Tyson Fury could barely land a glove on Wladimir Klitschko? Where exactly was the masterclass?

    I'd call it how it was. I wouldn't be claiming it was a close fight like the OP.

    I was and am a huge Wlad fan.

    It wasn't a great win but he did what he had to do to win the fight. Great fighters aren't always great.

    The irony that the Wlad nuthuggers who salivated at exactly the type of performance their hero was best known for - are now eternally butthurt because their champions reign was ended in exactly the same fashion

    Fury showed good defensive skills but he didn`t land much.

    Not sure if you guys remember, but vitali was genuinely pissed at Wlad losing to Joshua, as if it shouldn't have happened.

    After the fury fight, all he could do was watch the gypsy king sing and he knew no way was little brother beating this don

    Landed about as much as klit did against haye?

    It was still a landslide victory. People coming out with so much bull**** here.

    Oh he wasn't that big of an underdog. Oh, he didn't land hundreds of punches, oh he didn't win by ktfo.....

    Nobody ever did what fury did to Wlad ....period. And that too in his backyard

    He spun tied up, and confused the hell out of Wlad… and he did it on Wlads turf.

    But Fury had a reach advantage and still didn`t land that much.

    He made klitschko look like proper dog meat. Couldn’t work out his elite feints and off set rhythm the whole fight. Made klitschko throw next to nothing for 12 whole rounds. Bare in mind this is klitschko not some bum.

    He made him miss but rarely made him pay with counters, Fury is not a good, consistent counter puncher.

    Context is precisely what's missing from the OP.

    Impressive win? Yes
    Impressive fight? No
    Masterclass? Hell no!

    In comparison, Jennings in the fight before Fury landed more and harder shots on Wlad over 12 rounds.
    It was a masterclass in the "don't hit, and don't get hit" category. Borefest and one of the worst titlefights in HW history.
