    Problem is, he has no idea how to get someone "out of there" he just does not have a killer instinct, and he has very little power. I never saw him land a punch of any consequence. He was content to just punch through Johnson's gloves and every once in a while go downstairs. If he saw the Vitali fight, and wanted to step up in competition, he would have figured out a way to get Johnson out of there. The blueprint to win was easy enough to copy

    He's obviously not ready for the next level. Adamek, Haye and Chambers would give him fits because they could walk through his punches and land something meaningful

    Good news is he still has time to improve

    I think Fury also lacks that killer instinct.

    Is he showing to much respect to opponents, or does he believe he is in a different class to his opponents and using them as a sparring session.

    Either way, when the time comes I think we will see the Fury's killer instinct when he gets pushed in the ring by better opponents.
