    I don't think Wladcan change his style. He got used to winning that way, and now he is gonna have to change... Old dog new tricks.

    When Lennox lost, it was because he got caught with good shots.

    Wlad is gonna have to catch fury with a big shot.

    It is gonna be tough to find sparing partners as big as fury, etc.

    But, Wlad might have gotten the wake up call he needed.

    Let's see.

    I believe fury wins again.

      Wlad will drag this out for about a year. He will fake an injury then reschedule for sometime around November in the hopes that Fury loses his edge and gets frustrated and doesnt train hard not believing the fight will happen.

        If he comes out aggressive, it's certainly possible he stops Fury. Thing is, Fury will expect that and if Wlad doesn't get that early KO, he will be gassed by the 5th and might be stopped himself.

        There are reasons why Wlad started fighting the way he does, and a big reason is he can't sustain an active pace. That's certainly not going to change at his age unless he juices hardcore.

          ... and if he can land a few of those thrown, he wins... with the emphasis on "if"

            Can Wlad change the way he fights ? I don't know

            Fury had his number and has his number still. I would be happy if I could believe that wlad could Change his fighting tactics. I like Wladimir. He's gotten so used to his Punch-and-hold style of boxing in the last 10 or so years that I doubt the results of the rematch will be very much different. I don't think tyson has the skills to KO wlad (despite wlad's doubtable chin), but wlad won't be able to get on inside unless he starts to train for now. Game-as-usual Training camp won't do it for wlad I'm sorry to say.

              Yeah plenty of good reasons to back Fury again this time round, well noted.

              Smart money is still on Klitschko.

              This time though I think it's more 75% Wlad, 25% Fury.

                Klitschko is 39, he should rematch Fury as soon as possible. If he drags it out it could backfire on him.

                  Wlad will never beat Tyson Fury as long as he's got a hole in his arse. Fury is too good.

                    'Pacquaio should have won' - Holyfield on Mayweather vs Pacquaio.



                    That's about as much credibility this crackhead has nowadays.

I'm not picking Wlad after his last two fights though as I thinkhe's mentally done with the game. If he comes in like he did with Pulev, he'll KO Fury. I just don't think his mind is in that place anymore.

                      Agree that Fury's output was next to nothing. How many times did he even put a fluid one-two together over the course of the fight? But the problem is even though it would have taken so little to win most of the first six rounds, Wlad's caution is so hard-wired that it's hard to see him actually doing it. He has spent so long smothering his opponent to avoid pocket exchanges that he can't press the action now that he needs to.

                      Fury is hittable, a little clumsy, and not all that sharp of a puncher. But his feet and sense of distance are good and he will force Wlad to reach and take risks to get to him. I just don't know if Wlad has it in him to do that.
