Tyson Fury To Make His U.S Debut Next March, At Madison Square Garden
By James Slater: A number of fighters who went on to become great heavyweight champions had their pro debuts at the legendary Madison Square Garden in New York, and next March, unbeaten British hope Tyson Fury will have his U.S debut inside the building that saw the very start of the careers of heroes like George Foreman and Evander Holyfield.
Fury is already 15-0(10) and he has already claimed both the British and Commonwealth crowns, but he has yet to fight in America. His promoter, Mick Hennessey, told Ring Magazine’s web site that this will be remedied next March, over the St. Patrick’s Day celebrations.
“We’re looking for another fight in November,” Hennessey said. “Then, touch wood there are no injuries and everything goes well, we’re looking at Madison Square Garden in Saint Patrick’s week for Tyson. That would be one hell of an event.”
Not only does every young fighter, Fury included, dream of fighting inside the historic arena that was host to so many epic fight nights, but the planned March date will also give U.S fans a chance to see the heavily-hyped prospect in the flesh. It will be very interesting to see who they put the 6’9” giant in with in his U.S debut, but first Fury must get past this coming Saturday’s opponent: the also-huge Nicolai Firtha.
“Firtha has said he is coming for a shoot-out and he has fancied it for a long time,” Hennessey said of Saturday’s opponent.
The Americans are now awaiting Fury’s arrival, and the last thing we need is an upset loss that will prevent the U.S debut of the single most talked about young heavyweight on the scene today.
I go for Fury to overcome a spirited challenge from Firtha, 20-8(8); stopping him in the later rounds. I go for either the 7th or the 8th.

Yeah, Briggs wants to come back. And I guess him and the Panda went at it during some podcast, so talks of them fighting.
I know the world can't wait to see that shit

per fightnews he did get hurt pretty badly during one of the rounds but otherwise put a decent beatdown on Firtha before it got stopped by the ref.
As for Briggs fighting on!!!! What the fuck. He took a horrific beating at the hands of Vitali and shouldn't be allowed to fight again.

He got schooled from opening bell to closing bell, serious or not Fury was the better man and would be again if Chisora took it more serious in a rematch.
