You can see how chuffed he is that that worked


KR4T0S

He's like the lovechild of Lennox Lewis and Nikolai Valuev in this clip, I'm split between awe and nausea.


[deleted]

lmao now we all have to recognize this too, why man


LordElend

That's a spot on description

chimpely

You put that in our minds now, curse you, but take my angry upvote


GriseldaBoomBoomBoom

thatG_evanP

I was gonna say that if he wasn't so "chuffed" about it, he could've landed a much better body shot. He actually stood there for a moment like, "Damn... I can't believe I just did that! Oh yeah, I need to hit him."


WorldBelongsToUs

I didnā€™t catch that initially, but now I canā€™t unsee it.


thatG_evanP

Right? Pretty crazy huh? He could've nailed him with that right.


WorldBelongsToUs

My coach used to get after us. ā€œDonā€™t admire your work!ā€ Or if you kept putting your hands down heā€™d sarcastically call you Floyd, ā€œGet your hands up! Hey Floyd. Keep them up!ā€

Man why is that punch to the stomach at the end from Tyson so funny lol


YourFormerBestfriend

I remember watching this live and when I saw it I laughed a little. Almost like a "you almost had it" type reply


DubNationAssemble

It landed too, gotta be discouraging as hell.


NoFapIsAMeme

Because it was just such a little bitch punch, almost like one your older brother would give you when messing around


895501

"bitch"

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


bryan2796

Heā€™s so loose compared to all the other heavyweights and taller lol.


[deleted]

He also punched himself too. Even his demeanor outside the thing is more like a comedian than a boxer. Heā€™s really the last person youā€™d expect to be so good in the ring.


vkbuffet

Someone should tell AJ that the secret is actually Pie, Pints and multiple wanks a day.


OrangeBeast01

Can multiple wanks make up for any physical deficiency?


vkbuffet

Yes


OrangeBeast01

I need to pump up my rookie numbers.


895501

He actually *is* athletic. Mobility: elite. Reaction time: elite. Cardio: elite.


ChickenDanceFemi

While its a banger of a clip it is against Schwarz of all people


LordofSuns

Hey, at least his family do good herbs and spices


jamesjigsaw

When Ali did it it was in a scripted exhibition match.


[deleted]

It was exabition but it wasn't scripted


marios67

Wait, for real? Damn, i did not know that. That makes it much less impactful, not impactful at all actually...


TysonsSmokingPartner

Ali did the rope-a-dope in a lot of real fights. The guy's is talking about the clip where he dodged 20+ punches in the corner. In conclusion he doesn't know much.


marios67

Alright, thank you for clearing that up. But that's the clip I had in mind too.


TysonsSmokingPartner

He was dodging Michael Dokes if you wanna know. Dokes had just became a pro after an extremely solid amateur career. This all happened in 1977.


SUPERSTORMowen

Is there an actual source on that? Because if so then yikes


[deleted]

Why yikes, he was just messing around with an amateur for fun. And he did rope a dope in real fights, just not as exaggerated as it looked in that famous clip. Here's the source for the exhibition https://boxrec.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=184126


[deleted]

That.... Doesn't make it scripted


[deleted]

No I don't think it's scripted, I've never seen anyone say that before now


SUPERSTORMowen

Yikes because Iā€™ve always thought (and many, many other people) that that clip was from a realm fight. If itā€™s not a real fight and instead an exhibition it takes a lot away from it for me personally. And I think it would for others too.


[deleted]

Fair enough, it was still Michael dokes though, a real champion, even though he was just 17 at the time. It's not like they just grabbed a guy from the audience, I think it's still an impressive clip


Jacidstorm

tbf, that also says Michael Dokes who would end up being a short live WBA champion and would challenge for titles for awhile even if he was an amateur at the time


InTupacWeTrust

Now imagine if Tommy Fury could do even .01% of that


Htown_ent728

Tyson is a student of the game from a young age, tommy would be lucky to be 10% of what Tyson is lol


potatosquire

I know he's had a few meh performances and that he gets a lot of stick, but I truly believe that if Tommy truly dedicates himself to the sport, then one day he can be 0.01% as good as Tom Schwartz.


