    That guy was 6'3 and 226lbs, the same size as Usyk. Now add another 4 inches and 40lbs and then you've got Fury.

    The point is Tyson has been dealing with bigger guys since his begining, Alderson was 6'4 so you jipped him an inch.

    It's one thing beating a 6'4 226lb bum and another beat a 6'7 260lb champion with elite skills. There is a massive difference in size and skills between Fury and Alderson.

    Fury is obviously selling himself a little short here, but I like the amount of respect he shows the man who got me interested in boxing. Mike was all about full throttle!

    Fury takes Wlad and Wilder's shots but he can't take Tyson's.
    Fury out wrestles/mauls 6'4-6'7 SHWs, but Mike will manhandle him inside with his elbow twisting dirty trick.
    Murican mythology going strong.

    All Fury has to do against Tyson is stay out of range or grapple inside, both of which he is excellent at, for the first half of the fight. Tyson then starts gassing since he's a roided 5'10 frame not designed to carry that weight, his power goes down too, and now Fury can start opening up on him from range. Tyson's movement and head movement will be far slower so Fury will start landing combinations.

    Tyson will either quit in the corner after failing to bully Fury, or get TKO'd.

    Then he'll try to assault someone's underage niece before starring in his own touring stage-show about how to handle life's challenges as a low-IQ piece of garbage semi-domesticated for a few years by some Italian guy.

    3. Fury telling himself to Wallin:
    Wallin: 'You're not that much taller'
    Fury shakes his head, indicating 'no, not really'
    Wallin: 'How tall are you?'
    Fury: '6'7'

    Im going to go with what hes listed as. Wilder is listed as 6'7 and in the faceoff Fury looks to be an inch or 2 taller standing straight up.

    Fury makes easy work of little Mike

    4 rounds and Fury takes full control. Usyk fight will be the same. Midgets cannot beat Tyson Fury

    lol! That guy moves nothing like Fury, however Fury overcommits with his jab which is why he is so open to right hands, Tyson destroyed Golota with counter right hands for that same reason and that`s how he`d beat Fury.
