Wlad-Fury press conference today. Fact.

[Master]

This could still be on channel 5, you never know.

Fury certainly talks good trash, which is entertaining and he knows how to sell a fight.

klitschko is a clever guy, though, and is very experienced and mentally strong. Did anyone else think that Fury actually looked pretty uncertain at the press conference?

Not uncertain but nervous as he should be and how every fighter is for each bout. Believe me, Wlad is also nervous. He was trying to goad Tyson with the self uppercut but it failed and Wlad stuttered as Tyson pointed out he has also done this himself in had actual last bout, not a novice as Tyson was when he did it.

A nervous Tyson is going to be an awesome sight. We will see a totally focused Tyson as we would have if Haye hadnt bottled it.

Against Cunningham, Chisora and Hammer he had zero respect for any of them and said as much before hand.

[Dark Lord Al]

The simple fact is , fury is in very deep now with a major league puncher.

[Fenster]

Don't think Fury was nervous, seemed put off his game by the press conference being in German for the German press. Wlad is a smart fucker. He realised he needs to get Fury's gums flapping and did just that.

Fury will ramp it up at the London press conference

Really found a new angle on that Dr. Steele hammer moniker hasn't he.
I like it

Absolute polar opposites these two in the two posted post press conference vids.... one (as always) is a total pro and very business like talking about the fight and the other sipping a beer and talking about how much he's been wanking lately!

I don't think Fury was nervous either more bemused about the lack of English being spoken.

I'm wondering whether he himself will try some hit and hold tactics, make it messy in the hope of using his bigger size to drain Wlad for as long as he can, try and get him 5-6 rounds in then try and box him when Wlads a bit more open?
That would 100% be my tactic for Tyson.
If he goes out from the off and tries to box Wlad he'll get KOd within 2 rounds 😉

Im no tactics expert but id get Wlad working and backing up early. Take all the initiative from him. Dont wait to counter and give him lots of combinations to think about. One will get through and hurt him. Tyson may not load up on his shots but you better believe he can hurt Wlad and it will come from a shot in a combination. One Wlad doesnt see coming.

He's allowed to fight the way he wants, within the rules, but please let's not have hold and hit fest. I don't think Fury would win that kind of fight in Germany.
Who is the referee going to be? He could wind up working harder than the fighters in a hug fest between these two long armed leeches.
Ross, don't try to deny it, both these guys love to use their weight in the ring so the potential for a seriously ugly fight is there.
It's hard for me to imagine a real boxing match or slugfest breaking out between these two.
OH baby, there is going to be a whole lot of hugging going on, in my opinion.
Wlad could be showing his age a little, Tyson has been showing some growth in his game, especially with his mouth.
We've seen plenty of both these fighters so how do the rest of you think it's going to play out?

[smashup]

Thing is if Fury tries that Wlad will hug him which is when Fury should try and walk him back and rough him up, one thing he doesn't want is Wlad getting bombs off early on while he's fresh and strong.
Wear him down first or try to 😉
It's intriguing because all the physical advantages are with Fury and IF he can take Wlad past halfway then he's definitely got a chance I think.
Wlad doesn't do well against awkward fighters and this ones a bigger man and a switch hitter.
I really hope Fury wins but I can also see a huge left hook dropping him like a sack of shit very very early in the fight

I fucking love Fury, I hope he whips Klitschko.
