[1hourRun]

Bonte is mad: fight of 2016! GTFO we know what we saw.. horrible...just hate thinking about the rematch -- I would not blame HBO if they did not pick this fight up and spend Money on something else.

schooling

is that what they're calling a fight where you can count the clean punches on one hand?

I gave Wlad the 12th, he just about managed to avoid a shutout. Fury took away his weapons and make him a nervous wreck. Schooled.

I'm gald he's taking the rematch. The fight ****** of course, but i don't want to see a guy who's been champion so long just give up his title in such a fashion.

That said, i don't know what he does differently in a rematch. He knows Fury can beat him on points now, so he will have to open up more and earlier..something he doesn't like to do.

We might get to see Wlad's old style, before Steward. Where he was more of a fighter and not a clincher

wladimir does not need money. when you've been on top for such a long time there's going to be a tendency to feel liek the first guy who beat you was a fluke.

it wasn't a fluke. wladimir couldn't pull the trigger on his right hand. he was pawing and giving looks with the jab to try and set up f#cking clinches! clinches! on a guy with longer arms and a height advantage!

it's done, wladimir. it's done. i'm envisiioning the HW championship switching hands regularly. i think wilder's a bad stle for fury. i think povetkin's a bad style for wilder. i'm not sold on joshua yet, but he's certainly got enough power, and will be willing to throw it.

As long it happens the right way (ie the best fighting, winning and losing to the best) that is going to be great for the division.

This next gen could have an exciting mix of power punchers, big personalities, hype and evenly matched competition.

T.Fury/Wilder/Povetkin/Jennings/Joshua/Parker are all good fighters and have or will have the potential to beat each other.

Potentially: H. Fury/Dillian Whyte/ Usyk and other lowkey guys who most likely havent got much traction yet could be wild cards.

I have high hopes. Most likely I will be disappointed

If Wlad cant re-learn to box and punch on the move I dont see much changing.

Problem is when he used to do that, he used to get knocked out on the regs.

If Wladimir decides to abandon his gameplan which he's used so effectively for over 10 years (something which i don't think he can do now) then he'll be absolutely gassed by midway through the fight and he'll get knocked out. He's never had a good tank, hence him having to lean and grab his opponents to catch a rest.

He's done for.

[b00g13man]

Oh well. Not sure he can do anything different, but we'll see. I probably won't waste my time watching it live because I expect another really dull fight.

Hard to imagine Wlad taking risks but we can hope.

This kid will be very good.

This kid will be very good.

No doubt. Only reason he is on the second tier for me at the moment is because he is a CW.
