    All this wlad all of a sudden got old, fury is not the best boxer in the world but wlad had never fought any1 with furys height and i actully think fury will toy with him in the rematch.

    Fury is a lot better boxer than you think, height, range, great footwork, nice hand speed. If he had a one punch k.o he would prob reign for a number of years.

    had wlad even bothered to fight it would. helll, fury and wlad together threw less than one average hw, with almost nothing from either having bad intentions behind it. worst title fight ever.

    But Ali would go for the knockout and wasn't afraid to be hit

    Tyson is afraid to get hit? The only man to hold his arms behind his back and mug off an all time great and one of the biggest punchers ever?

    It's a fair win but let's not make this out to be as if he defeated a prime Wlad

    mccall didn't even bother to defend himself in the lewis rematch and still wasn't even phased.

    That is rather unfair and not realistic to not give him his due credit for his win


    I agree.

    But I think why many fans seem to be indifferent to both Fury and Wilder are that they come across as overbearing assholes. Not the James Toney/Shannon Briggs kind of "hype the fight, contrived personality", but genuinely slow-witted assholes who are very easy to dislike. lol

    That said , Fury is better than I initially gave him credit for, as much as I hate to admit that about such a distasteful guy. He is awkward and comes across as uncoordinated, yes, but for his size he is very effective with his movement and has decent speed When those attributes are combined with his size/reach advantage, he is hard to deal with for anyone. If he had KO power he would be even more effective


    But I have to give him credit as he did suprise everyone and legitimately win that fight


    But I see Vlad thrashing him in the rematch, so Fury not getting credit will be a nonissue shortly Lol

    Because Fury had such an abysmal punch output and didn't throw anything other than a Jab and rabbit punches. He had a guy in front of him that wasn't throwing anything yet Fury was reluctant to try and get him out of there. A truly horrid fight.
