Undefeated Irish boxer, Tyson Fury, with a solid 21
wins, 15 KOs and no losses under his belt, wants to fight the impressive
reigning heavyweight champion of the world, Wladimir Klitschko. Fury
has called him names in public, such as a “p****” in seeking to
fight him in the ring.

However, Fury’s approach and image are apart of the
reason Klitschko has refused to respond. If Fury defeats capable
challenger, Dereck Chisora again in Manchester, England on July 26,
2014 during their rematch, has an image makeover, undertakes a
stronger training regimen and has a credible sports law firm pitch
the fight rather than calling Klitschko out with insults, he stands
a greater chance of getting the bout with the world champion. It
would be a good fight for boxing fans.

Fury does a lot of trash talking and uses expletives
and crude phrases that have now gotten him into trouble with the
boxing commission in Britain, but if he apologizes, asks for
leniency and does not do it again, the punishment shouldn’t be too
great. The level of trash talk has detracted from his athleticism,
but at the end of the day, you don’t win as many fights as Fury has
without having a talent for boxing. That wasn’t a fluke. There’s
boxing talent behind that mouth.
Wladimir Klitschko. They should call him Wlad the Impaler.
Fury could go quite far, but he needs a more advance
training regimen and a very savvy team behind him to bring out his
full talent and marketing potential. Boxing is indeed a sport, but
there is also a business side to it that if handled correctly can
make great boxers into legends. It’s more than what you do inside
the ring. Other top British heavyweights, in addition to Fury and
Chisora are David Haye and Anthony Joshua.
