You've clearly only looked at the result. He didn't hurt Pulev at all. It WAS a knockdown but it was down to foot placement, it was not a hurtful shot. Pulev battered him from start to finish. Fury was shook momentarily a couple of times, Pulev wasn't shook once.
@mrbishi, couldn't agree more. Chambers is really good as a pundit.

Indeed, I can only see that fight finishing one way, a WK right hand. Could be fun more while it lasts than the Povetkin Mormeck type affairs.

steps up where?? the heavyweight wilderness? The consensus seems to be that Wlad is the only good "champion material" out there. Cunningham was a competent, seasoned, world level operator, just too small. Hence Tyson beat him. Fury will be World Champ one day, imo.
Pulev would beat Fury if they fought and then you have Wilder, Jennings and other names out there.

Wilder the windmill vs. a gypo fighter who's been at since he could walk? Absolute no contest.

I think Arreola and Stiverne would have an easy nights work against Fury.

You were saying Fury was shit a week or so ago and that Usain Bolt would beat him with 6 months training!
Maybe so, but he still got the job done. I hope Fury makes the most of the talent he has, if he does he will go very very far.
He seems to be motivated based on the opponent he is facing. It must've been a kick in the nuts to be shafted by the toe twice. 2 Paydays gone.[/quote]
Haye probably would of knocked him out even quicker.[/quote]
Haye didn't fancy it
Booth said Fury would beat Price
