I really hope that a year from now Bridgerweight is a bum in an alley somewhere drinking himself to death while the real divisions ignore him and move ahead.
Fury jabs his nut off and probably KO's him late Apart from Chisora and Whyte, Povetkin is tailor made for Fury.
This fight was called as an eliminator for the WBO belt mandatory position in the past. Fury turned it down. So you see Fury's camp didnt like their chances in this matchup. If I am not mistaken the same happened with the IBF, with Fury turning down Pulev.
Fury didn't like his chances against Povetkin, but he liked his chances against Vladimir, the guy who manhandled and slapped around Povetkin? Very interesting stuff. Once again, Fury haters conclude that everyone Fury didn't fight was directly due to a duck by Fury.
The punch that Sasha hit Whyte with...and the punch that Fury hit Whyte with...and Usyk....that punch. That hits Povetkin all night.
Very hard for Povetkin to get to Fury if Fury fights like he did versus Hammer. But Povetkin did pretty well against tall fighters and was a better puncher than Chisora, Hammer, Usyk and all the shorter HW's Fury fought. I give Povetkin a shot especially if Fury starts exchanging. But if Fury is being tricksy gypsy then probably Fury wins by UD. I remember Fury looking at a photo of him and calling him a midget. I doubt he ducked him.
