Finally got a chance to see the fight from yesterday and, once again, Fury has continued to improve. There hasn't been a fight I've seen him in yet where he hasn't shown something new/different than before. He's fought inside, outside, going forward, backfoot all types so far. tucking his chin much better now. Coordination improving as well. He will forever remain a big target and will probably continue to get dropped here and there, however.
As far as his power, he might be missing some snap right on the end of his shots. If he does have the natural power that Johnson is saying, then improving on the following thru and snapping his shots he will be ready to KO's fools once now that he's getting more comfortable with his stamina.
Regardless, I still find his big advantage or x-factor against other HW's is the fact that he can fight inside and that he has the mentality of a fighter. If there was no sport of boxing, I think he'd still be out there fighting somewhere. He got some boos lastnight but thats OK for that type of opponent.
