    Sure Fury was floored by featherfisted Cunningham, but he got up and seemed to be OK. I think he's a bit more durable than people think.

    well, let's see :think

    he was floored by 27% and 38% KO ratio Pajkic and Cunningham, he was also on ***** street vs 25% KO ratio Firtha and doing a bad chicken flap vs feather-fisted Chisora

    judges, you decide, maybe he just has a knack of getting put on ***** street by light-hitting fighters

    I don't agree with this at all.

    No one in the HW division is feather fisted.

    When fury has been put down, he has been hit bang on the button with near perfect shots.

    And as a result he has got up pretty much instantly, cleared his head, and recovered pretty dam quickly.

    I am sorry but he does not have a bad chin. It would be considered even better, he just keeps getting hit right on the button.

    In some respects he is similar to Marquez in the chin department.

    If you are telling me Marquez has a bad chin simply because he gets dropped, then go for it

    27%, 25%, and 38% would be featherfisted for ANY weightclass, let alone the heavyweight division.

    Marquez and Fury should not be mentioned in the same sentence :lol:

    Dinamita is a warrior, Fury is a clown, also Marquez has been dropped by great fighters who can pack a decent, like Pac, Katsidis or Barrera, while Fury... yeah, we all know :yep

    One of the worst in boxing. James Kirkland will be rolling over in his grave.

    Fury has a Glass Jaw. If he thought Cunningham hit him hard wait until he fights a top 10 Heavyweight. It will be Shattered Glass.

    :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:

    OMG! Some of you deniers are just delusional. The facts have been placed before you. Fury has repeatedly been decked or wobbled by light-hitting HWs - and in the case of Cunningham, a light-hitting CRUISERWEIGHT! :patsch

    How many times does this guy's shaky chin have get cracked before you fanboys will admit that, yes, he has a glass jaw????

    When this china chin that Fury's packing gets brutally shattered, I'm gonna laugh my ass off.:yep:lol:

    Evidence up to this point seems damning. But in his defense, he does seem to recover quickly.

    He will need to when Haye cracks him...

    Fury is certainly chinny. the thing about Fury though is that he is able to gain his composure back pretty quickly after getting dropped, and so far he's been able to rally every single time and get the win. He's grown in leaps and bounds over the last 2-3 years, and I think he will only get better. if he keeps improving and decides to box rather than brawl I think he will be able to protect his chin and develop into a world class HW.

    At least Fury isn't fighting bums like Wilder and others, his stepping in with live opponents every time and he just signed to fight with Haye. We need more of that in the HW division.

    He is improving but Haye is a puncher and he has a bad chin. That's a recipe for a KO most of the time.

    Iron chin!!!! Fury hit himself with one of the greatest uppercuts of all time and he wasn't even wobbled by it ROTFLMAO

    Haye is also a chicken. see if his fights with Wlad and Valuev? He'll likely run scared for most of the fight only looking to counter. If Fury doesn't make any bad mistakes I could easily see him cruising to a UD win over Haye.

    See that's the confusing thing he was running against those guys but utterly destroyed G-zora. He also managed to hurt Valuev and made him do a mini-chicken dance( ok I admit the only part of the fight I've ever seen). The thing is Valuev was a giant and probably a slight favorite against Haye. Wlad is Wlad he is somewhat of an ATG HW. I don't think that Haye will be that scared of Fury though. Plus the discrepancy in experience is pretty serious. I don't have any emotional involvement with this match up so I will just sit down and enjoy the show. The fight is good for the sport!
