Fury wounded at round 3: better to suspend the judgement on his performance?

He's an excellent HW who poses great trouble to other big fighters due to their reliance on size. Fury is too slick for those guys.

But on the other hand, when an opponent has quicker feet and hands, he looks vulnerable. It's just that Fury came along in an era where it's mostly huge HWs, which matches up well with his strengths.

 

fury's stock significantly lowers. very poor performance and I'm a Fury fan

 

That's my take. Wallin was a Duhaupas type challenger and Fury just went life and death with him. Even that last round he was rocked and looking very weary plus leaking claret all over the place.

 

Has the reality hit yet that he's really not as good as he's being shilled to be?

 

It's one of them fights i think really. Every fighter has a couple in their career.
We all know Tyson Fury is more than capable of beating Wallin extremely comfortably for whatever reason it just didn't happen.
I think this has something to do with all the un inspiring fights these heavyweight guys are choosing for themselves, which they can only blame their self for.

 

Fury is always bigging up his power but tonight he had multiple opportunities to land a sweet hail Mary and didn't. I think he has gotten so comfortable with this style that he cannot pull the trigger in the same way anymore.

 

The poorest thing about Furys performance was his inability to get rid of someone who was gassed after 6 rounds. Who hadn’t beaten anyone in the top 40 before.

With the volume of shots he landed and the openings he had there are even more severe question marks over his power.

He dropped at least 3 of the first 6 to Wallin until he gassed which proves he struggles against smaller guys.

No one could pick him to beat Usyk after that could they? Usyk is 6 5 the same as Wallin.

 

Wallin has a respectable chin even though Fury isn't a massive puncher. Still, he took some big shots and wasn't fazed.

 

You are literally choosing delusion over reality. Let that sink in.

 

That's because Fury doesn't hit hard. Occam's 101.

 

Wallin is not a good fighter... that is the problem.

He is a featherfisted heavyweight with no stamina, he could barely throw a punch from the 6th round onwards.

 

He's a physically stronger Hughie Fury.

 

Wallin IS a good fighter. He proved that tonight

 

Mate come on look through my posts I'm an AJ fan out of the three. Fury does my head in sprouting lies all over the place but Wallin was one of the most basic fighters I've seen at world level. Time will tell because when he steps up again i think even Dubious might knock him out in 3 rounds.
