Exactly. Everytime Fury upped the pressure in the fight, Wlad wilted and started to flail. Had fury put on the gas he would have knocked Wlad spark out. I think this time he will spark Wlad out!

Look, its one thing to say that the Orgs are bending Fury over the park bench and treating him quite different then they treat other champions. Hell, even the fake and frauds get treated better then he does. Why? Cant say specifically. Maybe they all hate the Irish.

Its quite another to even hint that this was some kind of glorious performance cause it wasn't. The outcome had more to do with what Wlad didn't do. One can give Fury credit for that also I suppose but if that's so then it would fall on some kind of brilliant performance taking advantage of that. Wlad was paranoid to throw anything and instead of capitalizing that Fury landed a dismal 86 punches in a 12 round fight. Wlad landed 52. In short, there was no turning it up.

Fury did what he had to do and deserves big credit for going to Wlads hometown and taking the tin but some perspective is in order even if its the upset of the decade or whatever.
