This is true , Fury literally needs 3 more years just to get where he needs to be . Certain fighters are going to make him look good , Parker is one of them bc his accuracy is poor ,its actually terrible at times .
It would have been a carefully selection of opposition for a good minute under Peter . I highly doubt he sees such a chance to win a major title again ,too much competition now and on the way with some bruising technical punchers .Comment

I dont think so. Sexton is a decent domestic level operator, but he doesnt have the tools to Close the distance fast enough on Fury. I also dont think he can handle Furys clinch tactics. Neither Parker nor Rudenko were able to get effective work done against Fury.
Fury is very good at fighting at his pace and using Spoiler tactics to prevent his opponents to get into rhythm.
Sexton is very Basic, doesnt have the footspeed and footwork to get inside effectively. He also doesnt have the inside fighting skills, to fight out of a clinch.
So it will be the same as most of furys fights. Fury works the jab over and over. Sometimes throws the right, but doesnt want to engage. Sexton tries to get work done, but gets tied up whenever he is close enough.
The only interesting factor is, if Fury learned from the Parker fight and starts to put some power in his punches instead of just touch and move.Comment
