    Just finished watching fury's latest fight and I agree, he did not look all that great and got hit a few times by being careless. But at 20 yrs old he has plenty of time to improve and has already met fair competition considering the early stages he is in. I do like his handspeed but I don't think he appears to be a big puncher.

    Really? I thought he did great considering he was only boxing for three to four years and was going up against guys who had a lot of experience. That was why it was a long-shot that he would even get a medal; but he did anyway. Wilder has a ton of heart as he is fighting for his daughter, who has spina bifida. The night he fought Clemente Russo, who is a far more experienced fighter, he couldn't score points but if it were in the pros, he would have won on the scorecards with a ten point system.

    How do determine what kind of a chin he has this early anyway?
