Yeah but basketball palyers are skinny compared to him. If he'd have the same body fat percentage, he could move way faster. And still, he looks like superman compared to Valuev, that was only an inch taller than him, even though he was heavyer.
Wow, hard to watch. Difficult to believe that two of these guys are young, professional athletes in their prime.
and rugby players... cmon man this guy is just non-athletic I don't care how tall he is. Look at a South African rugby player called Eben Etzebeth for example to see what a real athletic 2m+ guy can do in terms of athletic performance (over 80mins if needed). now look at fury. now get your head screwed on straight.
Incredible. I would have never tought one day i'd heard something making sense coming from the likes of derrick. And this time, not only he did that, but he even created an original, interesting and plausible theory about the reasons behind the release of an objectively useless video of the begin of a training camp. In fact, it's true that after having seen those footage, a lot of peoples will be less scared to enter a ring with fury. But, for interesting that theory is, i still think the main reason is that 1- they don't give a f--k about what peoples think 2- this shows the rude, sweated and old stlye kind of training, as opposed at the ultra-tech of some Haye and Wladimir training sessions.
Rugby players are a different kind of ting, it's true. They are often heavyweight sized and heavyweight weighting, and yet they sprint around all the time. Effectively, there is no excuse in that comparison. But i still think we shoul care more about the end of the training camp. After all, he has been inactive for a lot of months, and he comes from a country in which Christmas is a very important festivity. Last but not least, lets consider fights with Kevin Johnson and others. He showed an impressive stamina. So it's reasonable he'll get back to a good stamina in the span of a few weeks.
Basketball players are more muscular than fury, probably weigh the same and still move far better than him. He's just not a natural athlete, look at his footwork, he's really uncoordinated.
Just never saw much in Fury. His size is his only advantage. He doesn't do anything great. That chin to me is awfully suspect.

Well, it's not really about being in your prime or not - it's the lack of coordination in their movements, the ungainliness and the lack of conditioning on display. Unless this is coming at the end of an hour-long conditioning session and they were already exhausted when they started, it's just hard to look at a 25 year old pro athlete being that out of shape.
Well, I'm sure they look better at the end of their training camps...there's a lot of room for improvement obviously.