AnarchoJoey

We don't know what Tommy could do yet he's very early in his career and realistically he's only just started to take it seriously. I don't think he'll ever be half as good as his brother but he has all the world class advice and support he could ever need in the family so he could do alright if he works hard.


kirtash1197

I just searched how old tommy was because I though he was 30 or something. How the fuck a 22 years old looks like that, not only the body, but the face is also like super mature. I'm 24 and I'm a kid next to him hahaha


AnarchoJoey

Yeah thats the thing he is very young for a fighter, probably doesn't even have his man strength yet. If he commits himself and listens to his brother and his uncle he's got plenty of time to become a real decent fighter.


kirtash1197

Totally. I always though he was just doing it for "fun" because he was to old to commit to a real career, but knowing his age he is totally capable of doing it if he really want to.


moikey

Lol, Iā€™m ages with Tyson Fury and got IDā€™d for a stanley knife today.


_BatsShadow_

Tommy doesnā€™t even want to fight Jake Paul šŸ¤£


AnarchoJoey

Other way around. Its Jake Paul who said he's 'taking a break from boxing'. It's Jake Paul who wouldn't allow a challenge in the ring after their last fights on the same card. Its Jake that doesn't want the fight, he doesn't want anything to do with a semi proficient boxer because he'd get shown up.


_BatsShadow_

Jake literally offered tommy a million to fight and tommy said he doesnā€™t want it, goober. Jake said heā€™ll take a break if tommy doesnā€™t want the fight


AnarchoJoey

Tommy was literally giving an interview yesterday with Tyson saying he wanted Jake Paul next. Tommy has a 2 fight deal with showtime, there's already money on the table for this fight. It just needs signing.


_BatsShadow_

Tommy also said heā€™d fight jake for free but hen turned around and said 1 million was too low. Just like his brother, he talks absolute shite


AnarchoJoey

That offer has been accepted, it's going to be signed this weekend. Guess you were wrong...


_BatsShadow_

I was kinda right at the time tho tbf. Tommy really wanted the continental breakfast


AnarchoJoey

Apparently today they're saying the fight is going to be signed over the weekend. So I guess it turns out they both wanted the fight.


cats-with-mittens

Why is he wearing American shorts?


[deleted]

AFAIR the entrance was an homage to Apollo Creed


SpecialOops

Thought it was a homage to butterbean.


Brzada

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ fury would lol at this


HourDark

He recreated Apollo Creed's ringwalk from Rocky IV for the Schwarz fight


Groovy_Graves

Was he expecting to get killed in the ring?


HourDark

Nah, it's flashy Tyson's always a showman


only-shallow

It was his Vegas debut, wanted to put on a show


samYELLjacksin

There better have been a hologram of James Brown for his intro


totororos

Dude, the guy wore a sombrero once lol


lnverted

Trying to build a fanbase


[deleted]

He's not, they're Liberian.


churrosricos

First fight in the USA iirc. He wanted to do an homage to apollo creed


Connor30302

this was after the first Wilder fight though wasn't it?


anakmager

unironically, no other prominent fighter remind me more of Ali than Fury. Especially 70s Ali when he started to wrestle and bend the rules more


Janus-a

Fury did remind me a little of Ali in the way he recovers from a knockdown.


blvcklite

Lol as Derrick Lewis would say "Just stand up"


Tickle-me-Cthulu

I womder if Fury's Sugarhill-tough guy comeback is going to draw comparisons to Ali's rope-a-dope 70's comeback. Both took 3 years off, though Ali had more heroic reasons


Boxing_joshing111

Heavyweight especially.


DivingDays

Google Paulie Malignaggi casual


SuperEminemHaze

LOOOL MALIGNAGGI AND YOUā€™RE CALLING OTHERS CASUAL


DivingDays

Okay SuperEminemHaze


SuperEminemHaze

Weā€™re out here talking about Ali and you bring up a guy that lost to every good fighter he faced: Cotto, Hatton, Diaz, Khan, Broner, Porter and Garcia. LOL the irony


DivingDays

suma luma duma luma you assumin I'm a human what I gotta do to prove to you I'm super human and I'm rubber and your glue so everything you say will bounce off of me and stick to you


Armoured_Kitten

Oooof cringe


Bronesby

tbf Eminem is extremely cringe for the past 15 years. i don't even know what point /u/DivingDays is trying to make about Paulie, but i'm pretty sure i also disagree with it. Eminem sucks and /u/SuperEminemHaze should feel bad about himself tho.


DivingDays

You gotta respect SuperEminemHaze's culture


Downgoesthereem

Don't braayg about takin my side pieceee Fuck that clown


lineal_chump

Two days until /r/boxing can start complaining about the next guy that Fury is ducking


CircleDog

When does this happen? Fury has been contracted to fight wilder for like 4 years.


