    :think this is a man who is highly intelligent in the ring. im watching the replay from yesterdays fight with christian hammer and i see a fighter who possesses the skills to give wladimir problems. fury is taller than wlad by 3 inches and has a longer reach by 4 inches. I know most people think fury doesnt have a chance to beat waldo. i think fury will surprise a lot of people when they finally fight:smoke

    People judge him their hearts rather than their heads. He is disliked by many for his antics outside of the ring and because of this people focus on all the negatives they can rather than seeing all the positives. I think he is seriously underrated, especially if you have followed his career like I have and know what he can bring when he is on form.

    I still haven't seen him fight in top shape, he obviously didn't take the Hammer or Chisora fights seriously, which adds to the way he's underrated, depending on which way you look at it.

    Think he falls short against Wlad but would seriously school Wilder, Pulev, Browne etc.

    not much power. Overweight not in great condition. Suspect chin.

    Wilder and Wlad will make short work of him. He's just not that good.

    He's pretty skilled for such a big guy and I'll admit, he's improved over the years, but he doesn't have a great chin, I mean he's been put down hard by the likes of Pajkic and Cunningham. Wlad wins for that reason.

    Frank W told Wilder pick up the phone and the fight would be made over night. No problems.

    Wilder wants no part of Fury.

    Fury is stopping ranked contenders without having to leave first gear.

    Wilder at his best couldn't stop an old , sick , over weight plodder who can't fight on the front foot:patsch:rofl:oops:

    He's ugly ,awful body, no power , he's an arm puncher with suspect chin , old past prime Wlad would drop him and win UD or late TKO , Wilder would just smoke him outta there.

    Overweight yet clearly a much, much, much , much better BOXER than Wilder

    It seems that the more victories he gets the more people think he is a joke, the Transnational boxing rankings (The most respected rankings) are right to have him above Wilder, who couldnt KO Charlie Zelenoff ffs

    He has never ever shown any signs of stamina problems going 12, so what does having a pudgy body have to do with it?

    Wilder on the other hand, has only went 12 with a guy who refused to throw punches at him, and on the handful of occasions he did, he was wobbled and backed off

    This is Fury in a nutshell. Best attribute is he throws multiple shots but the writing is on the wall for him

    But Wilder was put down by a fighter who could barely be classed as a journeyman and he couldn't stop Charlie Z

    Why? he's done the 12 rounds comfortably plenty of times

    It seems most are underestimating Fury. Until someone beats him he deserves a bit more respect than what he is receiving.

    Did I say he has stamina problems? I said he is ugly and his body looks awful and that's not how people want heavyweight champion to look like, he's featherfisted and these are just a few reasons he's not going to get a lot of love.
