Pretty much. I have no doubt in my mind that this is Douglas and Rahman all over again. And I'll be glad, because I still want to see how Wladimir fares (as champ) against the current crop of HW superstars like Joshua, Wilder, and the other contenders.
I like the way Klitschko is talking, makes the fight a lot more interesting any way.
Got my tickets and everything booked for the big night. Klitschko will be surprised by the atmosphere in that arena. I can't see him doing better with Fury wearing his own gloves this time, never mind the ring not being a sponge
If Wlad has anything left he stands at least a 50/50 chance with throwing more punches. The first fight was just a bunch of posturing up with no action. It looked like Wlad simply could not pull the trigger. Tyson's movement was more than I was expecting but he's no defensive genius and was in range for shots all the time. Wlad just couldn't do anything about it.
Wlad is 40 and if he manages to turn back Fury, he needs to retire on top like Vitali. I just don't think he can withstand Wilder, Parker or Joshua at this age.
I thought Wlad would have learn't by now...clearly he hasn't
Fury is going to beat him worse...
old man doing his swimming and cycling.
The truth is that they both looked like sh%t and you have no idea what's going to happen. Fury is setting himself up so that he doesn't commit suicide if he does lose the rematch.

also wlad has done better in all his rematches....vs Byrd, Peter, Brewster...he is a tactician and good technical fighter. Im sure he and his team broke things down.
Byrd, Peter, Brewster... all many years ago. And Wlad WAS a fairly good tactician... but it only worked because of his huge size advantage. A 220 lb 6' 1" Wlad would never have held the belt 10 years, assuming he'd have even won in the first place.
Fury may lose in his next 2-3 bouts, but it won't be to Klit IMO.
