    Nice hypothesis, but you don't know that....not that you couldn't be right, obviously. and...why Fury?? What they have in common is they both think they can sing :)

    Have you not heard - Fury and Hamilton are to duet on a "Gypsy-Gangsta" style cut ;)

    He lost out to a guy with zero personality, Murray is about as exciting as waiting for a glacier to melt in the middle of winter....... I might have voted for Ennis if I could be bothered, at least I seem to remember she is almost hot. Fury took the 'just to make a point' votes after his outbursts the other day....

    Mike was different. Can't compare the two. Mike wanted everyone to be scared to death of him (and so they should), he was never going to be in the runnings for who is the most likeable :eek:.

    Lewis tries very hard to be liked by many (and at the same time shrugging it off, the two things contradicting with each other is part of his unlikeability IMO).

    yup, agree.

    Have to say I was highly surprised that Lewis lost out to even Fury, who is as unlikeable as they come! Really thought he'd have more than that...:D

    I had look up what the Fury issue is.....typical 'young and famous' actions.

    Now that is embarrassing. WTF was up with Tyson singing after he "won" the heavyweight championship. He should have been immediately stripped of the belt for crimes against humanity.

    Exactly. Plus he was a great fighter with insane power and great hand speed and head movement. The fight between Klitschko and Fury was awful - barely watchable.

    Who wants to listen to a guy like Hamilton? He's just a talented peasant. Without any style nor class. Somebody to forget asap.

    I've had the misfortune of having seen Fury since the beginning of his professional career. He's always been a class A tool, very arrogant and thinks the world of himself and just portrays himself as someone without much intelligence.

    I'll look forward to someone KOing him then. He is so big though, it will be difficult even for a more skilled fighter. Although I have to admit, I was glad to see Wlad finally lose - jab, jab, jab, straight right, jab, jab, jab. Snoozefest. I think Samuel Peter was a better fighter than both of them, but lacked any discipline despite some talent. I saw him knock Wlad down like 15 times in AC but still lose the fight. Heavyweight division is such a joke these days.

    Just watching the interview now. Amusingly it took 3 titles before 60mins could be bothered :eek:

    "how many black drivers in F1" - Great start to the interview. Who gives a ****. How many black drivers in Nascar/Indycar?...

    ohh right... :rolleyes:



    The interview was pretty crappy.

    Not necessarily (kimi)

    It's just Hamilton who is boring to hell

    I'd rather watch icecream melt. In fact didn't watch this interview

    Any PC driver interview is boring. Mansell (once he was in the States), MS, Seb are all boring. Only un-PC guys like Villeneuve jr, Montoya and Kimi are fun to listen to.

    Sorry for continuing the off topic, but yes, he has a good height advantage...but the real reason he's not going to get knocked out is because the heavyweight division is on an all time low.

    A real tyson would have knocked him out in the first 3 rounds with ease.

    Three rounds - but only if Iron Mike was having an off day

    Tyson Fury wouldn't have had the b:censored:lls to get in the ring with Mike Tyson in his heyday!

    Before Iron Mike got in with the wrong crowd and went off the rails, he was like The Terminator of boxing!:

    Kyle Reese: "Listen, and understand! Mike Tyson is out there! He can't be bargained with! He can't be reasoned with! He doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear! And He absolutely will not stop!, ever!, until you are knocked out!"

    Forget the latter "three ring circus" nonsense that was the downfall of Mike Tyson, check out the hunger and devastation he caused on his way up!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaG4jFbcfms

    In his day, Mike Tyson was one of the most awesome fighters the World has ever seen!

    Saying that though, they'd both be rubbish at F1! ;)

    I agree, iron mike was awesome..... He was on a documentary with Trevor McDonald the other day, came across as a nice guy, if naive about his past.

    He's actually a lot smarter than people give him credit for, and has a tremendous amount of knowledge and respect for the history of boxing. Sad childhood and a lot of problems to overcome, including being knocked out several times as a child. You can read about his struggles here:

    Mike Tyson Psychiatric Reports | The Smoking Gun

    You have to open the document on the left of the page, then hover in the upper right of the pop-up to advance pages - kind of weird. Sad story.

    More recently (5 years ago maybe?) his young daughter died while under the supervision of another adult - in a treadmill accident. Just horrible.
