    Many people showing they've only seen Fury fight once, ie tonight by assuming he hasn't got power. It was perfectly obvious that Fury wasn't putting everything into his shots tonight, he didn't get out of first gear, he was putting rounds in the bank after an inactive period yet still bust up Chisora ' s face pretty bad.

    Fury has power, no doubt about it and he can hurt anyone in the division. Great performance tonight, anyone saying different has an agenda. Chisora was in the shape of his life yet Fury won every second of every round.

    He definitely has power and is probably the 3rd or 4th best fighter in the division.

    Sorry guys, he has little snap in his punches. He landed something like 300 punches on Chisora and not ONCE did I see Chisora's head snap back. Fury pushes out arm punches mostly and there's nothing behind them.

    I am not blaming him, he didn't need to take big risks and he doesn't have to commit to his punches tonight, he fought a smart fight. But to argue Fury has above average power is delusional IMO.

    He doesn't have one great one punch power, it's not something he can really rely on if need be. He either has use accumulation of punches, land a near perfect shot right on the button or be against someone with a weak jaw. He really doesn't hit hard for a man of his size. I would say he has average power for a HW despite being one of the biggest guys in the division.

    Arm punches or not, he's still getting KO'd when he fights Wlad.

    He's clearly not a huge puncher but its respectable. You'd expect a bit more power from a guy so big though.

    Valuev 2.0 took 10 rounds to get rid of a heavily deteriorated Chisora....Haye did it quicker and against a better version.
