    Fury is a complete moster of:

    Weight.
    Height.
    Reach.
    Power.
    Speed.
    Stamina.
    Skills.
    Smarts.

    The only real challanges I see for Fury besides himself for the upcoming years are:

    Bloodlusted Wladimir Klitschko.

    Perfected Anthony Joshua.

    Perfected Adrian Granat.

    Familiar Hughie Fury.


    Ortiz: Too small.

    Parker: Too small.

    Povetkin: Too small.

    Wilder: Too weak.

    There you have it, the future:

    Tyson Fury
    Anthony Joshua
    Adrian Granat
    Hughie Fury.

    Nothing wrong with ring craft, or the dark arts...

    Fury didn't even "destroy" Wlad in the fight they already fought. Fury won a close decision against a Wlad that did't even let his hands go. A prime Wlad would probably beat Fury. Not sure if by KO because I don't know the quality of Fury's chin.

    A lot of posters in this thread remind me of Fraudley Harrison.

    They're both products of their heights. No one would heard off both guys if they were 6ft 3.

    I don't think any version of Vlad beats Fury. In boxing mental strength, in many cases can give an edge to a boxer. And Fury have that mental edge, would probably have it against almost anybody.

    Wlad, while a very technical guy as the others reiterated didn't have heart. Against the adversity, he has failed many times. His size, technique wouldn't carry him against Fury even when Wlad was at his best.

    Also, i am curious OP. What is the prime Fury? Have we seen it yet? What is your opinion on it?

    Fury was always all wrong for Wlad stylistically.

    Fury on points.

    There was nothing close about that first fight. And we do know the quality of Fury's chin. He got full-on blasted by Wilder for ****'s sake.

    Wlad was making his 18th straight title defense, was 39 and in sharp decline. It was a very flat performance in a total snooze of a fight. Wlad likely wins in a rematch although Fury would pose some problems. Fury wanted no part of the rematch. I think Wlad's age and underestimating his opponent played a role in his loss.

    I am sure there are certain versions of Wlad (2005-2012) that would stop Tyson Fury. For example, the version of Tyson Fury that faced McDemormott and Cunnigham. Versions around that time period.

    I think Tyson Fury was too open to be hit at that point and Wlads power would have caused him to lose via KO.

    But a prime Tyson Fury is always going to cause serious problems for him, and beat him a good number of times.

    I think a prime Tyson Fury with the right conditioning and defence, in his prime is a favourtie to beat Wlad.

    But for a long part of Wlads career he was a monster, and would beat Fury even at his best
