People forget that Fury was an underdog vs Haye and Klitschko because not only had he gotten dropped hard by Cunningham and Pavjec, but he was buckled badly by journeyman Nicolai Firtha as well. Chisora in their first fight also had him a little rocky. And none of those guys except arguably Firtha are very hard punchers.

Yes Wilder has one punch KO power but he's always been one of the sloppiest finishers in boxing and it showed vs Fury. Honestly he looks like he's doing Backyard Brawl fighting when he goes to load up on a hurt guy, it's almost embarassing to watch.
Sorry. He never fought Haye. Didn’t happen.

I know he didn't fight Haye; I'm talking about after the fight was signed; Haye was the bookie favorite until the cancellation.

7. Under 7 doesn't survive Wilder. I don't think Cunningham really hurt him too badly.

7 too high i think, 7s shouldnt be dropped by lighter hitters llike pajkic, cunningham, and usyk. fury was also hurt by light hitting wallin. ya wilder didnt finish him but he dropped him repeatedly. fury surviving is a testament more to his recovery than his chin

the best chin displays vs wider were stiverne in the first fight and duhaupas
