Off Topic Tyson Fury v Wladimir Klitschko

If it's a scrap Tyson will get knocked out very early - If he has the stamina to move for the entire fight he will last to hear the points defeat. The only doubt in my mind is which wlad will turn up, as he's looked shot in his last 2 fights

 

To be honest I don't think Fury has the stamina to just jab and back off the entire 12 rounds. Wlad's age is something to consider, but age does bring experience (64 fights worth). If Wlad doesn't take his chances mid fight then he could just well get caught as tiredness creeps in. Fury last went the distance in 2012, Wlad has been the distance this year also in 2013 and 2012.

 

While Fury is clearly a bellend, he's got a point about Wlad being ****ing boring.

 

Not boring...methodical. Bit more to boxing than just laying into someone.

 

Absolutely, but I know what I prefer to watch.

 

Are you old enough to remember the Leicester fighter (I do mean fighter) Tony Sibson? If not, check him out on YouTube ......... ''all action'' just about sums him up.

 

Well simply just laying into someone don't get you anywhere. You waste your energy throwing ****load of punches with very few connecting. Plus you leave yourself exposed.
Not many fighters in any weight division have the flare of the greats from yesteryear. Boxing has got quite technical.

 

A good example of this was Ali v Foreman in the rumble in the jungle in 1974. Ali just let Foreman throw punches till he exhausted himself before knocking him out in the 8th round.

 

Spot on Mazzer.

 

We should be genuinely excited about Joshua, he looks like he could dominate the division for years to come.

 

Fury has always made me chuckle

If that's true, that's rather **** to be fair. Fury has had bad luck previously (a couple of times with Haye pulling out) and I genuinely think Fury would have tested Klitschko. I know a lot of people can't stand him, but he makes me smile, I enjoy his predictable unpredictability.

 

Apparently Ali pulled George in close to him in the 8th and said in his ear;

"Is that all you've got George?"

Ten seconds later he'd sparked him out.

 

You're not wrong.

But compared to Klitschko?

You are on a roll. Another post I agree with.

 

Klitschko suffers a bout of fanny itis. That's why he has pulled out.
