    He just looks like he took the fight lightly and wasn't able to adjust too fast when Wallin started to put it on him in the early going. Fury isn't a great adapter like Usyk; he tends to resort to roughhousing when a smaller opponent starts causing him issues. His game is all about getting into your head pre-fight and establishing dominance early.

    If he fought Usyk I'd pick Usyk to figure him out by the mid stages and win a close decision. Might even be earlier than that. Fury's strengths won't play to Usyk's weaknesses.

    He fought Klitschko at a similar weight

    Fury always looks weak as a kitten, an extra stone of fat won't improve his punch power much, he was bigger against wilder and didn't punch any harder.

    Maybe he needs to do a few weights, add a bit more muscle to his frame, he's light for his size but still carrying a spare tyre.

    A bit of tone wouldn't do him any harm.

    Fury hits hard enough when he wants to. He just rarely does due to his style.

    Some of those body shots he was thudding into Wallin weren't feather fisted at all.

    It's not his strong point though, it's probably his biggest weakness. He wears guys down with more thudding shots he's not a knockout artist.

    I don't think he's a weak puncher more an average one but with John fury saying he looked weak as a kitten..well he looked about the same as always which is very average.

    He's not a huge puncher, no. I don't think anyone would claim that. He's not a featherfist either, and when he puts weight on his shots they seem to cause real concussive damage. Trouble is due to his size that throws him off balance and puts him in the firing line, so he really only fights like that if he's getting beaten to the punch or outboxed like he did against Cunningham and now Wallin.

    He'd much rather hang back and pick guys off at range, causing just enough damage to keep them honest without putting any undue danger on himself.

    Need to sack big John Fury first I think. Tyson is a clown. Always has been. Look at his ring entrance and behavior in the dressing room. If you carry on like that against a very determined opponent with very solid fundamentals and a good boxing brain in his corner, well, I find it hard to see how its Davidson's fault he was cut, busted up, and getting outboxed. If anything, Davidson is the only one who is helping him hold his s&*t together and told him to get on the inside and smother Wallin and probably saved him the fight. With Roach or Hatton in his corner, Fury will be back on the sauce and coca-cola in no time.

    Fury looked the same to me except Wallin didn't fold and came to fight.
    His dad is probably pissed this Swedish meatball almost took out his lineal champ in the 12th.

    Classic Deflection. It's not Tyson's fault.
