    Fury took a hard right hand from Wlad who punched harder than all the above except Price who Fury would toy with anyway.

    It depends on how much he is focusing on preparing for a fight or how much hes focusing on his opponent, if hes focusing on the fight then decent enough, if it for wilder then id say not good enough, but is there anyone similar enough? Not at heavy anyway. Okolie has similar physical appearance but nothing like wilder in style.
    Btw i have no doubt every fighter prepares for each opponent, but how much will change from fighter to fighter and every camp will be different. Its only a theory like.

    Some pretty good sparing there and I don't think he will be able to get anyone to duplicate Wilder.

    Funny none of those guys has a big gas tank but for sparing it isn't really needed.

    This is why Price is the undisputed sparing world champ (USWC) right now..

    I'd imagine Wilder is struggling to find Fury types out there as well..

    Not bad tbf. I imagine Joyce is there as he's a very active fighter with a gas tank and will make Fury work like hell.

    I bet he gives Tyson the best sparring out of all of them. The gym with out the pressure of performing would suit Price down to the ground, and with his height and reach probably impersonates Wilder best imo

    Headgear and 16 oz gloves, he's probably a real problem.

    Price will probably knock down Fury in camp but that's good training for the fight. Fury might have to get up from the floor to win this.

    Fury fans conveniently forget how cunningham put Fury on his arse. And exposed Fury for how easy he is to get rocked.

    If cunningham can achieve that at 6.3 and 80 inch reach.

    Wilder can do a whole lot more at 6.7 and 83 inch reach.

    Fury better start training his jaw

    Those are actually some really good choices, considering there's no one quite like Wilder out there.

    Joyce will mimic his workrate, and force Fury to keep his composure under fire for long periods.

    Ugonoh will mimic his wild, unorthodox style, and prepare him for defending against odd angles of attack.

    Price will mimic his height, reach and power, and maybe prepare Fury to fight hurt or getting up off the canvas.

    Parker will mimic his speed and explosiveness.

    He could maybe supplement his sparring with some of the wilder cruiserweight types like Dorticos or even Huck, but otherwise that's some pretty solid preparation.

    If he's smart he'll get a mixture of cuties and roughhouse guys, and maybe one high workrate type, just to keep him sharp. He'd do wonders to nab Usyk if he could, Scott's always good preparation, and maybe Razvan Cojanu or someone like him to mimic Fury's height and some of his ring presence.

    Not a bad list. Each brings something different to the ring.
