Comments Thread For: Fury: No Need to Mention Wilder Since I Beat Klitschko

[Phatfarm1980]

I think Fury could have got a KO over Klitschko last night if he went for it. Wlad was petrified in there!

[NEETzsche]

wilder needs to get past povetkin first

i hope he does because fury-wilder is a dream fight

[Robbie Barrett]

Wilder becoming undisputed would be terrible for the sport, look at the garbage he's cherry picking.

[mjgaz6]

Both fighters should apologize for their disgraceful performances. Win or lose...there is nothing worse in boxing than a guy who runs his mouth before the fight saying how he is going to KO the other guy and then gets in the ring and doesn't even try to back up his words.

At least Wilder actually tries to KO his opponents.

[BrometheusBob.]

The important thing that Tyson showed was that he can take a punch better than I thought and he moves his head better than I thought...

Wlad isn't the same fighter when he can't jab and clinch all night...he fought a bigger guy who took away his jab..the clinching obviously never ends with Wlad and it's a disgrace to boxing that fighters are not DQ'd for clinching...

I think this loss completely diminishes Wlad's legacy... it shows that Wlad wins basically all on his height/weight advantage because it allows him to jab and clinch every opponent...

That being said Wilder is a different beast...Wilder actually has athleticism and real boxing ability...

I still think Wilder is the best heavyweight out there... but he's going to struggle more than Wlad did against common opponents because Wlad basically is all about style..he jabs and clinches smaller guys.. Wilder actually will have to out-skill the same opponents...

I think Wilder v. Pot and Wlad v. Fury 2 have to fight each other...

Wasn't Wach also taller than Klitschko (plus popped for roids)?

The no. 1 contender if he gets past povetkin

The operative statement, he won't get past him.

Wilder needs to step it up from the sub 40 ranked handpicked scrubs he's been fighting before he gets a sniff at a unification.

Haha i love that first GIF with Fury putting his hands behind is back, not for that, i'm wondering who that little smirk was directed at. Looks like it might be at the UK commentary team, they were sat around there and mentioned a few times Fury had looked at them.

Wasn't Wach also taller than Klitschko (plus popped for roids)?

Yeah. Actually Klitschko has fought a fair few tall guys and done well.

But fighting a tall guy who has better boxing skills than him like Fury is another task altogether.

Wlad never said Fury's size bothered him, he said the speed and movement of a man that size bothered him.

[ShoulderRoll]

Wilder is actually a bad style matchup for Fury, in my opinion.

But let's get the Klitschko rematch and the Povetkin mandatory out of the way first. Once the dust clears then we can see if we even have anything to talk about.

[ricodonjefe]

Fury vs Klitschko will fight 3 times both will get paid!!! Wilder still trying to find ways to step aside povetkin which Is 50/50 fight he needs to get past povetkin first earn yours!!!...Fury,Wladimir,Povetkin know wilder don't want to face threats he wants to fight 4tier oppennents..... Wilder has ko power but does not take risks and just talks ....
