Maybe. But he never fought a super heavyweight like Pulev, Ustinov, Price or Wlad. He showcased hand speed tonight and can fight as a southpaw, but still questions with his chin and he is not that powerful for a big man.
:smoke Too Slippery, too Slick, too Pastey White, too Sweaty for DelBoy!! Now FatBoy gets to kiss the canvas against Waldo for Big $$$$!!! :yep :hey
Tyson Fury has matured and improved a lot, I think he's the most serious threat to Wladimir Klitschko right now.
The fight was boring as hell but Fury has great skills, he fought easy and dominated a good opponent.
Top 2 HW. Defense is excellent now. Will still get stopped by Wlad because of the glass jaw. Favor him over any other HW after tonight.
His defense isn't that good: 1) He walks himself into corners. 2) Slow. 3) Drops his hands far too often. 4) Limited head movement.
Looked very professional. He has sharpened his skills. Not good enough to beat Wlad or Povetkin but in the mix after that. And he is very young for the division. Being Heavyweight champ means about 30 mil a year USD... which some claim is not very much.
I think this guy is very very interesting he moves easy and jabs effortlessly things you do not see on a heavy
