    Even schooling him, for 12 rounds, without even using everything he has. :huh

    He beat THE REIGNING CHAMP.

    Who does not give him credit? He outboxed Wlad and had him gun shy. It was a shut out. Hell his title should be Tyson "Money" Fury Jr. Jr..

    No idea what OP is on about, he gets huge credit for not just beating Wlad but effectively opening up the division in doing so - for good reason. HW has been much more interesting since that fight!

    Tyson Fury is the person who ended Wladimir's era and brought in a new era of HW, how is he not given credit.

    The OP isn't wrong Fury doesn't get the respect he deserves especially here, but tbh no heavyweight gets respect here.

    The only fighter that gets credit here likes beating up welterweights 2 weight classes below him and he has only ever beaten bums and ducks everyone and is a hypocrite.

    The real amazement is the way they hype his opponent selection then cast them aside after the fight. Where are those Willie Monroe hype threads at? Time to bump.

    Haven't you seen Monroes last fight? This guy is SLICK. He would beat Canelo and make it look EASY.

    1. Because Wlad is old.
    2. Because Wlad looked very poor in the fight right before Fury.

    Wlad very rarely lost more than a round, often losing no rounds. And the few times he did were against pretty good competition.

    Jennings is nowhere near good enough to justify how Wlad did against him.

    The only conclusion we can take away is that Wlad's age has gotten to him.

    I think Fury is very, very good, and I'm a huge fan, but I'm still waiting for him to fight other top fighters to see how good he really is.
