Charles Martin was/is far worse. Boxers have to take the step up at some point. Tyson didn't exactly have a glowing resume going into the Wlad fight, but he pulled it off. I'd say he has a lot more than the Fury name. He's a good boxer. Unlike a lot of modern heavyweights who concentrate on power and explosive hand speed, the Fury's concentrate on footwork, head movement and a controlling jab which makes them tough for anyone because they are like nobody else right now.
