    Never can say.
    I think Fury would have won. I think his style as a mover was awkward for Wladimir and would have once again not let Wladimir set himself to throw his rights but who knows?
    I said Fury being a mover was why he would beat Wladimir but a KD or KO could happen either way

    I wrote before that I felt Fury would win on points and explained that I felt because Fury is a mover, I didnt think wlad would be throwing the right as much, as he would have trouble landing the jabs first. This seemed to be the case to me

    I wrote

    I picked for fury on points and my reason was wlads not throwing the right enough but I disagree with you saying about it being a mental thing and more to do with habit
    Wlad tends to double jab to find range before chancing the right.
    I picked for fury on points as I didn't think Wlad would throw the right because he has to set up the double jab and fury is a mover which i think offset Wlad, who after throwing the right likes to then hold and lean on his opponent which is something else I guessed he would have trouble with against fury as fury is as big and heavy
    I don't think it was a mental thing but more a habit of facing more static targets that let him get in range with the double jab
    That's shy I picked fury on points



    After writing this, I read in Boxing News -

    I’m more likely to say fury now because we have seen a bit more evidence on how he handles adversity, he has a way of surviving. If Wlad did land more and hurt fury, I think tyson would have the ability to think under fir and come back. I wouldn’t have said that before the wilder fight. I also agree on the tecnphnical points that fury disrupted wlad, so it’s not a simple case of wlad just throwing more punches, he couldn’t or felt vulnerable in doing so. This is of course if fury came into the rematch in the same shape and taking into account wlad is the older fighter, he would need all his timing in this fight, which he appears to have lost a bit.

    That was an ugly fight that Fury barely won, not sure if wlad would have won a rematch, but I’m sure a few years younger wlad would have finished featherfisted clown. Fury is not anything special , he couldn’t beat old shot wlad convincingly and barely survived wilder.

    Like I stated years ago, fury will NEVER beat one of the hw champs. Meaning fury will never will another real belt..

    He had the perfect opportunity with Wilder who wasn't prepared for his quick fury is but Wilder figure fury out by the later rounds.

    Now that fury was exposed by Wilder's left right which 99.99999% of the time that fight is waved OFF. He literally looked like he was shot by 12 Guage.

    That was fury gift from that ref, neither landed enough clean effective shots to claim the rounds.. Most of the rounds were too even to give either the rounds, this was in both the wlad and Wilder fights.

    Fury refuses to engage within the offensive part of the fight, and that's a massive piece,, the majority in all honesty..

    This is the reason he'll never ever win another real belt, again
