Comments Thread For: Fury: Wladimir Was Over Hill With Me, Prime With Joshua

[WallabeeKing]

Klitschko was a -1000 to -800 favorite, and I got Fury at +600.

Writer making odds up.

Well, there's a reason why you ducked the rematch twice.

When Fury fought Wlad - Wlad wasn't motivated because he thought it was business as usual. Only for the awkward galloping kangaroo called "Fury" to turn it into a stinker with less than 150 punches thrown combined in 12 rds.

The hungry Wlad who was making a last stand that fought AJ would've destroyed Fury. Fury knows, hence he ran from the rematch.

That was one of the most boring fights in HW history.

Nobody rewatches that

Fat Fury the Gypsy Queen just needs some attention, poor guy trying so hard to sell his bum fight.

It was one of the worst

Klitschko looked like he was under a ***** spell unable to let his hands go

That and he failed a drug test .... people conveniently forget that

With Fury they didn't forget, they choose to ignore it whenever it's brought up and pray that those who do remember and those who do bring it up forget.

I haven't forgotten that he and Hughie tested for nandrolone. A lot of us haven't forgotten that Tyson lost to John Mcdermott in their first fight. Some of us even remember Hughie Fury gassing badly against Fred Kassi and about to be knocked out before an 'accidental' head clash where the referee went to Hughie in his corner and asked him if he wants to continue, and that should he choose to stop the fight he will win on points (blatant corruption and hometown favouritism - I seem to recall the Fury family being on friendly terms with the ref that gave Tyson the John Mcdermott win as well)

Fair's fair, Povetkin, Ortiz, Miller etc. get torn to shreds but Mr Mental Illness, 'hero of the people' Tyson Fury also tested positive and he promptly shuts down any reporter that even mentions PEDs. Also, BJS gets off pretty easy too come to think of it.

Truth !!

Dill is getting smashed (deserved if proven guilty) when these proven kents are getting praised and a pass .

Canelo is a prime example

Wlad was going through mental hardships when he fought this roided gypo, and yeah he was already past prime at that point

Wlad's wife, hayden panetierre, was going through post partum depression. Shallow ***** couldn't stand the fact she was losing her hot body, couldn't stand the responsibilities of motherhood, she missed fame and the glamour of hollywood so much...Wlad's marriage was shattering at the time (it's finally shattered nowadays), so he was distracted, absent minded when he fought the PED-fueled Fury, Wlad didn't even try to win.. he only remembered he was the champ and cared about winning in the last round, and gave Fury trouble but it was too late

Wlad was definetly a better version of himself against Joshua. This was a focused Wlad, still old and out of prime, but one who cared about winning from the start.

anyway, a focused, prime Wlad would have trashed both Fury and Joshua

prime Vitali too

The Klitschkos were the last truly great HWs we had...now the belts have been taken over by chumps

I thoroughly enjoyed it live... but yeah, not one i've ever gone back to

Very much like the Wilder fight, only without the drama...

[miniq]

Wlad knew if he tried to unload on Fury he would have missed and then gassed out or got countered badly.

Fury never set himself once to let Wlad get in position and Wlad was always 1 step behind the elusive Fury. Wilder had the same issues but Fury tired late and actually was setting himself in front of wilder but out of range for most of the fight, where as with Wlad he was moving all over the damn shop. it was glorious.

He's a big stiff clinching overrated midget smasher, just like AJ...well better than AJ really because AJ still hasn't got the art of fighting as a big stiff idiot down like Wlad did.

If tried harder he would have got stopped late on weary legs, even after throwing 5 punches a round in round 11 Wlad was blown out, amazing really.
