AUFC90 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 He might edge them, as Holyfield is now 57 & Tyson 53.Aye well you probably would need both of them together to stand half a chance. I'd love to see Mile Tyson trying to contend with that jab. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepundit Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Wilder just didn't have the technical ability to compete with Fury. As soon as Fury knocked him down in the third round that was it. His balance was off after that and it prevented him from putting any power into his "Equaliser". Fury was really making use of that extra weight gained also by leaning heavily on Wilder to tire him out. There's a clause for a trilogy but there won't be nearly as much interest in it and Wilder didn't win the first fight to justify it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUFC90 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Wilder won't want another fight. Like fury said a couple weeks ago, you beat a man twice...3rd time not ae bother. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm enjoying the re-writing of history on this, tbh. Wlad made a living from working the jab then when he was in close putting his weight on the opponent and tiring them out. He was a boring robot. Fury done it this morning and it was a boxing masterclass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUFC90 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Vlad was pretty pish compared to Fury but. Fury can box unlike the robot. He's just lucky a Fury didn't come along earlier.

lichtie23 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Just watched the full fight back on YouTube. Very impressive from Fury. Undoubtedly the best in the world just now. I think based on what I seen he would easily dispose of AJ. So graceful for a big man 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's just lucky a Fury didn't come along earlier. Wlad was a great boxer. He fought Fury at the age of 38 - an age Fury has said he'll be well retired before so that he doesn't become bait for young up and comers. Vitali retired at the right time and is the superior of the two brothers. Fury can now rank himself alongside the likes of those and other greats. In the past, I've massively doubted him but over his 2 fights against Wilder, he's been a genius in the ring and shown heart that not many can do. He is clearly the best in the world right now. Wilder vs Fury III makes sense for the American audience and I've no doubt that Wilder will blame this loss on the ear drum eventually and they'll be able to build the hype for it again. Joshua vs Fury is the dream match and we can only hope the mandatory challenger stuff doesn't stop the ultimate unification fight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Haye is his best win and like you say he wasn't even the best in his own household. I rate Vitali far higher than Vladimir. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilder is just not a very good boxer. 3. AJ is, and will remain, a total shire bag and will avoid Fury. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUFC90 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Sober up son.Klitch has had losses against absolute jobbers. The Gypsy King hasn't been beat a fight yet. Not a single dodgy decision or anything, he's bested them all including Vlad with his trampoline ring. Vlad was lucky that he only needed to contend with the David Hayes and Chisoras of this world. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUFC90 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 At least Vitali almost beat "The Man". Vlad ? Not so much. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt he’s a very good boxer, I don’t dispute that, but I think it’s to early to call him a ‘great’ mate.

I’ve clearly got a different definition of a great from you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
