    Goddamn, Fury is a mess. He's slow as molasses, and he got floored by a featherfisted Cruiserweight by a punch THAT DIDN'T EVEN LAND FLUSH. This fight proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that Wlad, Vitali, and Haye would KTFO Fury. The Klitschkos wouldn't have put up with that taunting bull**** he did in the first round.

    The shot he landed for the kd was decent but yea i think we all knew fury is rather limited. Euro level at best and shouldnt even dare consider getting in with Haye

    Something I forgot to add:

    Fury constantly kept his hands down in the first round. Haye would have exploited the **** out of that.

    The fact that Fury is a top ranked contender shows that aside from the Klitschkos, Haye, and maybe Pulev, this heavyweight era is godawful.

    No you went to far. Povetkin got his ass beat by Huck. Povetkin is overrated and Fury would make easy work of him. Fury will expose Pulev next thank god.

    Don't think Vitali would KO him.

    The punch he knocked out Cunningham with was ridiculously illegal though

    Yes it is bad but Fury is better than Pulev. Pulev is godawful and I don't know why he is ranked so high.

    no it shows that a big ass guy like Fury with decent power can get far with clever matchmaking. I bet you dont know the times when guys like Schulz (almost became world champion) or Marvis Frazier were serious contenders.:patsch Please dont tell me only this era has some weak contenders. Also funny how you dont mention Povetkin.

    marvis frazier had a few good wins. i love when people always compare different eras.its funny because they say the same crap in every era.and its always the era sucks.

    just off the top of my head think about this.after ali beats foreman he fights wepner.

    larry holmes faught marvis razier after frazier only had like 10 fu**ing fights.

    ali faught spinks who had like 8 fights or so. :deal

    that just goes to show you he fights reckless when he's not threatened he feels they can't hurt him.its inexperience.furys a good fighter when focussed.good for boxing.

    Wlad nuthuggers fear Fury. That is why they can't stop bashing him. Fury was not hurt by that punch. When he got up his legs were fine. That same punch would have put Wlad Klitschko on his ass and Pulev.

    21 fights is inexperienced? Sure it may be relatively new to the sport, but that's still MORE than enough to know to take EVERY opponent seriously, and not taunt in the middle of a fight.

    Also, Fury has had 34-35 amateur fights. See previous sentence.
