Would Fury be able to survive Ike's super high work rate? Would Ike be able to close the distance? This content is protected
Not really a fan of HW’s in general and don’t enjoy fury or his style, but I think a Fury decision is the most likely outcome
Prime for Prime I don’t see Fury being able to avoid Ike for 12 rounds. Ike’s work rate was insane for a heavyweight, and he could punch clean, evenly with either hand. He was faster than most HW’s and took clean shots from Tua and never stopped coming forward. Ike in ten by stoppage.
I think Fury's has shown us his best and is on the decline. I no longer thin he's a hungry type of fighter. Lucky for him he gets Wilder next who cant box well. Ike would catch Fury and finish him.
I think Ike is probably overrated on here. However the optimum words already used here is work rate. I don’t think Fury having to work 3 minutes per round would be in his favour, his win over Wlad and draw with Wilder were low output fights. I think Ike’s high output, durability and power would eventually wear Fury down for a late stoppage or UD.
I actually like Ike here. I also agree his workrate wouldsit him in good stead and Fury just doesn't have much power to slow him up.
I'll pick Fury. He did well against Chisora, who was basically a second rate Ike. Byrd was talking rounds off of Ike before he got caught. I think Fury would handle Ike's power better than Byrd and would tire Ike by being strong in clinches.
Is everyone taking the ****? If Fury was American they'd say 'This is a mismatch' and 'Ibeabuchi would get schooled' they just like to take massive shits on British fighters don't they? Realistically Ibebuchi wouldn't get near Fury if he boxed, wouldn't be able to get set like every one else who fought fury, Chisora, Wilder the long reigning Wladimir Klitschko who had looked good in recent fights
