Comments Thread For: Frank Warren: Fury Has More Heart Than Klitschko

I don't think so, but he is probably a better singer.

so much heart that he refuses to fight anyone with a pulse before he is given his title shot

[Korver]

I don't remember WK ever avoiding any fighters, quitting against a fighter or not getting up after a knock down... The first two cannot be said for Tyson (he avoided Price, quit against Ustinov). Thus I would say it is the opposite to what Warren said.

Lol. Here they come. I'd been waiting for an expert analysist to come along and shine some light on how Fury can actual beat the champion.

Natural born ducker, I don't actual believe it is his own choice though, just that his handlers recognise his limitations, hence why they pulled him from Pulev fight and ordered WBC eliminations before that.

A guy whos best win was against a guy he had to rely solely on cheating to overcome a points deficit against a 200lb career cruiser with 50% KO ratio. a guy whom has had a good few bumps along the way, and possibly a more carefully matched heavyweight career than Haye.

Ducked Price to fight Rogan for Irish title, a fight where upon Rogan gave him fits in the two rounds Rogan was competitive before he gassed hard before going back to drive cabs in Dublin, that is not a cheap joke either, Rogan is in fact a part time cab driver !

Fury in fact did not duck Ustinov, it was his uncle who made him duck him. Upon finding out Ustinov was taller than 6' his uncle decided the risk was too much considering the work that had gone into his career keeping him from any real tests or fights he may be exposed by not being able to rely on his size to pull himself over the line.

I actually rate Fury pretty highly, I just wish he could push himself to test himself, ie tell his handlers he wants the fights they have refused, He should take note of Wilder, Wilder didnt duck Stiverne when presented with a title shot, Fury should have demanded they accept the Klitschko offer in 2012 and the ordered IBF and WBC eliminations he refused to participate in, we could have already witness the Fury Wlad fight last November instead of Pulev, though i personally doubt Fury would have come through that fight having seen the way Pulev stopped Dimitrenko and yeh guy Fury ducked in Ustinov, with his jab alone. Fury is a born quitter, I doubt he wold have finished on his knee unlike Ustinov and Dimitrenko.

Either people have different definitions of 'heart', or they simply are delusional, but I'm not sure in what world Wlad does not have a ton of heart. Never ducked anyone, every time he has been knocked down, he has refused to stay down and always gets back up (literally and metaphorically) - everyone wrote him off, and he proved everyone wrong. Question the guys chin or maybe fighting style, but to question his heart is disrespectful.

Fury's heart hasn't really been proven at all yet. It's all the talk mainly of having to nail him down to the canvas and that he will fight anyone anyway anywhere anyhow, but till we actually see him in difficult situations (other than being knocked down by bums or cruiserweights), there is certainly no grounds to declare he has more heart than Wlad.

If heart was all you needed then Arturo Gatti would have beaten Floyd Mayweather. In reality Gatti got the breaks beaten off of him.

Great post, very accurate and on point. Green sent my friend.

I hope Fury proves to be one of the most deserving opponents for Klitschko when or if he ever decides to actaul challenge himself, the fight has so much potential. With Fury's tendency to avoid any noteworthy challenges though i reserve my doubts we will in fact see him challenge for the title before Wlad retires, lets just hope with Wlad sticking around for a few years yet Fury is in fact forced to face him.
