    The real question is, how long are Tyson Fury and his fans going to dine out on the Klitschko win?

    Of course not lol.

    Joshua despite his flaws has fought 4 of the current top 10 HW.

    Fury has fought one & was excellent. But it is one performance 2.5 years ago now. Needs to get back & show what he is about.

    A hater calling somebody else a hater?? Do you have any idea how unbelievably pathetic that is?

    Other than Vlad being the victim of prison **** at the hands of Purrity, Sanders and Brewster he was dominat and highly favored to beat Fury. At the time of Vlad’s befuddlement and humiliation by Tyson, Fury was known only for damn near knocking himself out with an uppercut and being dropped by a cruiserweight. And yet Fury went out and lived up to both his first and last names by reducing the most dominat heavyweight champ since Joe Louis to that of a prepubescent girl.
    Tyson Fury >>>>>> Vladimir Klitschko FTW!!!

    May I make a suggestion rather than looking at statistics, how about watching the fight again, it's on YouTube. and using one's own knowledge and skill to determine how well each fighter did.

    I like Fury and clearly he is the most naturally skilled of the current HW bunch but c'mon other than his Wlad performance he doesn't even have a top 10 win ! (maybe Chisora was fringe top 10, just). People say Joshua is hyped (which is true) but the hype around Fury seems to grow each month he doesn't fight. Fury has a lot to do on his return to match the ever growing hype.

    No. Looking back at fights on youtube I can't see him as one of the most talented HWs. Lots of movement and great angled punches definitely. Good footwork for a big bloke too, but lack of a really strong jab or genuine power means he laboured against decent fighters like Chisora. Joshua gets the glass jaw thing all the time but when hit flush, even by a much smaller man in Pajkic, Tyson goes down too easy. I don't see him regaining his top level, especially with wild boar chops off the menu, or coming back and wiping the floor with Wilder, Joshua etc. He'll be remembered as a British lineal champ, and a divisive character, but not as one of the most talented HWs.

    Fury is the most talented fighter out there today, at heavyweight...............except Usyk who is only 6 feet 3 inches tall, but is quick and experienced.............

    Danny Williams > Tyson Fury for beating 38 year old Mike Tyson more decisively

    Blown up middleweight James Toney > Tyson Fury for beating 39 year old Evander Holyfield more decisively!

    Leon Spinks > Tyson Fury for beating 40 year old Muhammad Ali more decisively and having the guts to give Ali a rematch later on unlike Fury, who ducked a rematch against Wladimir Klitschko.

    Tyson, Holy and Ali were all ancient when they lost to the guys you reference. They had been in wars and it caught up with them. Vlad was still prime and heavily favored to beat the Gypsy King. And if there’s any one thing that you can’t accuse Vlad of, it’s having been in wars. Vlad was dominant up until when Tyson Fury pimp slapped him in the one of the greatest upsets in sports history. Fury took Vlad’s soul. In fact, the next time we’d see Vlad in another fight he was brutally stopped (by another he was supposed to beat), bringing his career full circle from his Purrity, Sanders and Brewster days. Tyson >>>>>Vlad.

    He has insane talent, and he has one great win on his record.

    But there are lots of talented fighters out there. You are nothing without dedication, discipline and hard work to make the most of your talent. Tyson Fury is lacking in those areas.

    I remember before the Klitscko fight he was a bum that uppercuts himself waiting for some powder puff to knock him out. He has an incredibly boring fight with the cheating master of boring fights and suddenly he is an atg. He then goes on with all the fiascos he's that everyone knows about and never fights again. I've never seen someone more over rated in all my life.
