I went for the canny bet, a cheeky tenner at 38/1 on Wlad winning by DQ. I think if it is not going well for Tyson then he will foul to get himself out of there,personally I think Tyson has a great chance of pulling off the upset.
True and I will grant you that some of Tyson's dodgy moments in fights could be attributed to being off balance but the knockdowns Tyson has suffered weren't due to being off balance..he was dropped, plain and simple. He recovered quickly both times, but no-one can deny that he is vulnerable, especially now that he is fighting the best heavyweight on the planet, who is far more skillful and hits a lot harder than anyone who he has faced.
It is nowhere near as outlandish a bet as it first appears..and the odds tell you that (most other fighters would be 100/1+ to win via DQ). It may well prove to be an inspired bet indeed!
I 100% agree. Been saying so for a month. If so, pandomonium will break out in and around the ring and spread across the arena.
Agreed!! The Germans really don't seem to have a clue as to how badly it could kick-off!! Del Boy and his posse were like Archangels compared to this lot... there could be utter mayhem!!
The Germans' only hope is that there will be scores of elite police resources in place and on-call due to the terrorist situation. :yep
Tony Weeks is reffing this which means Tyson might be able to fight on the inside. It also means that Wlad is less likely to hug it out.
The closer it gets to fight night the more im convinced wlad stops tyson. He looks nervous, he looks like its a pay day and another deciding factor, he knows win lose or draw he fights Joshua next. The biggest factor for me is Wlad has in his corner, world class coaches, sports science people, trainers, a real professional set up. Tyson has his uncle and loads of yes men, they have no game plan
Anyone who thinks Fury has even a mild chance is letting their heart rule their head. I cannot see how Wlad doesn't stop him. Still, be fun whilst it lasts.
Well Tyson loves fighting dirty as well. Throws low blows and elbows. Could make a lot of money :good
If the referee starts warning Fury or letting Wladimir grab and pull him around they will find out rather quickly who the Fury supporters are in the arena. If they thought Haye and Chisora having a free for all in Germany was a security nightmare then they better bring in the army if they plan to give Fury a hard night.
