Advantage over Wlad?

[danconnollyeire]

We all know the Klits are bigger than most and bully fat unagile fighters all day long. BUT Fury makes makes Wlad look like an average sized man, is getting fitters and more athletic. Could this give him the edge?

[lillywhite14]

No.

Wlad is better in every department.

That is a good picture though, makes a change to not see them towering above everyone else.

[Datsue]

Uh...




Didn't do Wach a whole lot of good, did it?

The steroids, OTOH, possibly did.

[dookus]

I think Fury's handspeed is not that far off Wlad's, and he throws more combinations. He likely has the edge in reach as well.

That said, for defence, footwork and power, Wlad is a loong way even ahead at this stage of his career

[loaded_gloves]

It's not necessary to be bigger than Wlad, a fighter needs to persistently attack him ala Brewster. Wlad wanted to employ his slow, low activity jab and hold-fest in that one but Brewster simply wouldn't let him. By the 4th the pace and aggression had turned WK to jelly.

It's ridiculous to picture Tyson Fury delivering such a performance.

You say that but wach is a bum and he still went the distance.
