    You clearly don't have the faintest idea what you're talking about or you're just a troll.

    The fight was always billed and described as a very close fight. It was the reason why both fighters where given so much credit for taking you moron.

    'Tyson Fury is an exaggerated hype job'

    Aren't all 'hype jobs' exaggerated by definition? 'Hype job' would have sufficed...

    Every successful british fighter, even the very best ones, are overrated by virtue of their fans being total zealots. Doesn't mean they are hype, esp in this case bc the powers that be of boxing really haven't done fury many favors, but it does mean you won't be able to have an honest discussion with their fans until they taste some failure

    True! If anything "exaggerated hype job" would insinuate that he wasn't a hype job and thise claims were exaggerated. Well picked up on sir. You just know if this guy put this thread on paper it would be written in crayon

    After Fury decimates AJ

    "Styles make fights, Prime Mike Tyson and Lennox Lewis could beat Fury in a tag team, he's just a hype job"

    Fury is not a home fighter

    Fury fights any men, any time, any place and anywhere.

    Fact remains the Wlad Fury beat would still beat everyone in the division with relative ease barring AJ who he still had in life and death mode. Fury literally breezed through him as a 26 year old, NOT PRIME. Prime Fury weights 260+ pounds, not the feeble 250 pound slim dancer against Wlad.

    Hes cleary a great fighter, but his resume could use a few more top quality wins. I hope for his legacy's sake he gets the AJ fight

    His resume could be a lot better, but for the people in the know they understand that he stands alone - without even trying.

    Imagine if he had a nice stacked manufactured resume like AJ?

    You guys are embarassing biased morons.

    Fury obviously has some skill at heavyweight but his resume is objectively thin. The eye test is quite ridiculous too, your skills are only really valid when its demonstrated against a top quality opponent.

    It's factual that Fury beat a 39 year old Klitschko. Yes Fury was the underdog, yes he ended Klitshckos reign, but he was 39 years old you cretins. At that age, no matter how you spin it, athleticism, speed, timing declines. This is no different from Wlad, stop exaggerating the win Jesus christ. And the win itself was quite pathetic too, anyone who thinks that was a dominant performance or schooling needs to stop regurgitating what Fury spouts. He won more rounds by simply landing scuff punches/jabs, hardly spectacular. He did more showboating that an actual land punches. And then he avoids the rematch.

    His win against Wilder is good but its not spectacular. Wilder has demonstrated time and time again that he only has a punchers chance in many of his fights, and that a fighter with movement will eventually beat him. Furys height/reach coupled with movement aided Fury in beating Wilder. Wilder is just an athletic right hand, no he does not have any ring IQ, just because you can land a right hand does not mean you have ring IQ. Wilders resume pre fury is objectively terrible as well, so anyone hyping Wilder based on knocking out cans is delusional

    So in your opinion does any current heavyweight have a good win?

    Not sure why people take the bait with this guy. He's clearly on the wind up.
