    After fury beats wlad this is the fight I rather see. Wlad won't take the rematch I am sure and call it a day.. Fury can fight onside long range and box circles around wlad. Personally I would want him to go for the stoppage but wlad will try to hang out to save himself to final bell.

    ummmmm,

    you do realise of all of Wlad's title defences only David Haye had shorter odds to beat Klitschko.

    I assume you also realise that Klitschko during his entire heavyweight reign has not faced an heavyweight with a KO% as high as Fury's. [Haye had a marginally higher rate but it was almost exlusively at CW].

    Add to the fact Fury is 12 years younger, a couple of inches taller, with a much longer reach etc etc.

    Anyone who thinks this is going to be like when Wlad went 5 rounds with tubby 5'11 New Zealand truck driver Alex Leapai last year would be advised to revise their opinion ahead of this fight :good

    Fury would get starched cold by Povetkin, first fighter a head shorter than Fury he'd lose to

    Wlad has fought plenty of big dudes during his dominance.....has not mattered. Fury is a solid HW but he is going to get sparked...badly.

    Let's put the shoe on the other foot for a minute...

    Fury has NEVER faced a SINGLE fighter that is a FRACTION as decent as Wlad.

    Who has his prep been? A blown-up Cunningham (who still dropped him)? Kevin Johnson? Chisora?

    The man avoided Price like the plague, ducked a fighter that actually came ready and in shape, and has had the worst prep possible for a fighter of Wlad's caliber.

    He tried to get ANOTHER Cruiser in Haye into the ring 2-3 times. He will not go near a legit HW.

    Believe me, Fury is out of his league. He's cashing out early.

    He mauled an overmatched fat middleweight in 5 rounds.

    The last guy Wlad stopped quicker than 4 rounds was NINE years ago :good

    The notion that he will stop his best opponent in a decade quicker than he did a fat, 5'11 fork lift truck driver from New Zealand is:

    puerile

    You don't know how dumb you look when Wlad KO's Fury and makes it look easy.

    Maybe, but Wlad has been feasting on top-10 guys and ruining their pretty 0s in recent years.... quite a different diet to Fury's. Imagine feeding Fury's previous opponents to Klitschko, hahaha.

    If Fury beats Wlad, he can go fighting complete bums for a full year just like Wilder does until he has to fight a mando so he can hold the belt hostage and enjoy it throughout 2016.
