Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury Expected Wladimir Klitschko Would Withdraw

[New England]

i really do think these HW stage fights / pressers and pull out intentionally. it keeps them fresh. haye used to do it pretty blatantly. that guy is astraight up con artist.



that said, i think this one sounds legit. wladimir is 250 lbs, and getting close to 40 years old.


his brother went through a stretch of 3+ years when he couldn't make it though a training camp.

i doubt its a doubt but its possible push back cause he wasnt looking good in camp or something. at end day tho all these fighters pulling out on fury u got start siding with him at some point no matter how ridiculous it seems

Hey if the fight doesn't happen I'll call it a duck, but Klits people already talked to Furys people for November 28th

Poor Fury always getting promised dates but then gets bamboozled. It is true, there is a damn trend going on here.

Have to remember he is 40 with 20yrs in the sport behind him, he is bound to pick up a lot of niggles. Just a minor calf strain that means pushing the fight back a few weeks its no big deal.

Shame, another bit of bad luck for Fury after the Haye situation(s).
Who knows, maybe it's a bit of mind games from Wlad.

The fight we go ahead as planned at a later date though i'm sure.

[Roberto Vasquez]

Anyone who has read MIke Tyson's biography will know this is a common psychological tactic used by trainers and boxers.

Fury exposed Wlad twice in the London press conference - once with the large padded gloves Wlad has insisted on both boxers using, and again when he pointed out he (Fury) had to fight 3 world title eliminators before Wlad finally agreed to fight him. Wlad does appear to be a bit scared here....

[Straightener]

Why would wlad be afraid of an inbred, half ******ed, gypsy? People are acting like fury is drago when his best win is chisora.

The same chisora wlad pulled another sicky on ??

You have to admit it's pretty pathetic

[Ravens Fan]

yes povetkin was a threat and what did he do to povetkin? held him 175 times

Sasha should be gratefully that Wlad fought the way he did. Because if he hadn't he would have really beat the snot out of him and stopped him.

[Sparked_26]

Fury would have fought with a calf strain.

[BattleAxePurist]

Clearly Wlad was petrified by Fury at the presser , tried to play it off coy then a day later he has a calf injury how convenient once you gaze into the eyes of the man who will usher your downfall survival tactics become salvation.
