Comments Thread For: Arum: Whyte is Big Puncher, Poses Bigger Danger To Fury Than Even Wilder

[PotentialToast]

Whyte's going to pay almost every time he steps into Fury's firing range, or when he misses with a jab, misses with a left hook, etc.

His stamina isn't so good, and at some point I can see Fury mauling him and cracking him with an uppercut, then following with a big right hook.

Fury isn't really a knockout artist, but his right hook is a lot more powerful than he's given credit for. When he lands that square on the side of Dillian's head it's pretty much game over.

Fury does not want to get into right hooking range with Whyte as that only ends bad for Fury. He will also have to be careful not to over-extend his right cross. Whyte's straight right is also a very good punch, especially fighting out of a clinch. Either Fury loses 3 stone and pot shots or this is going to be a great fight.

I 've seen Whyte with one shot knock Parker to the canvas. I rate parker's chin over anyone Fury has fought.( yes he has a better chin than KLITSCHKO) Whyte has knockout power in that left hook , i dont care about Eddie Hearn, the ring , the referee. Noel out

You mean like Chisora did....in the first round....


Just Fury-Chisora III.

Huh , what did Chisora do??

Sent Parker to the canvas inside the first 20 seconds

You have to be the 1st I've heard saying Yokas a threat

Yup calling it a 6'7 with 80 plus reach quick on feat with pop in fist sure not wilder or pre ruiz ptsd aj power but its there add in boxing pedigree dude can box not just looking for ko similar hrgovic yet he has now power yet slower flat footed which aint the greatest for someone nimble n bigger in fury yet hrgovic got enough size n power with a deep pedigree as welll both are just 2 -3 realistic fights away from giving a fury fight. Usyk sure yet pre ruiz aj or fury or even wilder unless alot taken out of em give em 2-3 fights before such on paper neither them nor sanchez have a prof resume to hype about yet the eye test n added amatuer background u see a high ceiling for either yoka hrgovic more so hrgovic if takes a klitschko like style

He did??? bloody hell , it must have been a flash knock down because those NEW ZEALAND whiskers are certified.

Yeah, he got up quick but my point is Whyte's not much better or different from Chisora.

He is better because he has beat Chisora twice. he is also a better boxer as CHISORA only has one way of fighting. I do agree on the eye test they are similar, both Sloppy as hell. However, i have this feeling he will make the fight competitive with FURY but more than likely i will be wrong its not the first time

Tyson Fury is one bad man, to get up 4 times from Wilder knockdowns is an incredible feat, and despite that Fury was able to do it.
Remember that Wilder is known knocking fighters down, and out was or is still the most fearsome puncher in the heavyweight division.
One can arguably say that Fury didn't only beat Deontay 2 times, but all of the 3 times in which they faced off in the ring.
Those fights were all entertaining to watch to tall, powerful, and determined fighters to go at it without holding anything back.
How Arum can make the statement Whyte poses a greater threat to Fury than even Wilder did is beyond the scope of my reasoning.
Unless taking Arum is taking into consideration that Whyte throws his punches from different angles, or throws different combination's.
The only liability Fury might have is that he'll have to lean down a bit more to land against Whyte, causing him to expose his chin more,
and therefore meet punches head on, (producing double the impact).
That said I still believe that Fury will win this encounter, he's always found a way to overcome the adversities he's faced in the ring.
One last point Whyte doesn't take it on the chin as well as Wilder does, and I've seen him get shaken up in several of his fights that spells
trouble for whyte when coming up against Fury.

Have you seen the other two times fury was knocked down prior to wilder?

Hardly steller punchers


Wilder lacks any educated aggression to finish fury the times he had them hurt ,whyte has about 10 times more boxing iq in his pea head than wilder has in his

Couple of assertions here have to be questioned... Wallin Busted Fury up real good? How do you figure that? Fury was cut and Wallin could do nothing much to him after that cut.

Fury's endurance has never been an issue... He has great endurance.

Fury's jab is monumental because of the reach behind it. I agree he throws it ackwardly as hell but Fury has the timing down which makes the jab very hard to deal with.

Your last statement about a competing jab... Its just kind of not strong... I mean you qualify it immediately " Most of the time" but where do you actually see a guage of jabbing as a viable way to beat Fury?

The video tapes are out there, I don't really think I need to explain much. Tyson Fury at 254 pounds, was found in every single round by Ottin Wallin. Long gone were the days of when Tyson Fury, while training under Peter Fury 'Stylistically would not of been tracked down and found in this kind of fight'.

Wallin is a pretty much a plain simple fighter, nothing about his abilities jumps out at you. But he was still able to inflict serious damage, on Tyson Fury. And this was a 254 pound Tyson Fury 'Fury trained with the intent of bringing back his old Riddler style'.

Fury's jab is good, but I would not use words like monumental to describe it. Whenever Tyson Fury has faced another fighter, who can also jab 'Those fighters can compete with him in a jabbing contest'. Fury's jab has only appeared dominant against fighters who are not renowned for having strong jabs.

So Fury took apart Derek Chisora with his jab, that is great. Stylistically that is what he was supposed to do 'Lewis & Kiltschko would of done the same'.

Lennox Lewis & Wladimir Kiltschko made fighters with good jabs, stop using their jabs. I have not seen Tyson Fury induce this kind of behavior in his opponents who have good jabs.

Steve USS Cunningham at 6"3 was able to compete, Deontay Wilder in two of the 3 fights was able to compete, and so was Wladimir Kiltschko.

Dillian Whyte for me has the 3rd best Jab in the heavyweight division, behind both Fury & Wilder. I am not saying the jab is going to win him the fight, but? It will be evident in the fight.

Tyson Fury will win this fight, but people after this fight will realize 'That Kronk Fury is not peak Fury, and he is not miles better than these other heavyweights anymore'.

That is all I am saying. The Heavyweight division is very competitive, I don't think there is a big distance between fighters abilities.

No when Whyte defeats Fury they’ll use the excuse you are as if Fury was better years ago which is is laughable. He literally had to get a new trainer to learn how to throw with better techniques because he fought like Gumby in the past ,that won’t work against Whyte and he tried to run from Wallin but looked like a big clown all bloodied up . Whytes power punching is going to end him .
