Re: Tyson Fury
I'd forget about Chisora in the rematch, he was just on one of his shit days when he wanted to be anyone else, or anywhere else other than Derek Chisora in a boxing ring.
There is no doubt in my mind that Fury has less power than Haye and I think I did say I wouldn't be amazed if Haye did indeed spark Fury.
I just think that this version of Haye is a shadow of prime Haye. Last night proved nothing. The Aussie was not much better than a punch-bag. We can't tell anything about his power, his timing, fitness or his shoulder because the Aussie was so gash.
In his prime, Haye would have done Fury. If they had fought when they were meant to, Haye would have done him. But Fury has improved. Not sure Haye has.
The one thing I do know for certain, is if Haye and Fury called me and asked me to go for a pint, I'd be going for a drink with Tyson. Haye's turned into a bell end. I liked him when he turned over. Think he's a tool now.

Re: Tyson Fury
Fury is just coming into his prime years and Haye is past his, he's heavier, slower and been out of action for nearly 4 years, it doesn't look good for Haye if they do meet, he's always got the power but I think Fury's team will get the tactics right like they did against the big Klit and just nullify anything that Haye can give?

I still think Ortiz would do him though.
And think Klit will do him in the rematch. But then Klit will retire and Fury will box on.

Re: Tyson Fury
If you watch the stoppage vs Duhaupas, his feet leave the ground in every one of the last 4 shots he throws, it's painful to watch, I remember notice how his technique went awol when he had the mighty A-force hurtFrozenMixedVegtables wrote:Wilder is shockingly bad at boxing for a world champion . Fury would embarrass Wilder. Give him an absolute schooling. You get mongs saying Wilder is athletic and Fury is ungainly when Fury is a far better mover than Wilder. Wilder has garbage footwork and he's clumsy as hell. He's nothing more than a windmill with a hard punch. People probably think he's a good boxer because he has the black and slick look.

Re: Tyson Fury
I am with you on this, Fury needs to grow up and his fans need to stop making excuses for him. Pantomime, WWE no, my words for him are that hes disgusting and a disgrace. I really do hope Klitschko knocks the c**t out next time. Wilder would do a job on him if he gets the chance.thechump wrote:At the end if the day playing up to pantomine antics or not that was effin embarrassing,wilder just had a fight and was being interviewed why did this clown have to do all this? effing idiot, wilder will splat him like an annoying fly

Re: Tyson Fury
I think both Fury and Wilder have pretty shocking technique, and if it wasn't for their size, they'd not be where they are. Granted both men move well for big men, and are quick, but the punching technique of both is very amateurish.
I'd give Wilder a good chance against Fury, as wild as he is, he has genuine power, and he throws a lot of punches, and aggressive.
Fury would need different tactics to those he used against Klit to prevail.

Re: Tyson Fury
I agree with all of that. I have noticed and I don't know if you have. Wilder does this thing now and again, which I think is subconscious, where he straightens on of his legs and looks off balance. This isn't when he has been punched, just when he's moving about and sometimes before he gets into position.jamesmcdonnell wrote:I think both Fury and Wilder have pretty shocking technique, and if it wasn't for their size, they'd not be where they are.

I can't see Froch legging it, he's game enough. I can remember reading about Jason Rowland squaring up to Clifton Mitchell over something or other - some people are just game to the core.

Re: Tyson Fury
Yes, that's one of the things that constantly amazes me, that people cannot see the disadvantages of being so big. Higher centre of gravity, longer levers, it all generates inertia, and forces that have to be compensated for, and requires better footwork to maintain balance.CharlesListon wrote:Its actually hard being a tall hw.

I'd say Fury is better on his feet than Wilder, who does look off balance a lot of the time, I've not watched Wilder closely enough to notice the thing with his leg, but It's not surprising, he's pretty gangly, and rocks around when throwing his shots.
Lennox Lewis was pretty coordinated for a man of 6 foot 5, but he was hardly Wayne Sleep out there.

Tyson (Mike) was so proportionate that he was going to be a nightmare, there was nothing wasted with him. I'd rather be his build than Fury's build. It's so easy to look like an oaf or clumsy at that height.
Ali was perfectly proportioned. From a distance you'd never have known he was 6'3''ish.

Funny I was thinking about Tyson - was watching a video of him at 16, and it was scary, the power in his frame was quite incredible, and the speed, though his overall career was rather a letdown in some respects, I still say the younger Tyson would have given anyone trouble, even the very best. I can well see the likes of Ali having to overcome some very sticky early moments before he was able to establish distance and a rhythm, as Mike was very hard to hit at his best and lightning quick.
Anyone who would pick Wlad or Fury to beat Mike is mad in my book, he'd have dipped under the jab, and been on them like white on rice. They'd have been bludgeoned senseless on the inside very quickly indeed.
I'd have picked a peak Tyson over any version of Lewis too, it's just that peak Tyson didn't last very long before it went downhill.
