    i like fury i also like wladimir but the latter is better all round , klitschko you have to pierce the guard of his defense and few people have managed to do it to a devastating effect , what i would like to see is klitschko being put under tremendous pressure and i think fury will do that but that's where wlad's power comes in , fury at some point will get caught and caught big and fury might rise once but i doubt he rises a second time

      Fury can not take a shot like Wlad and he sure as hell doesn't hit anywhere near as hard or have the skills and athleticism that Wladimir possesses.

      Fury is not under any circumstances a huge puncher. In fact I feel hes a bit of an arm puncher and doesn't hit particularly hard for a guy of that size.
      He tends to grind down, much smaller opposition.

      Wladimir has completely flattened many top level heavyweights who have never been down before in a single punch.
      People comment on his straight right, his left hook is also a game changer and one of the most underrated punches in boxing IMHO.

        You are absolutely right for Wlad's left hook. He destroyed Thomspon in the first fight with the left hook.

          On another note i think Vitali would crush Fury, definitely 18 months+ back, probs still now too. However i am a pretty big fan of Fury, decent scrapper and he's game plus he's got great banter and perhaps is a bit mental, exiting mix!

            Wlad definitely hits harder.

            Chin is an open question, he was knocked down by a big shot from Pajkic , but he got up fine and recovered almost instantly so it's not too bad a thing, plus he was fighting like a muppet at that point.

            Wlads chin is pretty poor, the one clean shot Wach landed definitely hurt him, he's just damn good at not getting hit.

            Overall wlad has the advantage at this time, but then he does have almost 15 years more experience so it's hardly surprising

              Fury is a much improved fighter and the way he's disciplined himself in terms of his fighting style and physical shape is very impressive, but what evidence is there to suggest he's the power puncher he claims to be? He landed lots on Chisora but didn't destroy him like Haye did. He smashed up Vinny Maddalone and Martin Rogan, but that's Vinny Maddalone and Martin Rogan.

              I like Fury and I respect him for the massive improvements he's made, but there's very little concrete proof to show that he's a threat to the Klitschkos right now.

                  tbh I wouldn't mind seeing Fury in with Audley Harrison. Haye and Price destroyed him quickly, can Fury?

                    It'd be fun but too much of a step back from Johnson and Cunningham

                    I want to see price vs Audley 2, it's just a case of who lands first in that one
