Anyone watching Klitschko V Fury?

[local hero]

I wouldn`t watch those 2 bums fight again if they paid me to.


Shitty Fight Of Peace

Did you see the James de gale bill, there was a great fight on the under card, young black hopefull v a Mexican, Mexican got dropped in the 1st round, then he beat the fuck out of the prospect for the next 8 rounds till he gave up, brutal fight

That Mexican has completely derailed the big money plans
They had for the New Black Wonder Boxer.

Will be interesting to see how they fix his career back on track.
Probably Like Amir Khan Don't let him fight anyone who can
Hit Hard & No Hungry Up & Comers.

Now that was a great fight!


Vargas......tough bastard.

Unless he comes out slugging (which he wont) he will loose again.

Im a fan of the Klitschkos. I will watch this fight in hope that Wlad gets off his ass and lands a few bombs on that pikey.
If he would just let rip he would have finished the fight quickly. Last round he finally decided to throw some punches and he rocked him quite easily. Fury doesn't punch - he slaps. He has no style or technique. He is just an overgrown ape.

It depends how much Wlad has left. His legs looked shot on Saturday.
If he just throws caution to the wind in a final hurrah, then he could take Fury out within 3 rounds.
However, I think the rematch might end up being similar to the first fight. I just think Wlad's age has caught up with him.

I don't know. You may be correct. I still think he has enough in the tank to take out Fury with ease. Its just how he goes about it. I can't stand Fury. If not Wlad Id love to see Anthony Joshua box the head off Fury

Athletes can deteriorate very quickly once they hit their late 30's. Wlad's looked poor this year against both Jennings and Fury. I've been a fan of Wlad since I watched him destroy Mercer and consider him one of the best boxer-punchers in boxing. However, it's clear to me that his time is almost over.
I actually like Fury though. He seems like a fun guy and his boxing ability is underrated. Despite his lumbering style, he actually moves quite quickly around the ring, has fast hands, can throw decent combos, can switch from orthodox to southpaw effortlessly, a sharp jab, respectable power and tons of heart.
Joshua is still unproven. He has the tools for sure, but hasn't really fought anyone other than journeymen yet.

Agree with all of that..except Furys power. Anthony Joshua looks like a good prospect. To be fair there isn't many others coming up in the HW division.
I don't think Fury has the big knockout power. He is fast for a big guy but I think he can be a bit clumsy and his chin has proved to be a weak spot.

I don't think that Wlad has deteriorated as much as it would seem...I think he has just become complacent and hasn't really pushed a fight for quite a while. I agree about Jennings..he should have mauled him inside of 3 rounds but didn't.

Fury doesn't have KO power but he does have respectable power - in the sense that he does throw a lot of weight behind his big shots so I don't think anyone can walk through his punches and not get hurt by them.

When will Darren Aveys mate be taking over the heavyweight division?

Any day now.

What was his name again? James Mcsweeney wasn't it?

Fury didn't fight..He ran and danced for 12 rounds....What a bum....

This..No one should be proud of that fight.
Klitschko was afraid to let rip and Fury just dance and barely landed a few shitty shots.
Hopefully bout 2 will have something to look at.

If Wlad had just gone after him like he did in the 12th it would have been good night nurse by round 4 or 5

Wlad has nothing to lose now. He just needs to go for broke in the rematch and come out swinging. He might have won his titles by being ultra cautious but that approach won't work with Fury.

Correct. He has been afraid to get hit since the losses to Brewster and Sanders. To be fair Sanders had deadly hands and the hardest head in boxing.

I don't think Fury has the punching power of a Sanders (or Brewster for that matter) so I don't think he has to worry too much about being knocked out by a punch.
What could happen is if he comes out swinging and punches himself out - thats it he is dead in the water. Reminds me of Frank Bruno when that happens - just stands there with hands down and mouth open waiting to get hit.
