    A fantastic win and well deserved but for me Honeyghan/Curry still the greatest win.

    Not the greatest ever. Wlad was shot shy, barely threw a right. If Fury sparked him out early then yes. But Wlad handed Tyson the title so you can't say it's the biggest win ever.

    It was very good; but it was not like beating Ray Robinson on a near hundred fight winning streak, Randy...

    Ha ha, you sound like the hbo commentators, Fury nullified him and didn't allow himto do his normal, boring work. Tyson worked every minute for it

    Tyson did what he had to but Wladimir didn't throw his rights. He made Fury's job easier, that's undeniable.

    Tyson boxing skills have always been under rated, fact is Wlad had trouble with his awkward style, Fury done really well with controlling range and using his faints to offset and keep Wlad off balance.

    You see Wlad uses that right when he has good balance and that moment but Tyson done well by not letting him set his feet, Tyson tied him up well and had good footwork..

    Great win..

    Benn beating McClellan was the best I've seen but Fury deserves all the praise he gets and it was in Germany against a man who has been unbeaten for a decade so it is a great win even though it wasn't a great fight.

    Fury told everybody it would be an easy night and from I watched it was, I'm still in a little bit of shock, I didn't expect Fury to win that easily.

    I thought two of the cards were bad, even with a point deduction I only gave Wladimir the last round.

    Fantastic win for Fury and British boxing.

    Klitschko was way past it. Nevertheless still a great champion and it will go down as one of the greatest in history no doubt.
