    Great upset. But was Klit vs Fury a great heavyweight fight?

    Did you think this was fought at a high technical level? How about in terms of action and excitement -- do you feel it stacks up compared to some of the classic heavyweight battles of the past?

    Crappy fight as usual. Normally Fury fights are more exciting, but we all know who he was fighting yesterday.

      It was not a great heavyweight fight. Fury had a masterplan though and executed it.

      The last great HW championship fight is still Lennox-Vitali.

        These are my thoughts exactly, word for word.

          Well, at least it was entertaining and funny.

            I was knocked out in the third; thankfully snapped out of it in the 9th to finish the fight.

            I thought it was brutal; plus yesterday was the last bit of leftovers I had from Thanksgiving, so i'll blame that too.

              It was a garbage match

              both fighters looked sloppy as hell

              the difference was Fury was actually interested on winning it

                I think it was a good fight because of the upset. I was expecting Wlad to pretty much dismantle Fury over 8-12 rounds, or could even imagine a KO by 6th or so. But the surprise of watching what happened was pretty entertaining and exciting.

                  It was a Wlad fight, that's all you should need to know.

                    It definitely was a fight known more for the outcome but at least Fury did his part while Wlad, well, was Wlad. Fury's trash talk played out like a script....
