londoner Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Should be a good contest for Fury. I think he'll win by UD but wouldn't be surprised if he got the stoppage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheelchair Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Neither of them looks well defined do they? Might well turn out to be a hugging contest after the first couple of rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Galveston Giant Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Thanks for the pics Joe KO, fancy Fury to take a UD, hopefully it's a decent fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tweetstreet Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Fury hasn't really been out of training since the chisora fight. He needs a proper trainer, fitness coach and nutritionist though. No excuses he has the ability to be in klitchko shape just not the desire at present.

londoner Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I thought Fury did really well and would have learnt a lot from that win. He controlled the fight for most parts but had a very shaky round 3 where it looked like Firtha might get a knockout victory. But Fury was clever to hold on and gain some time. It was back to work in round 4 and 5 though where he went to work on Firtha again. The stoppage might have been slightly early but the stoppage was inevitable. Fury was landing bomb after bomb from round 1. I think Fury would have learnt not to go all out for a KO early on. He was throwing the kitchen sink at Firtha in round 1. With his massive jab i think he can bide his team better. On top of the jab he has the big right hand which he throws with venom. He also has pretty decent body work for a boxer his size. All in all i thought it was a good display from Fury and actually think he has a big future ahead. He's only 23 years old so will be around long after the Klitschkos have gone.
