This was taped before Wlad pulled out with his "injury".
What's interesting is that Fury says he has a speed advantage over Wlad. I think Wlad is quicker than a lot of people realise. I think Haye thought he was going to be much faster than Wlad but it wasn't the case. I'm not saying he is lightning fast, but his intelligent movement is just as effective as others quick movement. I think Haye felt he has so much speed advantage that he could dart in and out, but Wlad is very quick to take a backwards step and make guys lean in. Both Fury and Wlad are very agile for such big guys.
With that said, i still think Wlad is going to have to show something different in this fight if he's going to win it convincingly. I think the tactics like leaning down on the opponent to tire them isn't going to work with a bigger man, also Fury can match him for reach and Fury can fight long which may force Wlad to need to get a little closer than he's usually willing to if he wants to land shots, which might be ideal for Fury because he's a good inside fighter for a huge guy.
I still lean towards Wlad and he's rightly the favourite but he will have to show he has a few more tricks up his sleeve than he has needed to in recent years. I'm sure he does, he's very experienced.
Not only is Wlad's speed underestimated, he throws his punches very short and crisp. He knocks people out with left hooks that start 6 inches from their face. Just look at the way he put down Povetkin.

Oh, and by the way, that hook comes off the best jab in boxing.... so there is that.
People have this mistaken belief that Wlad only does what he does because of his size. He uses his size to his advantage, but what makes him so imposing, is his power, precision, methodical approach to dismantling you...
People always think of him fighting at range, but look at when he goes on the attack, half the times he droppes someone for the first time, he explodes in with a short hook inside. He lulls them into thinking that he just wants to stay outside, and that they have to get inside past this jab to do anything, and they are unprepared for when he suddenly exploding towards them.
Fury's willingness to give up his height and "fight on the inside" is not going to be an advantage for him, because Wlad picks when he is going to fight on the inside, and you are going to pay for it when he does.
I think Fury has shown he can still be entertaining by abandoning the clown routine and being fairly articulate and down to business, he came off quite well here and Wlad seemed a bit subdued. Overall expected more to be honest from this program, although i'd much prefer fireworks in the ring rather than in these pre-fight things - we saw the exciting hype followed by disappointment already with the Haye fight.

Tyson Fury should pull out with an injured hairline. Sheesh that poor bastard looks 47, not 27.
Fury is a funny dude but this should be an easy fight for Wlad cause he's so much better than Tyson. People think Tyson has a great shot because they like his personality.
I think he has a shot because he'll be hard to clinch and so much of Wlad's game relies on that. I'm still picking Wlad though.
Reminder: Wladimir pulled out of the fight shortly after this was recorded.
Fury mind raped him.
On the basis of this video you realise it sounds even more absurd than it did 3-4 weeks ago ? :crackhead
Underwhelming. Wladimir was the same as ever; Tyson was curiously composed.
Can't take too much from it.
Tyson likely expended too much nervous energy in the presser previously, he looked uncomrtable at the beginning when Wlad began to talk and he clearly did not like what he was hearing, hence he started talking as much as he could, thankfully it was only twenty minutes long.
As you said Wlad failed to rise to Fury, we saw this with Haye over four years ago, opponent talks, Wlad laughs. Their was nothing new to be seen, in fact it was by and large the same two shyt talkers doing what they do best, whilst Wlad tries to look interested.

That's a parody account.
I found it quite boring. Fury said a couple funny things but Wlad just didn't look interested and he didn't engage.
Not bad. I can't wait for Whyte-Joshua. I think that comes out around fight week.
