Originally posted by Freedom.I agree that people are making too much of the knockdown, especially since Fury dominated the fight afterwards.
It was just a flash knockdown. Although the NBC's BJ Flores was saying Fury was hurt, as I re-watched the fight I could see he really wasn't (except for his pride).
Now I remember, he was hurt the one time the ref pulled him to the side to warn him. Which gave him time to recover. I suggest you go back and rewatch.

Wladimir Klitschko - a little man in a big man's body. He's got no bottle and glass chin. He's been stopped 3 times, and since been matched very very carefully. Tyson Fury will catch up with him, probably early next year, once he's got Pulev out the way. Wladimir Klitschko is getting knocked spark out.

as for not agreeing with that "scapegoat", that's fine. I suggest from now on all boxers are only allowed their trainers during camp, and in the fight are not allowed them, since it won't make no difference anyway, we can just have some random guy with a water bottle instead. all good?

I love these hindsight comparisons. "oh pac was KO'd 2X and still went on to become an ATG, so this guy can do it too". Well 99.99999% of boxers dont go on to do anywhere near what pac or Vlad did after getting KO'd 2X

I'm not saying Fury won't be successful, but the comparison ignores an important factor. The average KO ratio of the fighters that knocked Wladimir down is 65%, whereas the average KO ratio of the fighters that knocked Fury down is 33.5%. To put things in perspective, Chris Byrd and Eddie Chambers have KO ratios of 47% and 46%.

I rather won't but as he is more respected here, sometimes it's easier + if the other side is Lennox's fan moreover...
It's actually compliment to Lennox.
