Klit is past his prime, but will still beat Fury in the rematch against Fury or face the wrath of Vitali as he disgraced the family with that performance.Fury has a massive legion of haters who are just plain ignorant and couldn't see talent if it smacked them in the face. (You could insert Wilders name and it would also be true). So its not surprising he wasn't rated a chance. Instead of praising his performance in typical arrogant and delusional style ATG Wlad became a washed up bum. I believe Povetkin will recieve the same fate after losing to wilder.
Nah, Fury is definitely top 10, even top 5. I rate Ortiz, Fury, Martin, Wlder about the same. All very good, just not great. Parker beats Fury due to his going after Fury instead of freezing (aka Klit), beats Martin because he only very good, and struggles against Ortiz due to his skill and power as a lefty, and struggles with Wilder due to Wilder size and power (Stu is NOT a Wilder believer, I am).
I'm not writing off Wlad completely because he's still a boss but he will need to do more than throw more punches to beat the furious one
