Comments Thread For: Klitschko in Disbelief: Never Believed Fury Would Do It

[Cinci Champ]

Klitschko thought Tyson Fury was fast? He can imagine what Mike Tyson in his early 20s would've done with his speed.

tyson is extremely fast key words for his size its called context. tyson fury is a weird style hes one those styles that dont look like much but they are

I shocked the world by calling this fight exactly to the T. Wlad has no chance and needs to retire.

I agree. When I was kid I had the privledge of watching Holmes Vs Norton. Rounds 13 14 and 15 epitimized why boxing was the greatest sport. Everything was on the line and they brought it. At the highest skill level I might add. Hopefully Wilder can bring it that back.

Thanks Chirorickyp. Forward to 51.30 for those who want to see the great action from this fight from round 13. Definitely worth watching, complete contrast to today's fight.

Good win for Fury. I thought it was won in a similar way to how Klitschko beat David Haye in being the bigger man using reach, movement and feints to stop the smaller puncher from committing to anything. I also like how he took advantage of Wladmir's willingness to clinch because everything he came in on the attack Fury would duck low and then Klitschko would do nothing more than go for a headlock, they break and then Fury would spend another minute or two piling up more shots on the outside. Tyson was dirty in this fight. At least two of the cuts came off Fury’s head and he got a point deducted for rabbit shots. Overall he made it a very rough and unorthodox fight for a champion who likes to be the bigger, stronger technician who gets his own way. He was outreached and outhussled and wasn't shown anything that he could predict and formulate a plan against.

Say what you like about Fury.....we all know he has a lot of faults, but name me another heavyweight who can sell a fight like him, use as much upper body movement, change fighting styles from fight to fight and switch from right to left mid fight.........or sing after the bout......you've got to admit that now he has backed it up he is actually something quite special

Still, I've always thought he was beatable and looks like a KO waiting to happen and this hasn't changed (unless he continues this level of head movevent).

There's gonna be a rematch? Wow I can't wait. Heavyweight Foxy Boxing Championship of the World. Seriously I've seen more solid punches landed on The Jerry Springer Show.

Sorry for you who is used to 100 slaps/round of welterweights. One solid shot landed from a 120-kg man means end of the fight or reverse of fight momentum, it should be calculated and worked for.

Man, people can't read? He did not disrespect Fury at all. I hope you are all being sarcastic. He said he was prepared for this fight but Fury was too fast, and he did not expect that. Light bannings should be given out to those who refuse to read articles and only comment on the headline. It clogs up the threads with ****** answers and makes the site look dumb to outside readers who may also read the comments.

And you've repeated it a thousand times. Give it a rest.

Klitschko has been terrible for years now, relying on pushing down on his opponents' heads, holding and hitting. Got away with it for entirely too long.
Overrated. Fury was too tall for him to do it and too fast for him not to get punished for trying it.
lOnce again, he was overrated.
