    then Fury went on a two year food/drugs/alcohol/weight-gain bender and the fight never came to pass.

    I think Wlad was so disgusted with his lackluster performance that a highly motivated Wlad would have at the minimum UD'd Fury..

    My opinion.

    What's yours for a Wlad Fury rematch?

    Fury beat Wlad in the sauna in 2011

    The 2015 bout was the rematch

    He lost twice by UD.

    How many times does Wlad want to get embarrassed? He is a midget clincher and pusher that's all he's good for.

    I think Wlad will return after Usyk beats Fury and demand his rematch.

    Wlad beating Fury at his age would be hilarious

    Usyk will get ringwalked by Vitali & Wladimir, Fury will stand over all 3 of them and stare into their souls. Lennox will quickly jump over the ropes stand next to Fury as all three of the Ukrainians begin to tremble profusely

    Fury likes rematches too, ones he knows he will win that is.

    Yeah I wrote a thread about this in the classic. fury was absolutely petrified of a motivated Wlad, the man LITERALLY Retired for almost 3 years because the Wlad rematch traumatized him immensely. Wlad was a long reigning champ, he deserved the contracted rematch but Fury didn’t want anything to do with it.

    Wlad in 2016 would have probably won by KO.

    You watch sluggish Fury against a washed Chisora and you know rematch Wlad 16 beats Fury 22. Fury fans claim he only performs when threatened of course.

    It took almost 5 months for Wlad to set a date for the rematch. Many though Wlad was taking his time hoping Fury blew up like he did before the Joey Abel fight

    "Wlad was unmotivated"

    Wlad wasn't Andy Ruiz. He was the most motivated he'd been since the Haye fight if not ever and got monumentally schooled and clowned in his backyard by a relatively green Fury in his world title debut.

    Objective facts about Klitschko-Fury

    1. The judges gave championship debut Fury (the B-side, in Germany) 8 or 9 of the 12 rounds

    2. Wlad wasn’t given a single round unanimously to Fury’s four (5, 6, 10, 11)

    3. On a round by round basis, a majority or unanimity of the judges gave Fury 9 rounds to Wlad’s 3

    4. Fury was the only fighter to be deducted a point for rabbit punching (which they both engaged in) despite Wlad blatantly headbutting Fury and turning his back multiple times to avoid being hit

    5. Wlad was limited to an all-time record of fewest landed punches for a champion in a 12 round championship fight (52 of 231, 34 of which were jabs, to Fury’s 86 of 371, 48 of which were power punches) according to Compubox, with Fury outlanding Wlad in 11 of 12 rounds

    6. Reviewers on Eyeonthering gave Fury 10 of the 12 rounds, 8 unanimously or near-unanimously

    7. Reviewers on Boxrec gave Fury 11 of the 12 rounds

    8. It was the only contest where Wlad was outpointed over 12 rounds in 69 pro fights

    World title debut Fury beat master pointfighter Wlad at his own game, dethroned the champion and took his belts on away soil without receiving any real punishment.

    Wlad had never been more motivated when he fought Fury

    1. Before the fight Wlad acknowledged Fury to be dangerous on account of his height, reach, weight, skills, movement, stance switching, unpredictability, confidence and will to win and surely knew that his late coach Emmanuel Steward said that Fury was “the next dominant heavyweight”

    2. Steward stated after the fact that they prepared unusually hard for the *Eddie Chambers* fight due to his speed and co-ordination, as well as the prospective *Chisora* fight due to Chisora’s aggression, mentality and toughness (despite Chambers and Chisora being bigger underdogs than Fury and having far fewer attributes, and wide underdogs having already upset Wlad three times in the past)

    3. Wlad claimed to be training four times a day for Fury rather than his usual three. He was in terrific condition, there wasn't an ounce of fat on him; this wasn't Andy Ruiz with a consistent record of indiscipline but the diametrical opposite

    4. Wlad (perhaps the most obsessively motivated, focused and disciplined heavyweight champion ever) was closing in on the coveted Joe Louis title defence records that he hadn’t already broken and did not want to lose his titles, least of all to Fury

    5. Wlad was fighting in front of 50,000 home fans in Germany and tens or hundreds of millions of viewers worldwide

    6. Fury treated Wlad (who looked down upon Fury) with total disrespect with his clowning and trash talking, as Haye previously did in a less intelligent way and Wlad’s father being on his deathbed didn’t prevent Wlad from producing a stellar performance against Haye, unifying all of the belts for the Klitschko brothers in his 10th consecutive defence

    7. Wlad was devastated when he lost to Fury but almost happy when he lost to “little bro” AJ, even saying months after that he was glad he lost so he could pass the torch

    8. If team Klitschko hadn’t been worried about the serious possibility of losing they wouldn’t have played games with stilts, handwraps, the gloves and scales and tried to rig the canvas to inhibit Fury’s movement

    Fury would have died before living up to his contracted rematch. He stayed out until Wlad retired.

    Fury threw away years of his prime and made up injuries to avoid the rematch.

    Keep crying you grotty troll, Wlad was toyed with and schooled in his backyard. I didn't see him giving Povetkin a rematch, who wasn't beaten inside anything resembling boxing rules.

    Allowing Wilder and Joshua to build up title records in Fury's absence could benefit him down the road: he's already cannibalised Wilder, Usyk's done it to Joshua and now he can do it to Usyk. And Fury has the further feather in his cap of one of the great all time boxing comebacks.

    I do feel he was owed a rematch.
    I wanted to see a more agressive Wlad vs Fury.
    Shame it never happened and its on Fury.

    Im not against the rematch but Wlad wasn't owed one because Fury was mandatory. . Fury was forced against the rules to sign a rematch clause and it had to be on Wlads terms. However thats not the reason the rematch didn't happen. Fury had a mental breakdown
