    I haven't seen Fury make 1 of those silly mistakes in a long time in his last 2 fights he looked razor sharp

    Wlad got put down by Purrity ,Willaimson , Brewter and Sanders. He lost all those fight and quit against Williamson.

    Tell what to Wlad:huh

    He weighed in at 210 for the Fury fight, pretty much same weight as Haye when he fought Wlad and beat Valuev. The shot that dropped him was a huge overhand right where he was pretty much off the floor throwing it, probably the hardest shot he could possibly throw. He also stopped Huck who arguably beat Povetkin at heavy so there is scope for comparisons, I don't like doing these though, I trust what I know from following Furys career from the early stages and I don't think his chin is nearly as bad as some make out.

    Steve Cunningham has admitted that he jumped to heavyweight because it was becoming to much of a struggle to make cruiser

    There's not a great deal of difference in cunninghams shots and wlads.wlad has thudding heavy power but not quick whereas Cunningham has speedy catch u unaware punches with pop.same as pac doesn't have the strength of a lot of ww fighters but his punches have greater effect

    He's definitely getting better but 2 fights isn't really enough to suggest he has completely removed these flaws from his game. He still throws the odd wild shot, stills drops his guard, though he's so tall and rangy he can get away with a lot of these things against smaller men. Might be very different against guys as big as Wlad.

    And that's the heaviest Cunningham has ever weighted. He probably came in heavy to deal with such a big opponent we often see smaller men come in heavy when faced against a super heavy. He weighted only 203lbs in the previous fight against Adamek and 208lbs, 206lbs and 205lbs in the fights since Fury.

    It's pretty clear Cunningham is a very small heavy, many fighters from lower divisions cut more than 10lbs to make weight. If Cunningham is coming in at no heavier than 210lbs when fully hydrated there is no reason why he couldn't make cruiser again.

    Every article I've read about the move up in weight never mentioned issues with weight. After the loss to Hernandez when he came in 2.5lbs below the cruiser limit he wasn't sure if he was going to stay at cruiser or move up, it wasn't until he trained with Wlad and the experienced he gained there that he thought moving up was the right choice. He also has stated he was struggling to get good fights at cruiser after losing the title. If he was trying to make fights at cruiser and in two minds in moving up it suggests he could still make weight and with him coming in as alight as 203lbs as a heavy, he can likely still make cruiser.

    Yes he has a good chin, many fighters have gone up and won, it's if you don't get up then you have a bad chin.

    I don't think his chin is that bad. It's average at best and that maybe too kind but Price's chin is awful. Thompson isn't even a big hitter and he had him all over the place whenever he landed cleanly.
