    "Good technique" is ultimately just whatever works. Fury's technique might not be the most sharp or concussive, which explains his relatively low ratio of stoppages, but it's awkward and keeps the opponent off balance without giving them a clear angle of attack. Both landed at a low rate and percentage in the Klitschko fight, but especially Klitschko because Fury's janky, arythmic hand movements and constant foot movement weren't giving him have any clear opportunities to punch. Not the prettiest way to win, sure, but valid and effective enough to deliver him a clear points win away in Germany, no mean feat.

    It's kind of similar to how there are obvious flaws in Wilder's technique, but he exploits the unique aspects of it alongside his physical attributes to make it work, giving him something that's effective but also hard to prepare for. Similar kind of story here.

        This.... ⬆️

        As long as Fury can get back to the level he was against Wlad, (which I’m extremely skeptical about) both AJ and Wilder would struggle MASSIVELY against Fury stylistically.

          Wilder vs. Fury. Winner is P4P #1.

            Well said. I've always looked at Fury as totally unique for a HW, can do everything well really and has the best movement and range in the HW division by miles, the best boxer/mover in the division and can fight out of both stances well. Wilder is unique as well, looks terrible at times but his height, range and ring coverage, angles, speed etc are totally unique, he can hit you from anywhere and if he lands clean he just goes bananas trying to finish you (see my sig)

            You can't prepare for Fury or Wilder, whereas Joshua is much easier to read, you know what he will do (even though he is extremely effective at what he does)

                  Wasn't Larry one of the many, many so called boxing experts on NSB to predict that Wlad would spark him in 30 seconds?

                  Fury is the best fighter in the division and you'll soon see why.

                    Well said. Ask anyone who's been in the ring with Tyson and they'll tell you the same, his style is a complete nightmare to deal with. There's a reason why all the professionals rate him so highly, and they know a lot more about boxing than 99% of the keyboard fighters on here.

                      His height and movement are the keys to his style. Before the Klitschko fight, he was in the ring with Johnny Nelson and was asked how to beat Wlad.... he basically just said, "easy, just need to lean back, how will he hit me?" lol his leaning back, movement, feints and distance control meant Wlad would have to take risks to get in range and throw punches..... he wasn't able or willing to do that due to his cautious style.

                      I honestly don't believe there's a boxer who can hang with him boxing at distance.... that's not to say you have to win rounds to beat him (Wilder and Joshua could land and finish him) but they will NOT outbox him, no chance.
