Fury shows a huge gap skill when he fights common opponents that others fought.

The real beauty of Fury is how he is so disarming

Little bald head, cute smile and soft skin with a cheeky wit.

Then they square off in the ring and everyone thinks "Jesus christ" he's making a 6'4" 250 pound brickhouse look small and weak and then he begins to ragdoll them at will.

Haye is lucky he didn't fight him. Even after Wlad people still underestimated Fury.

But really physically and sex appeal aside boxing is always about skill & fundamentally it's always about footwork. Fury is impossible to hit if he wants to avoid it.

There are always people who are pray on that single punch chance but guess what? If you put Fury down then suddenly he is going to get on top of you and get revenge. He won't play tip tap boxing, he'll go to war and he will win because he cannot be stopped. History has shown if you put Tyson Fury down he will come after you and he will bleed you dry...and when you've just blown your entire load and had an adrenaline rush thinking you can stop him and then he's on top of you 270 pounds guess what good luck breathing.

 

Povetkin and Wlad were well past prime.

 

The big Goof.

 

When Fury fought Wlad or when Joshua fought Wlad 2 years later?

 

Povetkin was 41, important thing to mention. Also none of these guys have lost to somebody as bad as McDermot.

 

Chisora gave Fury a competitive fight in their 1st encounter, in their 2nd fight Chisora looked uninterested to me and it was lackluster performance from him. Now i'm not saying Fury obviously didn't improve in 3 years since their 1st fight, but i don't know to me Chisora looked bad in the 2nd fight and it wasn't all Fury just my opinion.

 

To be fair, it's much harder for Usyk and Povetkin to deal with these opponents because they are around the same size. Povetkin was also almost on his deathbed.

When Fury uses the massive reach advantage along with his movement, it's very hard for smaller fighters to get to him. During the Chisora II fight Chambers described from experience how hard it was to land on Fury when he fights like that.

But as the fighters get closer to his size, it's harder for him to pull that off unless they're slow. So AJ and Wilder are still pretty dangerous.

 

Chisora didn't gave any trouble to Usyk. He was competitive in the first 2 rounds, and won them, and lost every single round after that. 10-2 best case scenario for Chisora. Scorecards as usual in UK was b.c.
Klitschko lost by 3 points. It was 8-4 fight, with 1 point deduction, aka 7-4, mainly not because Fury dominated, but Wlad wasn't there and threw nothing.
He threw around 200 punches. And Fury won most of the rounds by just throwing/landed a few more punches, which most of them was just arm punches
Klitschko was ready for a war against AJ, and mentally was on other place. Bar he was 2 years older, thanks to Fury, who ducked him in the rematch and waste 18 months of Wlad career.

Whyte did stun AJ with huge left hooks, that KO Chisora and many other opponents, but AJ didn't even go down. And that was Whyte with no loses on his record, as well as very young and inexperience AJ. AJ still brutalize him and KO him brutally and take all of his durability and chin with that fight.
Bar 1 round, it was a slaughter.
Povetkin was not just old, he was ancient, bar 2-3 time COVID and hospitalized twice, and lost all of his functional mass, which was confirmed, then gained mainly fat and couldn't stand on his feet to climb a f**** 3 steps on the weight in.

Klitschko from Haye match, really ? Klitschko was not just prime there, he was with Manny Steward.

Even against Wilder, Fury needed to dig very deep.

Let's see how he will done against AJ, having all the advantages he could have stack, and then talk how he is level above or so.

 

I firmly believe to this day that Haye cacked his pants after being humiliated in the televised face off thing and deliberately cut himself to avoid being humiliated again in the ring by Fury