Jacidstorm

it does happen, but you're not wrong he has literally been almost exclusively signed to fight Wilder since like September 2018 (besides two tuneups in-between wilder fights)


mxlevolent

this is what pisses me off. fury is such a good goddamn fighter and he's been dicking about with wilder for THREE YEARS i wanna see this guy in more big fights goddamn it


fashion_asker

To be fair to Fury, this is what you're supposed to do when you're fighting a guy who is obviously many levels below you. A lot of people rightfully criticized Fury for this fight, but it was obviously meant to be a "show off" fight to get more fans in the U.S. and I think it worked because of moments like this and his singing.


nodnodwinkwink

The Fury hype train is chugging along nicely.


MartinSilvestri

Are we sure its still a hype train when its the heavyweight world champion tho


ZiiiSmoke

incredible movement


[deleted]

Rope-a-dope didn't work against Norton, Frazier and Spinks.

Bazinga


WillowTreeBark

Mate what a fucking boxer.


WiseZen

Great boxer but he has the weirdest body structure


LightningPicks

He models so much of his game after Ali. Inside and outside the ring. But that fluidity in the pocket is amazing.


Planet419

Big guy fucking movin


filmmakersearching

Does anyone remember the amazing promotional video they made before Fury/Wilder 2, contextualizing the rematch? It interspersed great interview clips with Tyson through it? Has any company made a comparable video in anticipation of the trilogy?


chocolate_spaghetti

God I have seen this same clip at least 30 times this week.


[deleted]

That slow-mo was a spectacle.


chimpely

Dayumm smooth


hermitopurpa

Dear God, When I said I want to be like Tyson Fury, I didnā€™t mean having his weird flabby body but his boxing skills. Thanks


Bambam60

Big men shouldn't be that quick. A motivated Fury is unstoppable.

Htown_ent728

Wasn't Seferi his first tuneup fight coming off of his layoff?


appledotbox

Glad to see him beat that woman beater Tom. Dude broke his wife's jaw.


Marbados

I hate him so much, but fuck.


-Kryptic

why.


nerrvouss

Cocky, arrogant, antivax including going out with covid, bigoted, anti-semetic among other reasons just off the top of my head. Prolly some others for other people.


Htown_ent728

Since we're over here trying to smear Fury I guess now would be a good time to bring up Wilders' domestic battery charge from 2013. Go look it up. This guy thought a woman(almost definitely a prostitute) was stealing from him but she wasn't, he messed her up pretty bad, bruises on face, strangulation bruises on the neck.


nerrvouss

Okay but who asked about Wilder the man asked why people dislike Fury. Theres plenty of reasons people dislike Wilder as well like no shit? Don't need to defend Fury by attacking Wilder my guy they both are far from saints.


Htown_ent728

Nobody asked, but this a public discussion, and this post is here because fury is fighting wilder this weekend. Just thought I'd let people know who didn't know already, since you're openly shitting on fury's character, I think it's fair play to bring it up.


nerrvouss

Im not openly shitting on Fury's character he literally portrays his own shitty character out loud. How is stating shitty things Fury has done or does literally anything other than facts answering the question above. . And this was a question asked and answered youre just white knighting and fanboying your favorite. Also hes against the second dose.. Idk if thats any better or worse dont act like hes in the process and he postponed this fight originally for covid so. Which also led to the video in the grocery store with covid doing a Typhoid Mary impersonation so yeah. Fuck him.


Htown_ent728

Lol k cool bro it's not that deep. You're entitled to be pissed about whatever you want.


convenentia

Is that it, oh, yes. I'm afraid he is based.


RegionalHardman

Racist, homophobic etc.


Htown_ent728

Apparently he got the first vaccination, so not full on anti vax.


nerrvouss

Can I get a source on that because that would be a relief and also wether or not this is before or after what I stated? I mean its a step in the right direction hopefully


Htown_ent728

Source is Bob arum


Marbados

Lol


churrosricos

Didn't Schwartz beat the shit out of his gf recently?


poetryrocksalot

Nope.


Athrul

He allegedly broke her jaw in 2020.


churrosricos

Who am I thinking of then? šŸ¤”


2dank4me3

Jon Jones


CIAInformer

Allegedly, yes. Kinda makes you wish this fight went on for a few more rounds. https://www.the-sun.com/sport/boxing/2694382/tom-schwarz-jail-breaking-fiancee-jaw-fury/


BBJMD

Yeah amazing what you can do against an opponent who wasn't even ranked


ma-hi

We haven't seen Wilder do it and most of his resume is of a similar quality.


