    FACT. Fury is incredibly skilled for a 6'9 HW when his head is screwed on correctly. IDc how anyone can deny it. Fury is the man. :deal

    The fact Chisora can be called a top 15 heavyweight is depressing... Realistically, you'd struggle to call him a boxer without bursting into laughter after that fight.

    Fury did do well, though. Hope he gets the Wlad fight he deserves.

    I said it: I was impressed with Fury. I expected him to goof around and do silly non-sense. But he kept his cool, even through the boos. That's what a professional does.

    I don't recall Chisora landing a single meaningful shot.

    I can find a worse top 15 in ANY era. Prove me wrong.

    Chisora is completely normal gatekeeper level opponent, you will find these guys in every era. Nothing about Chisora is exceptionally bad compared to gatekeepers from other eras.

    It was a very impressive performance from Tyson Fury tonight. He completely dominated, winning every minute of every round.

    Fury has no power and a Glass Jaw that is a disaster against Wlad.

    Fury looked good tonight. He isn't beating Wlad but looked like he could pose a problem for most other heavies in the division.

    He wasn't putting anything into his shots tonight, Einstein... How does that constitute as "not having power" ??????? :think

    Maybe so, although I think you're underrating his power. He stands no chance against Wlad at the moment.

    There's no doubt about that anymore. Fury is a 6'9 man who can box from orthadox or southpaw, inside or outside, headshots or bodyshots, heart to get off the canvas, and power to ko opponents when he wants to be aggressive.

    He is legit.

    Fury definitely is a legit contender. He earned his shot not only with his disciplined performance tonight, but also keeping his head screwed on after Haye pulled out twice and Chisora once on him. He proved he has a professional mindset.

    Styles make fights. You can look great against one opponent but then look terrible against another.
