Official Tyson Fury vs Wladimir Klitschko Post Fight Discussion Thread

It was interesting seeing Kllitschko in the televised faceoff uncharacteristically attempting to take a few digs at Fury. He was desperately trying to gain a psychological edge, any edge really. As usual Fury refused to yield an inch. Wlad then had to take time off to get his confidence back.
I really hope this fight happens. Fury is going to take Wlad places he isn't mentally or physically prepared to go.Comment

Is there a limit of the ****** shit you say?
Easy Work?
A guy with Povetkin's movement, combos, ability of getting into inside and power is an easy work for Tyson Fury?
Fury does good against shorter, slow plodding fighters aka the last 2 years of his career minus Cunningham.
Povetkin with his mobility is a stylistic nightmare to Fury.Comment

Povetkin has historically never done great against taller fighters. Even Firtha was giving him some problems, and managed to last the distance without being significantly hurt. It remains to be seen how well he does against Wach, but for now I reckon that Fury would, not exactly comfortably, but clearly outpoint him in a fight which might bear a few ugly similarities to the Wlad fight (lots of clinching and roughhouse stuff etc).Comment

This new beast-mode Povetkin definitely could, no doubt. His overhand right is quite tasty too, and his body shots could do some damage as well. Fury would have to tie him up on the inside or try to maul him and impose his superior physical presence on him, wear him down the way he wore down Cunningham while using his superior jab and mobility to keep him on the outside whenever he has the chance. It'd be a gruelling tactical fight for both men and probably quite an ugly one. Not quite as ugly as Povektin vs Wlad but Fury isn't anywhere near as reckless these days as he used to be, and would probably resort to fighting dirty if he felt Povetkin getting the upper hand.Comment
