Sure. But what came as a surprise was Fury being such a devastating puncher as well as a boxer.Quote:

Our legs seemed to have gone in the last 20 minutes. Another legacy of Emery's failure to get the players fit.Quote:

Watch some of the great fights from the 70s and 80s - Norton v Holmes, Ali v Frazier 1 etc and anyone would realise how awful it now is.
I pay no attention to it at all anymore and watching about 30 secs of that fight showed me why, again.
His fight against Klitschko was an absolute masterclass in defensive boxing, but yeah didn't see where that power came from. Don't think AJ can avoid him without losing the respect of the profession (this was not typed with a straight face)Quote:

Not sure AJ has it in him to get this done...maybe Dillion might give Fury more of a fight. Tyson 2.0 is a monster.
