How will Fury fight against Whyte?

[deathofaclown]

If I had to guess I would say he's 'in love with his power' now and will try and walk Dillian down.

But I really hope that's not the case for his sake. Dillian is not Deontay. He has a lot more to his game, particularly a nasty hook and overhand right. He will be more than happy with Fury coming at him. Turns it into a real 50/50 battle. Wouldn't be surprised to see multiple knockdowns for both.

What Dillian wouldn't like is trying to catch Tyson, can see it being a shut out - but I don't think that Fury exists now. His ego has grown too big.

Fury is as smart as they come in the ring. He will box Whyte’s ears off, not just walk him down, until he can. There’s very little chance Fury goes into big fights with ****** tactics.

Whyte has the worst feet and balance I’ve seen from a supposed world level boxer. Even if Fury isn’t as agile as he was v Wlad, his feet are still 100x better than Whyte’s and he’ll exploit it.

There’s absolutely no way Whyte will be able to close distance fast enough if Fury doesn’t want him to. Then he’ll end up just falling short with his terrible balance and getting picked apart by Fury. whyte often gets by with his very slow feet because he often has a reach advantage, which he doesn’t even have this time either

Even if Fury was only 75% as fleetfooted as he used to be it , is still too much for Dillian and his cement feet and drunken balance. Fury can make this fight as easy as he wants to

its going to be a methodical beating, with Whyte getting desperate and getting stopped

missed wilders career?

He knows Whyte can't eat uppercuts. He's been hurt badly by uppercuts against Joshua, Rivas, Parker, and Povetkin.

So I expect he'll spend a few rounds setting traps and then wipe out Whyte with an uppercut in the first half.

Oh I agree that Fury can do that. I just don't think he will. Something tells me he thinks he can just walk anyone down now. And that's a bad idea in this fight, Dillian is basic, but he's not Wilder basic.

Think he's going to box at range until whyte gets tired then walk him down late on. I can imagine alot of showboating from fury in this fight .

[Nash out]

I think he'll do a blend. He'll start picking up the pace though once he fully gets Whyte's timing and rhythm down, and start picking him off with more and more big shots. I know some people don't like to admit Fury is a power puncher, despite pretty much all of his opponents and sparring partners saying he is very powerful, but Fury hits a bit harder than Whyte imo, and will win by knockout as some point in the fight. When? I'm not sure as it depends on how early the fight heats up. If Whyte comes out throwing nothing but bombs, Fury counters him to bits inside 3 rounds. If Whyte mixes it up, it could go deep. It's HW boxing, Whyte has to have some kind of outshot chance, but the pick here is Fury, big. Nash out. Nash resides in a sock drawer inside the Boxingscene Hall of Fame.

Good question. Fury may have grown delusional about his power after the past two fights with Wilder. I can easily see him fighting like that for the rest of his career but it’s not the right way to go about it imo. I hope he boxes early and opens up more as the fight goes on and Whyte begins slowing.

i am whyte

He'll spend the first couple of rounds figuring Whyte out and then boxing how he needs to box.

Whyte throws bigger shots than Fury. That's why Fury is considered to not be a big puncher - he doesn't throw many big punches. It's also why Wilder was considered a huge puncher - he only threw huge punches.

But a 270 pound man will hurt you regardless. When he steps into his jab he's got plenty behind it.

I doubt Fury will go in looking for an early KO. That's never been his style. He'll do what he needs to do.

Whereas Whyte will need to hurt Fury.
