    Let's Face It; Fury Is This Era's Buster Douglas...

    ...and at least Buster actually knocked his HOF opponent out.

    I like Tyson.

    But it is looking more and more like what he did was a one time fluke.

    Will he ever get back in decent enough shape to reclaim his lineal crown?

    I see what you're saying. There's parallels, but he's not on Buster Douglas level. Buster will always be remembered for beating a prime monster by being focused and unrelenting. Fury will be the guy who threw 8 punches a round to get a W against an aging champ who had become extremely gunshy. One fight will be re-watched for decades. The other ensures if you watched it once, you will never suffer through it again.

          Instead of Keith Thurman, they should call Fury "One Time"

          That's all he was good for

            Fury is the guy who takes all his money off the table and leaves in the middle of the gamble once he gets the big sum. Smart though

              Tyson Fury was way more skilled than Buster Douglas could ever be.
