Fury McDermott II Weigh-In
Today was the weigh-in for the the rematch and English title clash between Tyson Fury 10(8)-0 and John McDermott 25-6(16). The fight will also be a British heavyweight title eliminator. Fury weighed in at 19 stone 4lb or 270 lbs while McDermott weighed in at 18 stone 2lb or 254 pounds.
"It was a hard and tight fight [the last time], but this time there will be no doubt about the winner. "I got the vote on the night, but too many people have told me I deserved to lose. I will put that right. If I'm any good I'll beat McDermott. If I lose I will pack up my gloves and get a job. I don't want to box at a lower level - what's the point?"
This should be a interesting match since their last fight was a debatable decision in favor of Fury with Fury getting 98 to 92 decision victory. Interesting enough even though Fury weighs more in this fight, he actually looks trimmer. So maybe he has been hitting some weights. Let's see if that hurts or helps him in the ring. I think we might see some stronger punching power this time from Fury. We will have to see.

Fury McDermott II Postponed Again
Looks like the highly anticipated rematch between Tyson Fury 10-0(8) and John McDermott has once again been postponed. They were rescheduled already to face one another at the end of this month on May 22nd in Manchester, but according to McDermott's promoter Frank Warren, the fight has been rescheduled once again for the end of June as per the BBB of C's orders. Supposedly, Fury's promoter Mick Hennessey for reasons unknown as of yet requested another extension. The British board is angry and is giving room for the fight to take place by the end of next month at the latest. The proposed new date for the rematch will be June 11th..
Fury won the British heavyweight title last September when he beat McDermott by a controversial points win. He was ordered to have a rematch because of this controversy, but due to injuries he sustained in his next fight, Fury was unable to fulfill that rematch request and was stripped of his title.
Since then unbeaten Derek Chisora has become the British champion and easily beat a faded Danny Williams in his last match. So, this rematch will be a final eliminator for the winner to take on Chisora, which will be a great match.
"You have to take the good with the bad and Mick has been good to me, so I'm not thinking about looking for another promoter. What I do need though is to fight more often. One fight in eight months is not enough. I've not even had much sparring.
"This fight [with McDermott] has been called off about five times and I don't know what's going on. I have to get my career moving."
Come back for more information on why this fight was rescheduled and the new fight date.....

Fury Blasts Blasko In 1
Tyson Fury easily dispatched with heavyweight Hans-Joerg Blasko (9-3-0 coming into the fight) inside 1 round via a KO victory which was the chief supporting bout to the main card of Sykes vs. Morris for the British Super Featherweight title in Huddersfield.
This is what Fury said before the fight about his opponent..
“Just like my team Manchester United, I need to make a point this weekend. I’ve been away and it’s time to return back to my slot as the number one domestic heavyweight, in the premier league of boxing.”
“Forget that other London rival, Derek Chisora, he’s just been keeping my seat warm. While he’s been snogging men, I’ve been sparring them. Once I’m done with Blasko on Friday night, I’ll maybe have another fight before resolving the McDermott situation once and for all.”
“In my opinion it’s no surprise Danny Williams swerved Chisora. After all he has a wife and kids and you know, that’s not his thing.” laughed Fury “I’ve been saying for a while I would knock out Chisora, but maybe I should offer to put him to bed, that may be the right approach for a man of his inclination.”
“But joking aside, if you’re reading this Derek, I’ve got a big smack on the lips waiting for you at the end of the year if you’re up to the job.”
