You're easily amused.

"Chisora ends the hype doe"

Fury has all the tools physically and the intangibles to put Wlad in a world of hurt. It's pathetic fans can't be objective about fighters and give Fury his due respect as a prototype HW boxer with Margarito-esque conditioning who is a threat to dominate the division for years if left unchecked.

Unchecked being your final and key word, he's about to be checked by the divisions undisputed no.1 lol, you don't get anymore of a thorough check than that, AKA the baddest man on the planet !

Wlad baddest man on the planet?

Please dear.

Whom as Fury faced who has posed a single question of him ? USS was supposed to be a low risk high reward which turned into high risk low reward, in a fight which damaged his stock and made him a figure of ridicule after all the tripe he talked in the build up to that fight.

Well he fought John McDermott in only his 8th fight and went 10 rounds. he was a big underdog in the first Chisora fight when he was a 22 year old kid fighting a full grown unbeaten man. Many people here had him as an underdog in the second Chisora fight too.

Kevin Johnson was supposed to ask some questions of him at the time, and what you're saying about Cunningham isn't true. He was a test, albeit one Fury was expected to take care off, which he did, climbing off the canvas to do it.

Even Neven Pajkic, Nicolai Firtha and those guys are good tests for a guy with less than 20 fights and nothing but 22 years old.

When Wlad was at that stage in his career, he was fighting guys with 10 & 15+ losses.

Fury has had a solid upbringing.

Wlad is far too much of a nice guy to be the baddest man on the planet.

Find any one performance from the last 10 years and compare it to before Wlad last lost, he's a different animal. If you can't see that I can't help you. I'm 33 year old, I am as fit as I was in my twenties yet feel stronger than I ever have, I feel I'm in my physical prime right now, in fact I know I am, long may it continue. You can't tell me I was in my prime in my twenties just because I was younger, it not only does not make sense it is ******, as I have said previously !

You give Fury fans a bad name.

Ok, lets do that.

Take the Tony Thompson fight - when Wlad was this 'different animal'.

What separates Sanders Wlad from Thompson Wlad?? Nothing.

He got tagged with straight left hand lead leads throughout that fight. He looked **** on average against a slow , light hitting southpaw.
Judging by that performance , its clear as day Sanders would have cleaned his clock again.
And don't speak to me about improved defence. Clinching and holding is not defence.

Thats contact. A great defensive boxer will not be touched. Mauling and holding is being touched= Contact.
Thompson was held and clinched all night.
Wlad holds on for life because he has no defence. Sanders threw Wlad off him like a wet blanket when he got held. More likely than not - he does it again.

When a guy defeats somebody SO easily like Sanders done to Wlad - there is absolutely no case for the guy who was destroyed winning a second fight. Unless he proved it in the ring. He never proved it in the ring.
Sanders destroyed Wlad and no ifs or buts will ever change that.

[Burt Saxby]

Another example.

The light pillow puff Pulev left jab that staggered Wlad in the first round.

Replace that with a hard , fast left from Sanders. Wlad is gone again. The prime , improved 'different animal' Wlad.

[Weltschmerz]

Indeed

It is an asset which has the potential to make things interesting though, fury has a few of those

Movement, decent jab, reach, punch variety, inside game.

Most heavyweights these days don't have that range in their arsenal, they are either plodders with power or short guys who move but dont have reach or sped to get through

If fury can land his jab on klitschko, he's already doing more than most. On the inside, fury has skills to negate the clinch which again is more than most. So he has attributes to utilise different tactics in this fight.

Wlad is a heavy favourite, but the fight is stylistically interesting

Agreed. Fury has fairly fast hands too. One of his biggest problems is his defense, and how will he handle Vlad's power? Fury should definitely try to make it an ugly fight, to keep Vlad from getting comfortable behind his jab and 1-2 combination. Fury should make it an inside fight, something Vlad could get pretty uncomfortable with, perhaps. Fury needs to rely as much on his own physical strength and size, and use it. Then we have something maybe ugly, but interesting. Can't get worse than Povetkin.
