    Fury's prime was a 28 years old
    Hughie Fury is better at this point.
    Buy Hughie's stock & sell Tyson's because it's going down.

    Has anyone else noticed the sharp decline in reflexes? Check this out

    Maybe Wallin would give other top fighters a fight of their lives too??

    Fury did not look good there. Fury is sort of an up and down guy though. Maybe lazy???

    He seems to fight to the level of the opposition.

    We will see soon enough if he has really slowrd down or if that was just another Fury half hearted effort.

    He was cut savagely above the eye in the third! He fought the rest of the fight with 50% vision. Despite this he outpointed Wallin 9 rounds to 3.

    I think he'll get knocked out by Wilder, he won't get up this time.

    And after that, Wilder will continue to avoid Joshua.

    Almost ruled a tko for Wallin. Fury showed big cojones. I'm concerned if it opens again Wilder will have a field day. Wallin was landing at near 50% ratio

    It was a savage cut, I think the ref should have stopped it and a TKO awarded to Wallin. If there was not so much money at stake i'm sure this is what would have happened.

    All that drinking, drugs, and weight gain put a lot of wear and tear on his body.

    Combine that with his mental problems, and he was always gonna have a short prime.

    Wallin is a 6-6, 235 pound southpaw. A huge southpaw like that could be a problem for anybody. Watch Ali fight a 6-1, 195 pound southpaw (Mildenberger), were Ali's reflexes gone in 66-67? Guys like Wallin, Ortiz, Sanders will always be a "problem."

    You are kind aright there, but a bit off.
    Wallin did what others have not done against Fury, that is try to establish lead hand dominance and also feint and probe Fury.
    Even the least informed boxing fan knows about the lead hand when it comes to orthodox vs southpaw. Well, Fury also uses similar tactics against orthodox opponents(no, he is not the only one. Most world class boxers do so).
    Wallin played Fury´s game and Fury had a really hard time because of it.
    Everyone else just let´s fury dictate the pace and distance.

    1. Fury underesimtated him
    2. Wallin had a great gameplan
    3. cut
    4. Fury clearly had an off night, he was flat as i've ever seen him on fight night

    still grinded out a win

    His reflexes are fine

    I've said this a while ago, Fury is starting to dull, he is starting to go blunt.

    Wilder is going to cave his face in, it's going to be brutal.

    Like Kovalev. Sergey looked past it after Ward I.
