Wladimir Klitschko vs Tyson Fury

Fury said: “I am absolutely delighted”.

Klitschko vs. Fury is live on HBO World Championship Boxing this Saturday, November 28 with a special afternoon fight time of 4:45 p.m. ET.

Defence is a big key in this fight as well as attack, but if you’re too defensive you’ve got no attack… it’s a fine balance to get inside and short circuit Wladimir at what he does.

“I don’t think Klitschko can fight at a high pace and I think that Fury will do everything he can to exhaust him and will win it late”.

He mentions Russian Federation because of Klitschko’s enormous popularity there, but presumable he means also kicking butt on Ukraine, Germany (also a huge fan base) and Nashville, Tennessee, where Klitschko lives part of the year with his fiancée, actress Hayden Panettiere, and their baby daughter. Staying at the end of Klitschko’s punches is boxing suicide, and Fury’s crafty in-fighting ability could allow him to rough Klitschko up and disrupt his timing. Even if I beat Wlad in one second, is it going to get any bigger than this?

“We just need some common sense, because it is in both fighters’ interest and the public’s interest that the surface is right”.

John Fury, father of Tyson, is confident that his son will be able to capture all Klitschko’s crowns when they clash, Fight Hype reported. His brother, Vitali, took a four-year break, returned and then had to limp away undefeated as champion after 10 more fights. “The difference between me and the previous challengers Klitschko (64-3-0, 53 KOs) has beaten in a row is that none of them were like me”.

The last of Klitschko’s three defeats was back in 2004. I wish him the best of luck.

All week Fury’s beaming demeanour has been of a man who is in sole possession of a wondrous secret. “I don’t want him to do a David Haye and start blaming old injuries when he loses”.

“Fury has been avoided and has got himself into top shape for this fight. I’ve heard it a lot”.

Fury baulked at Klitschko’s description of his ego.

On the other side, Fury has been a hammer rising through the ranks and biding his time to get a shot against Klitschko on this stage.

“On Saturday night the whole world is going to celebrate with me as I achieve my goal and become the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world”.

The super-fight is attracting worldwide attention much to do with the antics of colourful character, Tyson Fury after tussling with The Joker dressed as Batman midway through a press conference, singing his own rendition of Bette Midler songs and complimenting his forthcoming foe on his perfume when they went head-to-head earlier this week. Fury has also been put on the canvas by Steve Cunningham, a cruiserweight who stepped up a division, leaving massive questions regarding his ability to take a hit.