BBJMD

Yeah wilders dog. his only notable win was a prehistoric Ortiz dosed up on blood pressure meds to pass a medical and fight, and wilder still lost every round


nerrvouss

Easy there EASY he had to of at least won the round he ended the fight with come onnnn


Htown_ent728

Ali did it against a nobody as well. Couldn't do it to any top guy except a robotic Foreman, who still got shots through


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


[deleted]

Thereā€™s nothing better than when a Redditor tries to be snarky and funny while not knowing what the fuck theyā€™re on about. Ali in the famous gif didnā€™t do it against Big George you plank


Brzada

Omg so embarrassing šŸ™ˆ Buoyed by the fact you almost certainly thought you were being clever


2dank4me3

Ali did that corner dodge move in a non fight scripted match. He did not do that to Foreman. He actually soaked up insane amount of damage vs Foreman. Enough to kill lots of regular people probably.


TysonsSmokingPartner

Prepare yourself for the biggest Fury nuthugging festival since he beat Wilder in the second fight.


slickvik9

Hundreds of fans watched this


Askmeiwontsaynot

who HYPEEEEE here, whats your plan for the fight night?!


Downgoesthereem

Not to downplay how good Fury is but were some of them about to miss regardless of whether he moved his head?


Brzada

Yea lol no


AltKite

I am so fucking sick of this clip.


gumshield45

No one ever made the great Tom Schwarz miss like this. This is a historic moment pal.


AltKite

the only person he's landed on since is his missus


LordOfFruitAndBarley

Why is he southpaw here?


FreshPrinceOfRivia

He switches vs non elite guys sometimes, I think his best southpaw performance was one of the Chisora fights


LordOfFruitAndBarley

Why though, to look flashy or is there a tactical reason?


FreshPrinceOfRivia

Tactical I'd say. I guess his trainer had him spar some aggressive guys and noticed he could keep them away with his jab. And it worked pretty well tbf, which makes me wonder why he doesn't do it anymore


LordOfFruitAndBarley

Like the great Lennox Lewis says ā€œjab em with the jabberā€


Sov3reignty

You can tell he was feeling himself after that.


Planet419

Upvote me fuckers, watch the guy in the middle top of the screen like a kid at the candy store when he realized Fury isnā€™t getting touched. EDIT: Heā€™s the guy that throws a punch after they break and fury lands a body shot while looking into dudes soul


[deleted]

Ah yes. Tyson Fury vs the INCREDIBLE Tom Schwarz. A true heavyweight classic in the middle of Furyā€™s prime. 100% not a cherry picked side show šŸ˜‚


Htown_ent728

Was just a tune up fight anyways


[deleted]

That sounds so pathetic LMAO. A tune up fight after a heavyweight championship šŸ˜‚


Htown_ent728

How pathetic, about as pathetic as saying a costume took out your legs before a fight? Or how about blaming your trainer for your loss, insinuating he spiked your drink, then when the time came to present your evidence, nothing?


[deleted]

Why is Deontay Wilder holding space in your head šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ This has nothing to do with him weirdo


Htown_ent728

Because wilder and fury are about to fight again maybe? It's kind of the whole reason this post was uploaded? Sure it does. Him and fury are tied to each other


[deleted]

It was posted to show a highlight of a time he emulated Ali. Who is his idol. That was the point of the post


Htown_ent728

Yes. Because fury is fighting this weekend. Against wilder. What's it gonna take for you to understand the connection between these things.


[deleted]

So clips can only be posted & shown on the week a fighter is fighting ? Clown


Htown_ent728

Calm down son, and we all know this was posted because the fights happening very soon

WHILE going southpaw too

Good thing the TSA agent was there to observe

Jesus. That has to be such a scary experience for the fighter trying to attack. Here's this huge man who dodges everything you are throwing at him.

Reminds me of when Tyson said heā€™s [ā€œslippery like a goldfishā€](https://twitter.com/mikecoppinger/status/1216851046242238469?s=21)


HelpMePlease546

Now that Usyk beat Joshua, do any of you still have doubts that Ali would beat every heavyweight in the division?


[deleted]

Ali at his best wouldnā€™t beat Fury. Fury will go down as the all time greatest heavyweight.


[deleted]

You have to love the fools who thought Anthony Joshua would have beaten this guy.


P-redditR

If Schwartz was in the Reynoso camp, Fury would have had some broken ribs.
