DIllian Whyte says he dropped Fury 'so many times in sparring'

I never understood the people who think Fury is a technical fighter, he is not and he never was.

Fury is an awkward fighter who is a nightmare for conventional more technical fighters because he disrupts
their rhythm.

That's also the reason why i think Wilder won't have a problem with him because he is not conventional and he is
himself a very awkward fighter.

Parker has better punch selection, better punching technique, a better snapping double jab, also Parker rolls better with punches and has better head movement, Parker can fight on the inside and on the outside, he is just a more fundamentally sound fighter than Tyson Fury.

 

Did anyone see that black eye Dave Allen gave Fury in sparring?


Sparring is pretty irrelevant in the scheme of things......

Price knocked down Joshua.
Klit did the same to Wilder and Haye also put a beating on Wilder.

 

Parker has just as many flaws as Fury.


Parker for a start has a horrific gas tank.

The legitimate knockdown against Whyte from the hook actually saved him from getting KO'd imo.
After this, Whyte stopped going to the body and allowed Parker back into the fight.

 

100%, Parker is legit with the skills, and he's so young that if he chooses too, he can become even greater. He move's well for a heavyweight.

Fury is treated like a boxing guru, and it's doing my head in. He's just really tall, and really rangy and lots of luck.

As you say, when Fury meets Wilder it will be battle of the awkward, unpredictable preying mantis. Taste of his own medicine.

 

Sorry I did not understand your comment clearly, but where is this talk about Parkers gas tank? He throws a lot of volume for a 240 pound man, what else do you want? You don't want him to be tired for 12 rounds?

Please justify your comments with evidence "Parker for a start has a horrific gas tank." "has just as many flaws as Fury."

 

I'll reply later in detail.

 

Parker is an underachiever at the moment, it's mainly problems with his mentality, he is a top 10 heavyweight
right now but he could be more, he makes fights closer than they have to be and he fights to the level of his
opponents.

 

I fully agree, Parker's main weakness is himself lol. It's he's mental attitude - he has the skills and the ability but just needs to get his head in the game a bit more. He could be achieving alot more than what he has so far, and that's a compliment to his potential!

He should maybe work a bit more on his power as well, I think an extra 15% power or something behind his shots would help. Some strength and conditioning or explosive training, he's already got everything else.

 

Aydamn - Registered 31st July 2018 three days after your big win over Joseph Parker, congrats Dilly.

 

I think he already has good enough power, he just needs to be more aggressive and offensive minded, the problem with him is also that he doesn't really have a ring iq, sometimes i have the feeling that he doesn't even know what
to do and he never really has a gameplan, he is just repeating the same patterns over and over again which makes
him very predictable and easy to prepare for.

 

Yes, I understand you, Bro. And I truly get it. But he still lost, to a journeyman, and it seemed pretty obvious.

Why did Wilder fight bums coming up? Because he couldn't fight, and it would have been a bad business decision. It seems they made the right decision.

 

Wilder knows what happened in Sparring.

When they met in Belfast, Wilder asked Haye if he was finished and Haye even joked with him saying "All my best rounds were behind closed doors".

 

There's really no need to be defensive here buddy.

Haye is a good CW, that became an ordinary HW.

Haye/Fury/Wilder have all pulled out of fights that were signed.....and fights that were being prepared in the background......
But I don't think Haye/Fury would've feared Parker to the extent that Wilder's team did.
