Tyson Fury takes aim at Daniel Ghi, Wladimir Klitschko

Top boxing contender Tyson Fury and #1-ranked kickboxer Daniel Ghiță trained together in 2012. But now they are on opposite sides as Ghiță prepares to face Rico Verhoeven on June 21 for the GLORY World Heavyweight Championship. Fury has trained extensively with Verhoeven and on Thursday night he picked his side in the conflict via a typically provocative tweet.

Heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury has waded into the war of words going on between Daniel Ghiță and Rico Verhoeven.

Fury, working towards a top contender spot in boxing's heavyweight division, knows both men well. Verhoeven and Ghiță are former training partners and Fury trained with them both in recent years.

Until recently, Ghiță did a lot of his training at the SuperPro Center in the Netherlands, headed by Verhoeven's coach Dennis Krauweel.

Anglo-Irish boxer Fury was also often to be found there. He has spent considerable time based in the Netherlands in recent years, preferring the peace and quiet he can find there, and he has trained with Verhoeven, Ghiță and Albert Kraus among others.

Ghiță stopped training with Verhoeven and Krauweel last year but Fury maintains ties with the SuperPro group Twitter war broke out earlier this week between Ghiță and Verhoeven. On Thursday night, Fury got involved.




Ghiță and Verhoeven are ranked #1 and #2 respectively in the world of heavyweight kickboxing and on Saturday June 21 they will dispute the vacant World Heavyweight Title at GLORY: LAST MAN STANDING in Los Angeles, California.



We know where Tyson Fury is putting his money but what about you - are you rolling with #TeamGhita or #TeamVerhoeven for this one?

BE

 

Wait... who's on whose side??

I never understand what's being directed at who in a twitter chat.

 

so Tyson and Ghiță sparred together before ?

 

well I can't blame ya, twitter sucks

Fury supporting Verhoeven and saying that Ghiță is a bitch like Wlad Klitschko, Rico on the other hand saying that Tyson will be soon the number 1 boxer.

Yes, in the Netherlands. But back in 2012 when Ghiță had another coach. Tyson was close to make his debut in kickboxing in Romania last year.

 

yes, the article states that fury trains alot in the netherlands and so does/did Ghita

 

would be kool to see a video of that :icon_chee

 

Glory are finally promoting the events better! There is still a lot of work to do until to become comparable to the UFC.

And Rico isn"t even known for his leg kicks!

 

nice pics.

Those recent?

Fury looks pretty trim in them. Looked alittle fatter when he was facing up with Chisora.

 

bah... I'm an idiot.
You said 2012 in the post.

 

Lol at fury calling Ghita a bitch, Ghita would snap his legs in half if they would fight.
Still rooting for Verhoeven though, only to see Spong being very creative with his excuses.

 

Do you listen to rap/rock?
You sound aggressive.

 

one legkick from Ghita would cripple him.

 

How do i sound aggresive? I'm just stating that I think it is funny that Fury calls Ghita a bitch, even though Ghita would chop his leg off.

And as a matter of fact i do listen to rap.

 

That explains everything.

Yeah because music like this is so aggresive amirite?

 

Ah the old twitter beef. Five to one its just a not so stubble publicity stunt. I highly doubt Ghita even mans his twitter, probably doesn't even know how to use the damn thing. This is probably just to grab fan attention and to give the Tyson vs Wlad discussion a little fuel.

 

You can go ahead and move the word "probably" from that.

 

Yes but their are special people that still want to believe. So out of courtesy I'll leave it be; Santa and the Easter bunny will also be in Rico and Ghita's corners respectively.

 

Contrived and Lame. I love how Rico Bought his 100k twitter followers lol
