How about Fury's footspeed to close USS down and get his weight on him, how about his quick hands letting off combinations to Steve's body to help slow him down, how about the powers of recovery and heart he showed to get off the deck and systematically break a fast guy down?
      Fury's footspeed? Really? He was only walking into punches and blocking shots with his heads and lumbering around. His foot speed wasn't great and neither was his footwork. He landed a few combos with quick hands which I give him credit for. He only had to show heart because he got smashed by a dude who had no business dropping him. Also it wasn't as if he was terribly hurt and had to show a huge heart, I still respect his gameness though.

      My point is he only broke him down by mostly clubbing him with uneducated shots that just eventually took their toll on Cunningham, he didn't show any real skill or thought in doing so and that was the concern for me.

      You're just deducting credit because you're a naturally undersized guy. Nothing wrong with being small, God love you, but don't deduct credit where it's due from bigger men.
      This is genuinely one of the ******est things anyone has ever said to me, almost everything entailed in it is ******ed. :lol:

      1. It implies Cunningham isn't bigger than me in the first place at 210lbs. Why wouldn't I be critisizing them both if it was due to them being bigger. You've said I only deduct credit from bigger men, I haven't insulted Cunningham and I've given him credit for his heart. This implies I'm bigger than him. Yet I'm "naturally undersized"?
      2. It makes a hilarious assumption about my weight
      3. If I was "naturally undersized" then there would be lots of people bigger than me, and I would be insulting everyone above FW (if that's naturally undersized by your definition)
      4. "God love you" is stuck in there like you're some sort of preacher who can't help but fire God into every sentence.

      Not to mention it completely undermines your entire argument. Both of your posts have been digs at me (albeit either uncreative or ****** ) so it's hard to take you seriously.

        Meaning he can improve. But he beat a 2 time cruiserweight champ who never been stopped, and Fury stopped him, so has done better than anyone ever has against him.
        The top CW's would KO Mayweather i wouldn't find that impressive either. But if Mayweather dropped them it would be.

            I dont think he has a good chin, or decent power, but as long as he keeps winning he'll be relevant, he always comes across as taking the Chisora way to making money, talking as much ish as he can before he gets caught cold by Wlad
