Was the foam padding the reason why Klitschko lost?

    I know they changed it but what was the issue? Fury thought there was too much?

    It's been the foam, all this time he's been winning due to making his opponents fight in 8 inch deep memory foam.

    There were 3-4 layers additional to what was in the contract and what was deemed suitable for a fight.

    Normally it's 1 layer, but Klitschko and his team put 3-4 extra layers on. :nut

    It was honestly like a trampoline when they first got to it. Videos can prove it.

    MVC lies and makes things up constantly to back up his points. Doesn't pay to read his posts or give him any attention whatsoever.

    You just did. I was right, you were wrong

    I picked Fury to win, I said the foam padding was going to get taken off and it did.

    Possibly. Wlad was recovering from calf injury going into the fight.

    a trampoline would have mad it a more exciting fight thats for sure :deal

    there were shennanigans with the gloves too :-(

    looks like waldo was trying every little trick in the book, but in the end the skill level of Tyson was just too great :deal

    Klitschko lost an edge no doubt and lost one of his mental games.

    anytime a fighter has to re wrap they get exposed

    The reason was blatantly inferior skills.

    Wlad is robotic but Fury is a real fighter and not a scientific boxer. Wlad is old and past his prime and Fury is in his prime. Right now, Fury is the more skilled combatant.

    Outstanding call. You're a shining beacon in this dark dank hole.

    I found out that he had to re-wrap for Jennings too. I was at that fight in New York's MSG.
