Comments Thread For: Photos: Wladimir Klitschko, Tyson Fury Go Face To Face

the size diffrence isn't that big.

you can tell fury was nervou and in awe being around a real man. wlad will teach that clown fury class and will humble him.

Maybe Wlad is wearing height increaser shoes. Other photos I've seen of them standing together at Wlad's gym, Fury looked 2/3 inches taller than Wlad.

that's what i was thinking.

fury is nowhere near the 6'9" they claimed him to be when he was coming up.

wilder, for instance, is significantly taller than wladimir.

i'm not talking only about the diffrence in height (although it's not as big as i thought it would be).

wlad's frame is much bigger than fury's. maybe it's just this picture, but it looks like klitschko is the bigger man of the two, while fury is just taller.

plus fury still looks skinny fat, but the camp just started so..

he's getting knocked out either way.

fury looks a good 2 inches taller. wlad is 6'6 so fury is probably closer to 6'8. either way hes still going to be the tallest guy wlad has faced and he does have some clever awckwardness to him. wlad is definitely not just going to totally dominate. hes going to take at least a few rounds to figure fury out. I doubt very much that fury will fight with his chin in the air and be careless as he was against cunningham. this should be wlads toughest fight in quite some time

What did you expect? It's only 2-3 inches in height

i seriousy doubt that. i fully expect klitschko to knock him out within 4 rounds. he'll want to make a statement with this fight ("the king is still alive").

Looks about 2-3 inches to me.

im honestly excited as hell for this fight. obviously tyson is a long shot but regardless its still an intriguing matchup. if fury is able to keep his distance and use his jab it should be good. i just have a feeling klit is going to have to get on the inside to do real damage. i dont see this fight going the distance as both fighters are prone to being knocked down. i dont care what anyone says tho i cant wait and this fight is huge. lets say hypothetically fury gets lucky and somehow knocks klitsckho out. can you imagine how big wilder vs fury would be? it would bring so much new life into boxing that fight would be gigantic. as a fan of boxing im going to root for fury. I used to hate him but he really grew on me over the years him winning would be best thing happen boxing in awhile and i appreciate all of wlad skills i even enjoy his fights that most dont i think he is probably the most under rated and under appreciated heavy weight champion ever. but still him being at the top is not helping boxing grow in the states casuals and hardcore fans alike want life in the heavyweight division

Lol ...he'll yeah HBO is airing the fight right???

[Cinci Champ]

fury is going to sell the **** out of this fight tho i think by the time it happens the states will be completely on board with this fight and it will be huge. Im watching the press conference now and i hate to say it but i just feel like wlad is going to get up and say i will cruuuuuuush you lol he fits the usa stereo type of the eastern european in the 80-90s to a t.

I am Wlad's fan from day one and I've watched (and rewatehced all his fights). I also followed Fury from the first Chisora fight. Fury improved impressively.

I really see this as 50:50 fight. I think Fury from Chisora fight beats Wlad from Jennings fight. This is potentially Lennox(Wlad)-Vitali(Fury) if you know what I mean..
