Am I the only one who has seen a change in Wlad post-Stewart? He was always a very good offensive fighter, which was his undoing in his losses, especially when he gassed against Brewster and Donald.
He fought Pulev with a similar style. Pulev was outgunned and it was a fan friendly fight but Wlad would likely gas if he were to fight that way into deeper rounds.
He has said he is more aggressive against bigger fighters. If he is speaking truthfully on his strategy it may work against him.
Fury's movement may present stamina problems down the stretch as well, and his body work too, if he's able to get it in. The movement also has potential to neutralize some of Wlad's offense, needless to say.
Jennings was successful at this, but didn't have the return fire to be effective.
I think Fury may be looking to take Wlad. deep and drown him.
One other point, Wlad. has had trouble with southpaws. Sanders' kayo is an obvious instance, but also Thompson. He had trouble landing on Ibragimov as well, despite dominating the action in that fight.
Fury is an orthodox switch hitter of course (is he left handed though?) and has poor defense from southpaw and a mediocre lead hand, but he does have a solid straight left that he may be able to land pretty well, given the angle.
