    Might take Jeffries by workrate UD here, I'd be more confident picking him over 20 rounds though

    The longer it goes, the more definite Jefferies victory.

    15 rounds is perfect for this debate.

    Neither are the easiest to rate, and both fought under very different conditions, so hard to pick.

    I'd go for Jeffries by a late KO while down on points.

    Fury would give him hell with a massive reach advantage, and footspeed was an issue for Jeffries, but I think Fury would have a very hard time tying up Jeffries, and going past 12 is unknown territory for Fury, while Jeffries had experience upping the pace past round 20, which I think is a big mental edge, even if Fury is ok doing the distance. Body punchers probably are also the way to go with Fury which Jeffries would ram in.

    This is arguably the hardest possible hypothetical match up, to get your head around!

    I can see Fury frustrating the hell out of Jeffries to the point where he fouls out or even does a Duran and says no mas except he would probably say it in English with a few swear words thrown in.

    if it was fought under Jeffries time set Fury might well be booed into engaging .

    Nah, I can’t see Jeffries booing him will have any effect on Fury. I can see him just laughing it off.

    Fury wide over 12. Not sure how he fares 13-15 but I think his lead would be comfortable enough to sustain. Fury UD
