      adaptability

      size, chin, those sort of can't be changed things


      Only thing Fury can't be is smaller or tougher.

        Strengths.. Making Wilder look silly

        Weaknesses.. Agreeing to keep fighting Wilder

        On a serious note, he's starting to adapt to situations pretty well since moving to new camp.. his brain and ability to churn out a result in the unlikeliest of circumstances..

        Can get caught too much for me. A better, clinical boxer in times he's been caught in I think would finish the fight. But we haven't seen it yet as proof.

          He is huge and strong and fast for such a big man. He is a smart boxer and a better than average puncher. His chin is OK but it could be better and his stamina is ok but it could be better. His punch per round average is on the low side. Just my honest opinion and answer to your question.

            Weakness: Counter punching is non existent, lacking of technique in his punches, combinations are nonexistent.

            Strengths: Speed, Size, Skill, good gas tank.

              Advantages

              Size & Strength
              Footwork and movement
              Insane ring IQ & heart
              Excellent powers of recovery
              Great stamina

              Disadvantages

              Sometimes gets untidy and is prone to smother his own work
              Punches sometimes lack crispness & technique, needs to punch straighter.
              Fights to the level of his opposition.

                Strengths: Crazy height and reach combined with speed and footwork. This and his upper body movement and herky jerky style means he’s very hard to outbox at range.

                He can also fight inside, is adaptable and recovers well when rocked. Also has a great engine and metal toughness.

                Weaknesses: Can fight at level of opposition and often looks average when fighting crappy opponents. He has an average chin and average power.

                  Tyson’s abilities to see or know punches are coming before they are thrown . He can do this because he utilizes his height and can see how one shifts their body is his best factor imop. Then you have to get by a 85 inch reach that is thrown at you a lot and if you do ,you have to be either really fast or tall to land it unless you catch him flat footed .


                  His weaknesses are he seems to be sloppy in spots and does have openings that the right fighter hasn’t taken advantage of yet but enough pressure on him with using body shots could make it a difficult fight for him . He doesn’t have many weaknesses even on the inside he’s a giant who’s well rounded who mixes it up good with both hands and switches stances so the majority of guys are going to struggle.


                  Adding up his strength and weaknesses all amounts to get a win you”re probably going to have to be a power puncher and have some skill with that unless you are of exceptional talent and aren’t that tall which I don’t see anyone currently below a 6”3 mark to do it so the entire package requires a specific fighter to pull it off .

                    Strengths. Making people believe he is the lineal champion when he is not. Kissing men before and after fights. Taking steroids and getting people to look the other way with mental health excuses. Somehow being the number one heavyweight after fighting Schwarz, Wallin and Wilder. Avoiding mandatory fights before he even defends a belt. Aligning himself with a mafia boss who is on the run. Being on the run himself from the UKAD and BBBoC. Getting you idiots to believe that he donated his entire purse to charity.

                    Weaknesses. No weaknesses apparently to a lot of you. He is somehow the perfect fighter hahahaha.

                    Man, I cannot wait until this fraud gets KOed within the next year or so. All of his fans on here will scatter like Wilder fans have
