Can I just say I told you all so, Fury is a legit fighter much better than any of you gave him credit for. I doubt any 39yo champ in the history of boxing could beat him, and Wlad as great as he is couldn't either. Wlad is a tremendous fighter an atg, probably the best 39 yo champ in history and 5 years ago would have probably beaten Fury (at this stage of his career), but he has lost a step and that's all it takes
If you were expecting fire works then you are pretty stupid Wlad is a safety first fighter, he loves the jab and grab nothing unusual. This fight was actually very entertaining imo, i thought the ref should have warned Wlad for holding though and we might have had a greater spectacle.
I always said Joshua might be a very special fighter but he's not there yet. Fury would box his ears off if they fought now (I kind of hope they do because heaps of muppets will get proven wrong again), a better marker would be Joseph Parker who is at practically the same stage of his career.
Fury vs Wilder for all the belts now that's a big fight and a great build up could make it huge. I never really rated Wilder until he beat Stiverne, ever since I really like what I see tbh. He has the reach, speed and power to give anyone problems and unlike current Wlad he loves to pull the trigger. Fury and Wilder are 1 and 2 in the world right now no doubt in my mind any way.
Wlad needs to retire but he will always be one of the best to me. This new era of heavyweight boxing is going to be bloody awesome, heaps of potentially great young guns
