Official Tyson Fury vs Wladimir Klitschko Post Fight Discussion Thread

Or just a fokkin idiot.

It's hardly surprising, given...


I hope Fury is ready for the therapy.

He's scared. He is a good actor and he's doing a great promotion job. But he is scared nonetheless.

I think he's not making the distance.

He know's he's in deep. His undefeated record (made up of victories against feather-fisted fighters and blown-up cruisers) is going to come to a brutal end.

Wlad is composed and calculated where as Fury is brash and reckless.

Klitschko didn't really need to pull out and play mind games but I find it amusing to see Fury squirming. Imagine all that hype for the big fight against such a dominant champion in Wlad K, all that preparation and days before the fight is due to happen - Klitschko withdraws.

What does Fury do with all that energy he's gathered up? He goes from cussing Klitschko out for being a ***** then to anxiety and worrying that his stunt at the presser cost him the fight. He remains nervous until the fight is back on and a date confirmed.

This time 'round he has doubt, doubt as to whether the fight will happen. He's already been through this with David Haye and he just can't shake that uneasiness.

I don't think Fury was ever going to trouble Klitschko but it really amuses me to see how well Wlad played Fury at his own game.

Wlad KO2. This fight is going to be a lot easier than the hype suggests.

Got to wonder how many more fights Wladimir has left though.

[Simurgh]

Can't wait. It is going to be a terrific fight. I am a bit surprised people don't realise how good and tricky Tyson is.

It's 50:50 fight.

I'm actually surprised by how many people are giving Fury any sort of a chance. People seem to forget he was losing on the cards against Steve Cunningham and was down in the second round.

Steve fuckin' Cunningham!

He was losing the battle of the jabs and being outboxed by a blown up cruiserweight. Fury hasn't fought another top heavyweight either. Cunningham might actually be his best win and he was losing that fight.

It will be very telling on 28th November who is the better boxer, I have no doubt about that. All Fury has to go off is him outworking Wlad. He doesn't have the boxing ability or the punching power and he's far too sloppy and careless to last the distance.

I am Wlad's fan and I hope he wins, but I don't think it will be easy.
Fury is a switch. It is very hard to establish jab against a giant southpaw (look at TT-Wlad). Basically Wlad's jab was nonexistant in that fight. He won by throwing bombs and bullying TT.

When Fury switches to southpaw and leans back, Wlad will have a very hard time connecting.Fury is sloppy at time, but he is a very versatile. He can do many things to disrupt the pattern. Wlad will need to show something more. He won't be winning with jab. He won't be winning by left hook (as that's the punch Tyson will be prepared for). I can see Wlad catching him with fast, sharp right. There is no defence for that one the way Wlad can do it.

Interesting.. I think someone is going down.

Hardly the best fight to judge Fury's capabilities on.

"losing on the cards". lol.

He was losing on the cards because of that KD and had won the past 3-4 rounds convincingly before the stoppage. Hardly reflective of the way the fight was going.

Fury's not a natural southpaw like Thompson and against whom does Fury display these great qualities? Overmatched opponents. Any word on who Fury has been sparring in preparation for this fight? I don't think he's fought anyone who's taller than 6ft4 and decent.

It's a simple case of who has Fury beaten, it doesn't matter how good he's looked if the opponent isn't worthwhile.

Hardly the best fight to judge Fury's capabilities on.

Why isn't it the best fight to judge Fury's capabilities on? Cunningham is one of the better opponents he's faced.

With regards to my wording, you're a journalist right?
