    Could Tyson Fury have won against David Haye had he not been injured?

    At the time I said Haye would have wasted Fury.

    I also said the only reason Fury was still relevant as a HW top contender was because he was lucky Haye pulled out.

    The evidence at the time certainly overwhelmingly pointed that way.

    OF course things changed.

    OBviously the 40 year old Wladimir beat was way off game, 18 landed power shots all fight long. Is he shot? Did he just have a bad night?

    Whatever the reason for Wlad's dismal performance, the fact remains that Fury was much better than both detractors and skeptics gave him credit for.

    If not for the quality of Fury, he would not have been able to capitalise on Wladimir regardless!

    So what if he had Haye? Fury appears to be much better at utilising his range and girth than given credit for. He is fast and mobile for his weight, accurate and well timed with the jab.

    At a mere 6'3" and 215lbs, Haye, although possibly the fastest and most agile HW of all time and backed by crunching power to boot, the bridge that that speed had to pass would have been massive given Fury's now displayed qualities.

    It would not be so easy for Haye to have got in and out on Fury as formerly predicted.

    So what would have occurred?

    Thoughts?

    Does Haye waste the giant or does Fury do a number on an unsuspecting Haye as well?

    Fury would put Haye in an ambulance. He would consume his soul. Early stoppage.

      Haye would have flattened Fury, caught him early and knocked him down to the canvas but what would follow is a barrage of bombs that Fury would not be able to do anything about overall Haye stops him easily.
      Too bad that fight never got made when it could but I think that 0 in Tyson record is a bit fake If you followed his career you'd know John McDermot was the first man to take Fury to school and that was a washed up version of John.

        Haye would have decapitated him.

              Tyson Fury would have out-boxed and dominated the craven David Haye, and then stopped him in the mid-rounds.

              Fury improved tremendously after that. He didn't have Peter in his corner against Cunningham.

                Lol "injured"

                Conventional wisdom says Fury would win. But certain people using the same wisdom said that about clinchko too....

                    Hilarious considering that it's Wlad's go-to move to clinch, Fury prefers a phone booth fight, landing hooks and uppercuts inside.
