    There are a couple good things about Fury. He has been steadily improving himself, he seems to have a good fighting spirit and he knows how to use his strengths to a good advantage.

    Clinches should be interesting and I don't doubt this will be a properly promoted fight with good PPV figures. But I can't see Klitschko losing.

    His stamina is decent? You must have a very high standard for stamina, to classify a 6'9 120 kg man that moves non stop for 12 rounds as having "decent" stamina. His endurance is downright atg for someone his size.

    Wlad may be aged and looked like **** his last fight, but lets give Fury credit if he manages to win. Lets not be like Lennox Lewis nuthuggers that spew **** like "110 pounds overweight 90 year old Lennox destroyed V.K on a 10 second notice".

    It'll be fun watching fury trying to get up off the canvas!

    Furys defence is still awful, klitschko hits hard and the overhand right will be there all night, not to mention that leaping left hook he kept catching pulev with.

    Fury won't last 3 rounds

    Moving vs. a C level fighter like Hammer is different from moving vs. Wlad. Wlad will chase him down and make Fury work defensively like never before. Fury will be running out of gas by round 6-7 and will become a sitting duck for Wlad.

    Peter's KO% was 70%, Fury's is 75% :good

    As I said Fury might not have one punch KO power, but he certainly carries power to stop opponents.

    How could you ever be? Vits was much better than Fury ever will be. Once he's beat all his arrogance will go out the window with his confidence following closely behind. He'll hang around a few more years beating B level fighters and after a couple more losses at the A level he'll fade into obscurity.

    I'm more concerned about Fury not showing up than I am about his chances of actually winning this fight...

    I really don't put much stock in Wlad's performance against Jennings, as he rarely got pushed past 2nd gear. Jennings fought to survive, not to win, and Wlad was happy to take the lopsided W.

    I don't think that he's going to take the same going-through-the-motions approach with Fury, however. Fury is big, talented, and has legitimately gotten under his skin, much like Pulev.

    I'm expecting to see significantly more urgency out of Wlad this time around.

    Wladimir will be fighting father time and Fury. Father time wins out in the end, but I doubt Fury will. Even aided by time.
