Sure, Fury's chin is questionable, but I really don't see an early knockout or easy win for Wlad.
To be honest, I think Wlad will be more cautious than ever before due to the sheer size of Fury and he'll barely let any punches go, let alone full on power shots. Even when he fought Haye, who basically ran all night, Wlad didn't let his hands go at all. At the end of the day, he's been bombed out himself and his powers of recovery aren 't great either, so he'll be in full survival mode looking to nick it on the cards.
I see this as a 50/50 fight and if Fury fights the right fight and slowly and sensibly applies the pressure, I've no doubt that he can win. He could walk on to something, but even if he does, he's been down before and always gets straight back up no problem. Sure, he hasn't faced someone who hits as hard as Wlad, but I just don't see him going down and staying down from a single punch.
Wlad is going to have his hands full in this one.
