    David Price was much bigger than Povetkin, but got knocked out.

    I have met Fury, he is 6'7, maybe a tad over
    Not 6'8 and certainly not 6'9

    He has obviously been measured in trainers and was close to 6'9 and kept the gimmick

    Nah Wilder looks smaller on thoose picture. And Wilder is almost same size as Fury. You must really focus to find difference in height for Fury.
    And Wilder is 201 cm soo for me is obvious that Fury is 202/202,5/203 cm height.
    Not 206. He probably never look 206 cm on any photo I remeber but often with boxer/people who is near to 200 or more he dont look much higher (even near to Mariusz Wach or David Price)

    Efe Ajagba is same size as Wład Klitschko (198) soo its normal that there is difference beetwen this 2. Same was vs Klitschko.

    I'd agree he's about 6'7 6'8 but his size isn't just his height as you'll know he's really broad and long armed.

    He's like a fat gorilla with long legs.

    6'7-6'7.5 sounds about right, yes.

    Wasn't the same Vs Haye, he looked confident and was doing it to annoy Haye, here he looked really insecure and anxious, you could see it on his face, even when he was flexing and trying to "have some fun" he looked like he wasn't mentally there

    Price had a glass jaw. Fury took Wilder's hardest punch and stood up. Usyk is not a puncher.

    Fury has been there before and he knows how Usyk feels about everything. Usyk is a true sportsman, he would be one of the best choices to be the ambassador of this sport. He takes everything from preperation, stare downs and the fight very serious. Fury took advantage of that, ignored him and made him look vulnerable. Because he's a showman, we see Fury doing these things and we don't care or read too much into it.

    But seeing Usyk not backing off, still looking at hime like that from the side was not in the manner of a true sportsman but somehow who is too emotional. Fury exposed that and I expect tomorrow he might be serious because it's the last time before the fight.

    Im not sure Fury refusing to look Usyk in the eye made Usyk look vulnerable. Quite the opposite.

    Fury looked very uncomfortable in trying to look comfortable. Usyk looked like he always does.

    I have a gut feeling this will be an ugly, boring decision fight.

    This is perhaps the least confident I have ever seen Fury before a big fight. It tells me deep down he knows he has his handsful against a world class opponent
