    True but Vitali was still unbelievably strong, I think he would have a lot of success shading Fury in the clinches. Watching the Lewis fight it’s clear he (and Lewis himself) we’re two of the strongest heavyweights ever.

    Bingo.

    Fury from the Wlad fight stinks out and wins a clear UD (much as Wlad himself probably would Vs his brother).

    Kronk Fury gets into a war and gets whupped.

    Fury has advantages in reach and mobility while Vitali has significantly more Power, Vitali would do well because he was able to adapt to any opponent. This would be a great fight and Vitali would have a slight advantage because he had those devastating jabs with which he would crush his opponent and regardless of Fury's great head movement, Vitali would be accurate...

    Vitali by KO.

    Fury is vastly overrated. He’s about to lose to a cruiserweight next month.

    Comments like these may just be about to age like fine milk. Fury is a live dog in there with Usyk, I won’t be surprised if he wins.

    This mythical match up on here again once more lol
    Fury and Vitali share one common opponent in Chisora and Fury beat him three times easier than Vital did in his single fight with him,now the triangle theory does not always work out but it’s all we have in this mythical match up. Then there is the Byrd loss which Vitali received very bad press for, compare that to Furys resolve.

    I think both handled Chisora about the same, if we are talking their respective first fights.

    Fury has been down way too many times for me to believe he won't hit the canvas against Vitali, who unlike Wladmir would not be gunshy to let his hands go. Fury also isn't some defensive wizard, he just looks that way in comparison to someone like Wilder who has no fundamentals.

    Vitali would walk him down and eventually crack his chin, probably somewhere around the 7th or 8th round.

    Vitali thought he could walk Sanders down until he got cracked clean on the chin , then fled across the ring. And he never took another forward step after that.
    The Vitali who walks people down and beats them up never existed. He is a figment of your imagination. He beat guys from the mid range and they were all plodders who couldn't move.

    Fury literally toy'd with Chisora in fight 2 and 3. In fight 2 it was so easy he dried up, stopped sweating. Then Peter told him to go and stop it and he did. Chisora was beaten to a pulp by Fury is cruise control

    Chisora had Vitali on the backfoot late in the fight and he was completely exhausted when the bell rang

    Possible, but more likely by stoppage, IMO.

    And that goes for either version of Vitali...the prime version of TKO 6, or the comeback version of Sam Peter.
