    Freedom, do you think Fury is bull****ting with this statement or do you think a geniune offers has been made? As far as I know, Wladimir has to make a mandatory against Povetkin.

      I think it's just talk from Fury, although he does plan to eventually fight Wladimir.

      Wladimir needs to fight Povetkin and then Pulev, his two mandatories.

      Fury should try for a WBO eliminator against Helenius, and become Wlad's WBO mandatory.

        Fury is sloppy but he has huge power and uses his height very well

        Wlad should win it but with heavyweights you can win with 1 big punch

        wlad will not be able to hold him much, so it will be interesting to see this fight
        Haye wasn't even a tough fight, it was a flop of a fight. Haye didn't do anything and Wlad just played it safe. There was nothing in that fight.

          Channel 5 are putting pressure on Hennessy, i'd imagine. He's stepping it up with Johnson in his next fight, but they won't accept any more 'bum' fights. He's going to have to fight a few top 10 fighters in 2013.

            Total Punches landed: Klitschko 26% - 25% Haye
            Total Jabs Landed: Klitschko 28% - 21% Haye
            Total Power Landed: Klitschko 22% - 30% Haye

            Wladimir didnt dominate nothing, edged close rounds yes. Wladimir shut down haye's offense...but haye also shut down wlads

              Fury is going to struggle with Johnson, if Johnson had more power i'd pick him to win. Fury will sc**** a decision and think he's king of the world, i don't see him fighting a Klitschko or any top rated fighter with decent power for quite a while yet.

                Fury can box pretty well for a big guy, he is very versatile and has a big heart but what worries me is his lack of 1. movement, 2. reflexes and 3. chin...if wladimir klitschko vs tyson fury happens i think it will be an early night, wlad will start fast and pick fury apart with sharp and heavy straight rights and left hooks.

                  Strange how you just put down percentages and not how many punches were actually thrown. As I said Wlad dominated Haye by keeping him at the end of his jab. Just like I knew he would do. But you can keep spinning it anyway you want. I guess it helps to keep you mind busy? But, at the end of day Haye still lost by a wide margin that wasn't even close to being debatable.

                    Wlad won the rounds but there was really little in it as far as actually meaningful blows go. I wouldn't call landing a few jabs a round that had little to no affect as dominating.

                      Yes if you tally up who won the rounds it would be in wladimirs favour by a wide margin but he didnt "dominate" they were not much in the rounds untill about the last 2 or 3, if you count landing a few jabs and skiffing the rest as dominating then sure...spinning things and keeping my self busy...no its called watching a fight closely and stating the facts. wladimir definaitly won fairly and i am not taking anything away from him but i just get annoyed when a fighter gets slated and the other fighter didnt do much either but gets let off. his range and distance is what kept haye at bay not the jab
