look at backing Boystov as he hits pretty hard and has a reasonable chin so can definitely cause Fury trouble

No odds for this fight yet although did find odds for Price Fury. In what I feel is a 50/50 fight, Fury is a huge price :think
