    What is Tyson Fury doing in the ring that is so exciting? Atleast Price is blasting people out, he fights nothing like Wlad.

    Yeah, Fury's fight with Johnson was edge of your seat stuff. Couldn't take my eyes off it for a second.

    :patsch

    Its hard to gauge how exciting price is, its ok banging out overmatched, ageing or undersized opponents, I need to see him in an actual fight to say if he's exciting or not.

    He can punch so that does go in his favour.

    Fury vs Price "Has to happen in Neutral Ground".

    He has a high work rate and a more varied arsenal of punches than Price, who pretty much just jabs and throws the right cross. Fury also has a flawed defence which leads to him shipping some punches too which adds to his excitement factor.

    Price fights nothing like Wlad? You serious? His style is totally modeled on him.

    Basing his entire career on one fight against a notorious spoiler. Very intelligent. :good

    What fight has ever been in that was truly exciting? Maybe the one with Firtha where he was knocked on his arse in the second round before coming back to win in the third but that's it.

    INSIDE the ring this remains the best thing Fury has ever done.

    I'm deadly serious, since when does Price jab and grab repeatedly? He throws alot more hooks, gets inside alot more often & Wlad is alot more cautious than Price. The only thing they have in common is they are both big men with a huge right hand, i don't know why some people compare them.

    Fury vs Chisora and vs McDermott 1 were also great fights. Fury's been in a few very good scraps. More exciting in the ring than Price? I'm not so sure 'cause at the moment Price is just banging people out early, and power is always exciting, but let's face it, Fury's not wrong when he refers to Price as "stiff". The guy is mostly jab, jab, straight right. Very much a Wladimir type fighter. Fury is much more fluid, has a greater variety of punches, throws more combinations, and has a style which is more pleasing on the eye.

    He's quite similar to the young pre Steward Wlad I reckon.
