Unfortunately I don't think that Fury exists anymore. So, I'm going with Fury on points. Think Fury will try to fight long and be happy to win a wide UD.
Whyte has one big punch and that’s a telegraphed left hook he is made for Fury. Wilder has limited skills but his rangey movement,power and ability to land bombs with both hands from odd angles gave Fury more to think about.
I want to see all of E-Hearn's HWs taken down one by one and ReMatchroom's foothold in the sport's glamour division ripped from beneath their feet. E-Hearn and ReMatchroom do business with honourable men like Usyk and Krassyuk and Povetkin and Ryabinskiy but they are not honourable men themselves. I used to go to bat for E-Hearn but I feel violated and I'm riddled with self-loathing and disgust now for doing so. I've been bitten by the snakes of hate and deceit and my heart can never return to love and trust again.
The fact Hearn is already talking about matching Whyte with Fury makes me doubt the shoulder injury is real, or the extent is being exaggerated.
This fight is like the Chisora fight but a little tougher for Fury. In other words, Dillian is coming to get his paycheck and anything else is an unexpected bonus. Whyte will get knocked out cause he doesn't have anywhere near as good a chin as Chisora. All of the small guys cause no problems for Fury other than Usyk. Fury can just keep Dillian behind the jab, and then wait for an opportunity to strike and knock this guy's lights out.
Whyte's going to make this surprisingly competitive after Fury turns up fat and disinterested and shortly finds himself getting outjabbed and out-hustled by the "skilless" Whyte. By mid rounds he's in a real dogfight, trying to take control of the fight after Whyte starts turning up the heat. Fury's quality in this regard begins to show through and he hurts and drops Whyte after Whyte gets sloppy and starts to gas.
Another love fest thread by Fury nut lickers. No way Fury fights as early as February. He'll be fat and drunk from now to after New Years'. He'll come up with some excuse and delay the bout till late spring - early Summer. This way he can delay his inevitable defeat at the hands of the slickster Usyk.
What attributes caused Fury problems in the 3rd fight ? Because Wilder was very slow that night. Nowhere near as fast has he was in the 210s and 220s. No faster than Whyte and just as sloppy. Are you referring to Wilders height and reach ?
Why did you specifically mention the third fight when I never mentioned it ? In post 17 I mentioned what attributes caused Fury problems .
A competitive tune-up fight for Fury ahead of the generation defining fight against Usyk. Fury should fight Whyte, then AJ, then after that go for it with Usyk Usyk rematches AJ, then fights another average heavyweight If that happens both fighters should have their ring sharpness back post-covid, and both would go into a unifying fight with Fury being 33-0 and Usyk being 21-0. Would be a very special occasion
