With the Klitschko's you know it's customary when dealing with them. You know yourself if it had gone purses their wouldn't have been one. If Klitschko was to lose would he even be allowed an immediate rematch, doubtful unless it was like a SD loss I suppose. Haven't you got to be in the top 5 with the IBF to be allowed an immediate rematch ? Their are plenty of intangibles I'm sure.

Yeah I know that, it's usual for all champions. but usually with a mandatory shot it's a one off which is why so many people go for it. I'm assuming he's got a bigger purse for signing the rematch clause and also he gets more money from the second fight if he wons.

I'm not entirely sure, but he was mandatory for WBA and WBO - So maybe it's because they're fighting for all the belts. I'm not sure.

Has the undercard been published yet?

Wlad will defend all the belts as he always does, I think it will be interesting to see which sanctioning bodies Fury pays his fees with, will he pay them all or just one of the WBO and WBA, possibly both ? I'm intrigued to know does he factor in the other bodies. Personally I'll take it as he genuinely believes he can win if he pays all the bodies, if not, I'll take his pre fighg talk for what it actually is, hyperbole. The guy is no different to David Haye.

Braekhus and I assume Hughie, that's it at this time I believe.

But Wladimir is the one having to pay sanctioning fees as the champion I believe. What I meant was, with WBO/WBA Fury could have gotten a one off shot with no rematch clause. Klitschko might have made a deal saying: "We fight for all belts, but it includes a rematch clause" or something like that.

I'm sure Fury is 100% confident he can win. But whether it's false confidence we'll see on the night.

I am sorry Yoz but the Furious one will be victorious, Wlad doesnt know what he is walking into, he is underestimating Fury

The rematch will a huge deal though, most likely in the USA

Vlad has never really fought a guy with the exception of Thompson who can move well in the ring. Fury moves well, his team is smart and trains him properly, I think they know what he has to do. But Fury has to borrow that page from Ali Liston and know when to go for it. Theres a point in that fight where Ali establishes that he is faster and can hit liston. He had already showed he could avoid Liston.

There are about a million scenerios i can imagine where Fury is better and does not get the nod. I really hate when that happens cause it makes me hate boxing and no Klitschko ****** would admit it if Klit loses on points and gets a favor.

Also interesting enough! Angel Garcia says it best. he was acting very ignorant of this fight but real gold came out of those Borican jaws...then he started to hum pinky and the brain. He is dead on when he says a fighter needs to come up the middle on Klitschko. jan jab uppercut. Fury can do that...not like Tyson but he can do that and catch the china chin.

TT was one of the most educated fighters Wlad ever got in the ring with and by Wlad's own account had the best defense of any opponent he ever faced (which says alot about the era he competed in) but he was slow as a snail. A better example would be when he fought touch of sleep Williamson, a long rangy somewhat decent mover. Williamson defeated Wlad by out maneuvering him and making him huff and puff out his ass before flooring him in the 4th. Then making him quit in the 5th. He wanted no part of Williamson ever again since the style was all wrong for him. I suspect it'll be all wrong for him again against a good moving HW in Fury.

"I don't like him, for one. I don't think he's an ambassador and has ruined the heavyweight division. People say he's a great champion, clean-shaved, un-tattooed, great manners, very educated. So what? He's boring and has ruined the division as far as I'm concerned.

"He's got as much personality as the wall I'm looking at in front of me."

Are you touched mentally? Just asking. You know there's a website with boxing records and results right?
