    Wlad lands some shots on Pulev body, so why not. But he will KO fury in the face for sure.

    Yes, he punches tall opponents in the body upon occasion and that puts Fury in the crosshairs for that. He especially did that before he adapted the Lennox Lewis style, which he seems to be getting away from. I won't be surprised if Fury ends up with some tendered ribs and a fried gizzard.

    I don't want to see Tyson Fury get dismantled by Klitschko too soon because I want him to stay relevant so he can keep making me laugh

    I wonder how soon WBO would set a purse bid date if the 2 parties can't come to agreement on their own.

    I see Fury as Wlad's next fight after Jennings assuming he wins. I would like for Wlad to Unify but it seems like King and Haymon have other ideas and are just too difficult to work with. I hope I am wrong on that and maybe cable and tv providers force their hand to make the match. It would be good for the sport. Really the only piece missing from Wlad's legacy.

    fight won't be until this summer. Both fighters have opponents before then. The WBO gives the super champion 18 months between defenses. it wouldn't actually be due until the end of the year. You are getting way ahead of yourself. I suspect we will see the fight in late August.

    This seems to be his new craze going on about how Wlad's jab is "****" because he never used it much against Pulev ( didn't need to). What i take interest in over this clown is the guys who have been in with his saying how good his jab was and how they couldn't get past it. Brewster in particular said that Wlad made a huge improvement to his jab in the 3 years between bouts, Byrd too.

    I felt the same way until he stopped being funny and became obnoxious. That conference where he couldn't stop cursing made him unbearable. I mean he has kids himself, he should know he has to be a better role model for them. I hope Klitschko smashes him soon because he needs to be humbled.

    Bernd Boente not impressed with Tyson Fury’s win over Hammer

    “I saw the fight [Fury vs. Hammer]. Fury did not impress me against a second or third level opponent,” Boente said via RingTV.com.

    Fury is going to need to find some power if he wants to be able to compete against Wladimir this year or in the future. The pawing jabs and the slow, weak-looking right hands and left hooks he threw aren’t going to keep Wladimir off of him for a second.

    Wladimir has a fight next month against unbeaten #2 WBA, #4 WBO, #6 IBF American Bryant Jennings (19-0, 10 KOs) on April 25th at Madison Square Garden in New York.
    “I want Klitschko next,” Fury said after his mismatch against Hammer last Saturday night.

    Fury will get his title shot against Wladimir at some point, but I don’t think he’s going to be pleased with the results. That’s just a bad, bad match-up for Fury. I see him as a copy of Tony Thompson in terms of speed, punching power and fighting style.

    There’s nothing in Fury’s game that can make it a competitive fight. Fury is good at beating the Martin Rogans, Christian Hammers and Dereck Chisora’s of the heavyweight division, but I don’t see him being able to beat a good heavyweight.

    If you put Fury in with the likes of Alexander Povetkin, Carlos Takam, Lucas Browne, Kubrat Pulev, and Mike Perez, I see Fury losing to all of those guys. Of course, Deontay Wilder and Wladimir are at the top of the heavyweight division, and no way do I see Fury as having the ability to compete with either of those two.

    Wladimir will have little problem getting past Jennings next month. That’s a mismatch. After that, it’s up to Wladimir and his manager Boente to see whether they want to fight Fury next or make him wait until 2016 for his title shot.

    There’s still some decent guys that Wladimir can take for a voluntary defense. With a victory over Jennings, Wladimir will have had two tough opponents back to back in Jennings and Pulev. I could see Wladimir asking the World Boxing Organization to grant him an optional defense before he takes the Fury fight. If Wladimir chooses to go that route, you can’t really blame him, because he rates a soft defense after these two tough fights.

    As for Fury, he could take another tune-up fight or two while he waits for Wladimir.
