Maybe not. But I can only take it on face value.

What he did was disgraceful.

LOL... Fury is far from being among the fastest guys in HW.
Only advantages Fury has are Heigh and Reach.

On other aspects Klitschko is way better than Fury. Especially athleticism.

Compare this


to this




This fight won't be competetive as people may think.
Wlad will win almost all rounds and take easy UD.
Don't forget this figh will happen in Germany where Wlad always look like GODlike boxer.

You do realize that athleticism and physique are completely different right? what a numpty

I also believe that Wach would KO Fury.

There's no evidence at all that Fury could beat that big and that tough an opponent. Stronger and more durable than anything Fury has been in with.

Wach has wasted some giants and already proved he can survive Klitschko.

Wach KO6 Fury

That's your opinion and you are entitled to it, but I find Wach's skills rather mediocre.

I don't put him in the same class with Fury, at all.

That's one of the intrigues about this fight.

We are use to Wlad. fighting smaller opponents, with the exception of Wach.

Wlad. is now fighting another bigger guy, and imo Fury is much better than Wach.

His 'windmakers' allow him to throw crisp, head snapping combinations from all angles while remaining light on his feet, something a lot of bigger boxers can't do. If he wanted to he could load up, but he trades off pure power for speed and a peppering workrate which makes him far more dangerous.

Vitali was the same, only he was lumbering to go along with it. Fury combines speed, sharpness and a natural heavy handedness to effect devastating damage on his opponents. When you're a 250lbs man even arm punches are going to do damage.

There are SOME truths in your post but it's largely a mistake. First off, the opposite statement of your opening paragraph is also true. That other boxers trade off rapid easy to string together shots for more technically direct and sharper punches wth more power and accuracy (i.e. Klitschko). Thing is I AGREE that Fury should fight like he does and not attemp to load up, it would not suit him and I believe he would likely be folded if he tried because such direct and loaded striking necessitates much higher technical skill and reflexes for the style.

And similarly, it is this "peppering wind maker" style that is more borne out of the fact that the fighter is desperate and needs to "annoy" his opponent constantly so that he wont be obliterated.

The more direct and laser like Wladimir punches require far more committment as opposed to the Fury type which involve F/A committment. On that front it stands to reason that the Wladimir type shots represent far better timing nd accuracy as it is of course more difficult to reset after each shot sequence. The trade off though is a far cleaner and economical punching technique which is why the Fury style, first pioneered by Muhammad Ali, has not been successful since Larry Holmes 30 years ago! That's why only a 260lb guy 6'9" like Fury is able to pull it off! And so far the only decent+heavy opponent he did pull it off against, was only a 6'1" 240lb fair bummy record Chisora! Pretty much akin to Ali beating the bum Frazier!

On your moronic Vitali comparison, that is pure trolling. You cannot compare the shots of Vitali to those of Fury. Sure Vitali is not Wladimir but Vitali you might say represents an inbetween style. Yes they were largely arm punches, like Foreman and yes he traded for a bit of extra speed but Vitali still injected plenty of power into his punches. In fact Vitali's entire style was based around his absolutely superior timing, affording him the cowboy style. Throwing from the hips like that also boosted Vitali's power.

Vitali didn't get the highest KO% in history against the heftiest+by record best quality opponents for nothing mate.

Fury is a throwback to punchbag style eras which can only be afforded BECAUSE of his size in summary. Soon as he faces an opponent even close to his own size who hits properly.. He is done imo!

And I didn't even factor in potential chin weakness.

[KnockoutNed]

If a lesser , slower , older , lighter hitting version of Fury caused prime best ever Wlad all sorts of problems for 11 rounds , but fast , youthful , dynamic , awkward Fury to some here has no chance against an older Wlad?? ok

There is a strong possibility that Wlad will find a way out of this fight again.
