Right now, he loses to Povetkin and the Klitchskos.

I think Haye is a tough ask, but he's getting better, as Haye gets worse. A summer fight at the 02 against a ring rusty Haye could be just the ticket.
Fury would knock the shit out of Povetkin in my opinion. I would put my money on Fury, as for Haye, he is getting older not worse but in a couple of years Fury should take Haye.
I'm Fury's #1 fan, but Povetkin is just too savy a fighter for Fury.
He is too short and he gets hit too much. His title reign has been absolutely awful. I bet
Audley gets the call from Povetkins people soon. That would be a fun fight.

His reign has been poor, but he's a very skilled fighter and Fury ain't. Size ain't as important as class.

Fury has size, has speed and can do 12 rounds and is durable and in my opinion can take Povetkin's power - if Povetkin can get anywhere near him that is - there you go folks - a prediction for the
future! :TU: Povetkin has been found wanting as 'world' heavyweight champion.

Fury will be a world champion, but it won't be by beating Povetkin. ANyway, don't listen to me, I'm picking Povetkin to beat Wlad. :oops: :bag: :TU:

Well not particularly...Pulev is good but he's not a huge puncher and Fury has improved tremendously of late. I give him a good chance in that fight.

I don't think Povetkin will go six rounds with Wlad, and I'm not one for blowing smoke up Wlad's ass, in a manner of speaking!

Povetkin's fight vs Huck told me all I need to know about what Povetkin has left at the elite level in my opinion, not a whole lot......

I think Pulev is the best heavyweight prospect who is at top 20/25 level right now. I'd pick him over Fury, Mitchell, Price, Helenius and Povetkin tomorrow.

He's as tough as old boots, well schooled, has a solid work rate, is patient and willing to take time to break a man down, has good amatuer pedigree and a very decent chin. He's no midget at 6'4 either

The recent results for price and harrison have done nothing to change my view on this.

I want to see fury vs price.
