    None what-so-ever.

    Fury has at least a 50/50 chance against anyone in the division save Wlad or Povetkin, but he just is not on that level.

    Now give him another five years to physically mature, and who knows.

    Wladdy has still got a shaky chin - he has just perfected keeping it safe over the years. If Tyson can use his height and possibly reach advantages (not 100% sure of he does have a longer reach) then maybe he can open up Wladdy for a crack at his chin. I Cant really remember the last time Wlad fought his physical
    Match which may cause him issues as he's used to fighting short polish puddings in amongst a couple of useful operators

    Tysons reach is the same as Valuevs. The longest in history.

    in both videos he's asked in light of fury refusing to work with him, which you ignore to suit your narrative.

    my other question stands, do you think haye faked career threatening shoulder surgery?

    Wach was both taller and had a greater reach than Wlad. Didn't help him.
    I think Thompson and Pianeta have greater reach than Wlad and are only an inch shorter.

    The Furys have said they aren't willing to work with Haye because he would pull out again. Hayes replies are that of someone glad he dodged a bullet.

    Yes Haye made out he was having to retire. It was the only way to get out of the fight, the second with Fury the third that year!

    Haye is a drama queen having to post his "hurt my selfys" to try and persuade people he's not just scared.

    Pretty soon Tyson will be the top man in the division and you will never hear of Haye again.

    He was good enough to knock out Hammer.

    you seriously reckon haye faked surgery? mind you, you are using fury refusing to fight haye as evidence of the reverse, and seem to think a man who ducked david price is gonna end up as the man at hw.

    takes all sorts, i guess.

    He has a chance provided he turns up in shape and he uses his size. That said he'd be the underdog, he probably has a 20% chance of beating Wlad currently.

    Does Wlad want the fight? In theory he fights Jennings in April and then Fury after if the WBC unification fight doesn't come off. Does Wlad really need to fight Fury for his legacy?

    If Wlad unifies the division I can see him taking a couple more soft defences even if he has to drop the WBO strap.
