I mean he knocks out nearly 40% of everyone he fought at cruiserweight :shakehead:
I was being facetious. He said he'd knock out Wlad just like he did Cunningham, which if taken literally means he'd take a knockdown and a stagger in order to do it. Obviously, if knocked down by Wlad, yes... we'd still be waiting for Fury to get back up.
Fury's likable and exciting and all that.... but he's very raw, and Wlad right now would eat him alive.
....yyyyyeah, I'm gonna have to go ahead and disagree with you there
I'd be worried if you didn't. ;)
You gonna say why? or you just gonna leave it at that?

Quote:
"Fury I was not impressed. Steve Cunningham is not heavyweight. Fury tortured him for his strength, but I noticed he had serious problems in defense, and it can cost you a lot in boxing. If Fury will keep his word, the next fight he should meet with me - then we'll see which of us is stronger, "- said Pulev.

Re: Heavyweight Fight Schedule
Arreola did an ESPN chat wrap where he said he doesn't want to weigh below 240 :vd: ......he just doesn't get it does he? Yeah it's all fine & dandy if you're 240 and in fucking shape but Cris is always a soft 240 to where he could really be 220 if he wanted to train hard.
If Cris Arreola was as dedicated to boxing as Wladimir Klitschko then perhaps he'd make noise in the division.

Areola was on a good run and looked fit but he has not fought recently so may have fallen into his old lazy habits which is a shame.

Re: Heavyweight Fight Schedule
It's time for a new heavyweight contender and that guy is Wilder. Harrison is about to find out as are all the heavy's out there. Harrison is in for a rough time against Mr. Wilder from Alabama. Too bad the big boys don't give him the respect he deserves but everybody is about to see for themselves who the real contender is, sorry Harrison you will be lucky to make it 4 rounds with Wilder as the opponent.

Pulev is the test he needs on the world level to see if he is actually capable of fighting Wlad. I know last weekend showed he wasn't but Fury could improve on his last performance and by fighting Pulev he can show us that.

Wlad has given Wilder respect. Wlad used him as a sparring partner for one of his fights and commented on how impressed he was with Deontay's handspeed. That said Deontay needs to start putting some good names on his record.

Re: Heavyweight Fight Schedule
The question remains as to why Wilder is 27-0 with 27 knockouts, and is only now fighting a recognizable name in Audley Harrison. Wilder has got some serious catching up to do and fast.

Meh, he can and should take his time. He's not beating Wladimir today, tomorrow, or anytime soon. That being said his quality of opponents should be well known fighters from here on out. I would have tried to make a fight vs Golota earlier as that's almost as certain of a victory as Audley and he's a name fighter, we all know him.
I want to see Wilder fight a boxer and have to work around the guy's defense. Some guys are simply hard to catch cleanly and Wilder needs practice vs those kinds of fighters and rounds...loads more rounds.

Yeah, forget Wlad. He's got nothing but clear skies and a clear runway as he descends toward retirement. I've already given up hope that anyone will test him before he's gone.
As far as Wilder, why should he be afforded the benefit of amassing almost 30 wins by KO in 30 fights, while other fighters are facing credible opposition by their 10th or 15th fight? Not an even measuring stick, if you ask me.
Right now he's a circus show... and his managers/promoters have been hesitant to take that next step. It's like an old friend of mine used to say. There's "ready, aim, fire"..... and then there's "ready, aim, aim, aim, aim, aim......"

Because of his age coupled with his 27 fights and failure to face any challenges, I'll be a Wilder skeptic until he notches a respectable win.

He's raw, he's got to learn but he also has time to learn. I think right now he's learning more bad habits than good ones by facing these stiffs. He needs to be put to the test a bit...have him fight a dangerous puncher, have him fight a guy with a granite chin, have him fight a boxer...he NEEDS to go the distance a few times just to experience it if nothing else.
