When Wlad hurt Jousha, even before the knockdown...Jousha looked scared, he felt Wlads power and started backing off.
That invisibility factory vanished, i saw a man who was scared.
Once he tastes a heavy hand from Fury, he'll go on the retreat. Fury is not a HUGE puncher, but he keeps you honest and he has enough power to wobble you.
Jousha can't do what he did to Wlad to Fury, the size and height is the game changerComment

He didn't look scared, he fought with an appropriate level of respect. Wlad has huge power and both guys stood in range, being reckless in that situation would have been ******ity.
He dropped (4 times) and stopped a HW great who hadn't been stopped in over a decade, in his 19th fight.
He won't have tactics remotely like that against Fury, he will blitz him and take him out early. Those flicking shots and prancing around worked against Wlad who is adverse to risk and doesn't like to engage, Joshua will blast through him.Last edited by gmc_rfc_06; 04-29-2017, 06:26 PM.Comment

He looked scared, come on, but if you think he didnt, then fair enough
I got fit Fury winning a easy UD, it'll be a ugly fight, Jousha will get frustrated, a lot of holding.
Fury will just fight from range, Jousha will do all the chasing, walk into something, heavy and back off.
Jousha went for broke against Wlad, and nearly gassed himself out. Took him at least 3 rounds to get his bearings back, and lucky for him Wlad is old and throws one punch at a time.Comment

I pretty much agree, but also **** you, you ****.
I reckon this was a better version of Wlad than Tyson fought, but had the same version of Tyson fought this version of Wlad Tyson would have still won. He would have made Wlad look worse than Anthony did but that's got more to do with skill sets than skill caliber. AJ vs Fury is still a must see pick'em.
Tyson fights a beautiful big man game. He's uses his size a little differently than Wilder, but they are drawing from the same pool of techniques. Obviously Tyson's a little more concerned with getting hit so he likes to put himself in a position where he looks more vulnerable than he actually is that way he can lean back or at angle to elude punches and draw his opponent into a vulnerable position. Obviously at no point in this fight did AJ even attempt that style or formula. Obviously even on paper that shut's down quite a lot of Wlad's in and out game.
That doesn't mean it works against AJ or that it's superior than AJ's peekaboo style.
So, triangle theory, apples and oranges, Fury's good, AJ's good, Wlad's better than before, was a great night of boxing, and **** you for trying to take anything away from it....****Comment

Wlad lost to Fury because his whole game is based on using his reach and controlling distance.
Against a taller fury he couldn't reach him and Wlad can't fight inside at all.
Fury gives any version Wlad trouble.Comment

Wlad looked fine his legs looked good and he still has good looking punches when he lets his hands go. Still he is an aged version who just doesn't have the right aggression level to beat guys who he can't fight in his most comfortable way.
Wlad likes to fight perfectly if he can't land clean he won't let his hands go, or if he is going to take something back in return he won't let his hands go either. Against guys with similar range this become a big issue because there is no safe space for him to operate and guys that size are not easy to grapple up without taking a clean shot so he can easily get out hustled. Wlad did show he would still fight back when forced and did his best work of the fight in those moments until he drifted back into his usual method which allowed Joshua to really recuperate.
It was not the finest example of Wlad but he was in decent condition.Comment

LOL at this BS. All the cretins on here praising wlad like he had just fought a man in the prime of his career. No he didn't! Joshua is a green, 18 fight novice and look what he did to klitsko. How good is joshua gonna be in 3 years time?Comment
