The Fury Wlad beat was better. HWs don't get better after 40. How you just described Wlad is exactly how he was against Fury as well. He actually had better stamina against Fury based of how he looked in the 12th.
You want this log logged inside you. It's okay. I'm comfy with men fantasizing about me (it's not like they or the general population can help it). However, if you touch me, I'm KOing you cold.
He was 41 years old. Tremendous shape or not he was still 41 years old. He didn't look like the old Wlad. He looked like an old guy who fought a good fight.
He's coming back all right ... He's coming back, plate in hand, because they just put out some freshly-roasted hedgehogs on the buffet line!!!
It seems like that anytime there's a report of a development about Joshua (this time it's the IBF exception), some Fury comes out nonsensically banging on about how Tyson Fury is going to do this and Tyson Fury is going to do that and nothing ever comes to pass. I bet that he'll be back to 360lbs+ before July is out, if he's not there already.
Good luck to him! I was never a fan to begin with, he comes across as a joke but he's a throwback. A proper fighter and a good guy, speaks the truth and from the heart.
