      People saying Fury doesn't hit hard don't understand how size in boxing works....when a 6'9, 260lb man hits you as fast as fury does it doesn't need to be explosive or a k.o punch the sheer weight of it is like being hit with a ram rod and that type of punch can break you down over 12 rounds.

      People don't understand how utterly insane it is for someone the size of Fury to move and punch as fast as he does.

      That's not to say Deontay can't knock him out, he clearly can but think about fighters like Hopkins, he fought punchers who if they landed could have knocked him out all the time and he'd win with ease because he was fast, slick and smart enough to take that punch away from his opponents.

      This is what Fury needs to di just box simply with jabs, occasional 1-2s whilst avoiding the dynamite.

        All true. But Hopkins was also dirty as hell most of the time. Winky wright who moved up in weight said that every time the ref was on the wrong side, BHop either hit him in the balls or headbutted him.

          ... Lennox Lewis is the one who actually broke the "lineage" at HW...

            They got Michael MF'n Spinks to come out of hiding and do a public interview. Wow.
