Comments Thread For: Hearn: I Hope Tyson Fury Beats Wladimir Klitschko

[Boxing Goat]

Fury will give Wladimir the fight of his life, he's incredibly under rated

Insert opponent here was always a threat before the fight starts, then all of the sudden he was a bum who would not have even been a contender in other eras

im starting to think this is going to have way more bids then a normal purse bid. this is how it should work tho there should always be high demand on purse bids thats the whole point when promoters collude together in these its ridiculous

[BOMB ZQUAD]

Fury is not a bum, but I think he's a bit overrated.

I'm betting Wlad KO's fury late. Fury is only an inch taller than Wach (barely any difference) and we know what Wlad did to Wach. People seem to be ignoring the fact that Wlad actually boxes taller opponents better, Fury is in heaps of trouble.

If Fury wins, which he could, but it's such a slim chance. I'll respect him greatly, for now, I don't see any great advantages for him.

How come Joshua's not fought outside of the UK yet & not challenged for a British or even English title? "Bad management"!!

Number one, calling the ten year reigning heavyweight champ a punk is an oxymoron, you moron.

Number two, Fury hasn't got the skills to stop Klitschko.

Get your head out.

[Easy Work.]

Not gonna happen, wlad will beat him easier than pulev.

Wlad is better than fury at everything in the ring, its hillarious that some ppl think fury will beat wlad. Fury probably wont even beat jennings

[techdude69]

Wishful thinking! Wlad will school fury and then KO him hard. It will fun to watch while it lasts.

I agree with you, and I think Hearn could put a nice bid.

It is one of the best fights in the HW division, and if Joshua would be in the undercard with the chance to get the winner, I think it could fill the Emirates or something similar in UK. That would bring big money from gate receipts, let's say 6M pounds? Plus TV rights it could go to 7-8M pounds, 10-12M$. It would be in SKY, and it could lead to another future big event, so Hearn should at least consider about it.

That's simply not true.

There are certain fighters Klitschko gets full crédit for who they were. Byrd, Peter, Haye & Ibragimov, Brock etc. he doesn't get full credit for beating Chambers for some reason. But he gets it from me. Now take Haye for instance. Called a cruiser bum by K fans before the bout but now want credit for beating him. Hmm..

People don't give Klitschko credit for beating guys like Mormeck, Wach, Pianeta, Leapai, Rahman, Peter II etc because they aren't good fighters and certainly hasn't done anything to warrant a title shot. They were just lucky because Klitschko needed opponents.

That being said, I think Fury is the biggest threat for Wlad, certainly since Haye and maybe even further back because of a few reasons. Wlad pushing 40 and let's be honest, not really looking great lately. Fury being longer, taller and possibly quicker at this stage and coming into his prime. Whether he wins or loses against Wlad he'll be amongst world titles in the future.

If Wlad beats Fury convincingly I feel it's a great feather in his cap.
