    He's not as skilled or as talented as is being made out. He beat someone who's been feeding on smaller/talentless bums for a decade because of his size and reach which nullified the one dimensional Klit. It was basically one younger man out-jabbing the slower, older man. Someone who actually throws something other than a jab and can dig a bit will get Fury out of there imo. Joshua and Haye (if he still has it) will both knock him out and I am going on record on that.

    Even Wilder has a chance if that fraud doesn't get touched on the chin first.

    I loved to see that too. It would be happier than this if that fraud retired.

    That's the same thing people said about Ali when he was beat by Berbick.

    Haye is a chinny crusier with a shattered arm. Fury will murder him.

    I don't care how low your skills are ( and I don't think Furys are ! ) If you're fighting a guy that size , with that reach and who fights that awkwardly. Its a tough night for anyone.

    If Haye can catch him on the button , then of course he could do damage but I don't know what David has left.

    Joshua in 12 months time , yeah that's a fight.

    But Furys awkwardness and size are not easily figured out.

    It's to early for Joshua. We don't know enough about him yet.

    Haye could struggle. He has been out of the ring for ages and is a guy who relies on athleticism and explosiveness which surely won't be the same due to the lay of and age. Also, Haye doesn't jab, not against huge guys.

    Haye could face similar problems that he did when he fought Wlad. He doesn't use his feet to close the distance. He leaps in with his shots, like Pascal does. Against a guy who fighting at range and can back up quick or spin off to the side, Haye could find himself swinging at air again.

    I actually like Tyson, both inside and outside the ring. He's galvanized the division and he's been able to back up his trash talking which I commend.

    I'm not that impressed with his skillset either and also agree there might be a few HW's that could have their way with him.

    But who knows, Tyson is undefeated and just pulled off one of the biggest upsets in the last decade. Having that level of confidence in a fighter is invaluable and it might make him work harder in the gym now to ensure he can remain HW champ for some time.

    He's obviously a lot more skilled and talented that he appears, that's all I know.

    I'm not sure what Joshua has done to even rate him as anything yet.
    I'd pick Fury to beat Haye.

    Ironically what has made Wlad so successfull in all these years turned out to be his downfall vs Fury. Pre steward Wlad would have trashed Fury within a few rounds.

    Fair post mate. Fury has become the most overrated boxer on this forum.

    Ali has names on his resume and has beaten guys who were both younger and bigger than him.

    Exactly WHO has Wlad beaten?

    Based on what? That was pre-prime Klitschko. How does the Wlad who got eaten alive by a shot to bits 90's era left over beat Fury?
