Lol no offence but you don't know much about boxing.
The movement of Fury won the fight. It's tough to hit someone
who stays just outside of punching range or ducks his head
inside you left arm to avoid right hand.
The tomato cans Wilder and Joshua have been fighting wouldn't even be caught
in the same ring as Klitchko but magically in your fairy tale
fantasy boxing Wilder and Joshua are better than Fury and
Klitchko .

A bigger, taller, younger man with an unbeaten record beat an aging warrior. That is not an upset.

Tyson Fury may go down as the most skill-less champ of all time.

Bull..... When you are that damn tall, you are not going to look as athletic or as graceful as men much smaller.... But he does have skills, dont get it confused. If Klitschko wasnt a master at being a human octopus, his ass would have hit the canvas I am sure.

To win the rematch Wlad will have to take more risks to get past the distance that Fury's height and long arms , and mobility create, Wlad will have to be able to take more punishment more risks to unload on Fury with out falling into a clinch.
I don't know what Wlad worked on in the gym but to me, it seemed like he winged this one and was surprised that he wasn't able to walk right through Fury. He just looked so lost in the ring to me. Even to the way he was clinching in the fight. He was so used to being the taller guy and getting his opponent locked up by front headlock but he couldn't do that easily with Fury and i think he wasted a lot of energy doing that instead of locking him up under the armpit which would have saved him a lot of his wind. His ineffective clinching which he usually uses as a tool was the difference. You didn't see any of his quick 1-2 clinch move coming in. It was just ill timed from the start and everything looked awkward. I really do think that this fight was lost in the gym and they didn't prepare Wlad for a fight with a bigger man with movement. Pretty sad but it's the truth IMO. Unprepared and that's why he lost.
Wlad looked slower than heck in this fight like he was fighting in sludge..
