    Fury tends to fight to the level of his opponent, he always raises his level when needed.

    Despite the fantastic one punch finish against Whyte, Povetkin looked pretty old and was gassing in there.
    Whyte wins by KO in the rematch

    AP would have a punchers chance vs Tyson. Would be a live dawg till the final bell, but lose on points

    We already saw him fight a fury and it didn't look good

    Fury signed off because he was getting off scott free. The time he served was for cocaine use and mental health issues, and it was retroactively applied to his "PEDS" use because UKAD was admittedly afraid to bring the matter to court.

    He got off scott free. He served no penalty whatsoever, except in name.

    Povetkin was staggering around at the end of the Whyte fight. That uppercut was an effective last ditch effort.
    All it did was expose Whytes chin. Povetikin should retire soon.

    Makes no difference. He still admitted to PED use and thats what his ban was for so officially he is a PED cheat.

    To compare Hughie to Tyson is more laughable. Hughie is level C compared to his cousin who is at A+ right now.

    I disagree. Povetkin dominated Hughie Fury and schooled him. It was a wide UD win for Pov.

    Last ditch effort??? Keen boxing fans knew very well the outcome of the Whyte-Povetkin fight, most experts were guessing Pov would KO Whyte.

    Don't give him much of a chance at all. Fury would have an easy time controlling the distance and cruise to a win.

    Wasn't nearly the type of domination one would expect to see from someone who's going to be competitive with Tyson Fury
