Can we please finally give Fury the credit he deserves?

    I really did not think Fury could do it. I knew he were good but i thought he was too undiscaplined to pull off some master plan which they claimed to have. I also didnt believe they had a master plan. Everything they were saying proved to be right. Everything they think they saw in Wlad over his dominant decade, every bad habit to every dirty trick was seen and taken in.

    From a complete neutrals point of view it was a damn awful fight, it really was but im sure Fury fans remeber it being one of the best fights ever, watching it live it was exciting, watching the replay was painful. team Fury had a plan and they executed it perfectly. All the credit in the world for that.

    Here's the deal Hattonmad. No matter what Tyson does he's gonna get ridiculed and harassed just because they don't like what he stands for. Many of these idiots are millennial Social Justice Warrior's with no balls. Tyson Fury is not pc and those sissies can't stand it.

    For example Tyson Fury was thrown under the bus for making one joke about women in the kitchen. Chisora and Wilder beat the hell out of women but they get no publicity at all from the media about it! And the media likes to act what Tyson said was one of the worst things that ever happend. So you can see the bias and double standard right there.


    Anyone not giving Tyson Fury listen to this.

    I didn't find it boring at all. Watching an ATG getting completely immobilised was a thing of beauty for me. Something we never seen anyone come close to doing to Wlad. I appreciated the skills of Fury throughout. Watching a man that size move like that is incredible, again it's never been seen before.

    I haven't seen one person say Wlad won. Many rounds were decided by 2-3 landed punches. That isn't a masterclass. It was a pitiful embarrassing fight.

    Fury put on a snoozefest and won a boring fight. Fury damaged our sport. AJ's war with Wlad inspired millions of boxing fans worldwide.

    Fury fought a brilliant fight against an ATG. Tactics and execution were spot on. So he does deserve massive credit for that performance. But it was just performance and if he wants to be seen to be as good as he clearly thinks he is he needs to build upon that and fight the likes of AJ, Parker and Wilder. I hope he comes back at his best - but am doubtful that will happen.

    It was embarrassing for Wladimir alright, being made look so average because of Fury's elite movement. But to make an ATG look that bad and beat him wide is exceptional. So tragic that people belittle the achievement, strange world we live in.

    So you want to give AJ more credit than Tyson for getting the crap beat out of him by Wladimir? Yes that's very logical, good man. Lets belittle Fury for beating WK much easier than AJ did. Can you people actually hear yourselves? Your ignorance is embarrassing. So what if AJ got off the floor to win? Getting put down was a mistake on his part and boxers get up off the floor all the time. Fury has done it many times before he became an elusive genius. Or was AJ V WK the first boxing match you ever watched?

    As I recall, Fury got full credit for beating Wlad when he did it.

    That doesn't make him immune from criticism for everything that happened since (massive weight gain, failed drug tests, stupid comments, lies about upcoming return dates, etc.) and everything that didn't (like not fighting again since).

    And nothing is more trollish and annoying than a "Here's my opinion and everyone who disagrees with me is in idiot" thread. Quite frankly, only an idiot thinks that way.

    Why do people act like what Fury did to Wlad was just this showcase of master class schooling. It wasn't. It was an ugly fight. Fury wasn't hardly doing **** and Wlad barely threw punches. A master class is Floyd vs JMM or a Canelo. What Fury did was win something he himself couldn't even believe. He let the euphoria effect him so much he retired from the sport. The rest is history. He was suicidal, he has a drug problem, gtfoh.

    He gets more than he deserves lmao

    Another thing people need to understand is styles make fights. Just because he was able to scrape/bull**** a win out of Wlad doesn't mean he gets by AJ or Parker or anyone else for that matter.

    He quit when the spotlight was its brightest. That tells you all you need to know about this flavor of the month trying to get 5 more minutes of fame. True greats stand the test of time. I'm not impressed with guys who barely been known for 5 years or less. This guy already folded like a lawn chair.

    Is Tyson Fury in the top 5 for those who hold the shortest reign as undisputed HW champion?

    Fury was ( past tense ) a rare blend of dominant size combined with unorthodox speed, movement and countering skills for a man his size

    Very effective combination; Wlad was totally lost on how to deal with a man of Fury's size, movement and countering skills

    You have to give credit where it was due

    If Fury would get into tip top shape he would beat Joshua, but will he be willing to train?

    A large part of his gameplan was OUTSIDE the ring. The press conferences, the protesting of the ring padding, gloves and whatever other nonsense Wlad was used to having his way with. I think it definitely shook Wlad up, as much as anything in the ring did.

    Joshua life and death with an older version of klit.

    Fury away from home schooled him. Enough said.
