    A horse is in the pub having a few drinks when spots a donkey in the corner, so he nips over to have a natter. The donkey asks "What did you do for a living?”  Horse says " I ran on the flat in the summer and over the jumps in the winter". The donkey says "I worked with the kids on blackpool beach". Then he asks "Did you win anything?” The horse says "Yeah, on the flat I won the Oaks, St. Leger and the Derby and over the jumps I won the Grand National and the Gold Cup”.
    They arrange to meet at the donkey's house a week later. The donkey thinks, "I need to impress this guy he's done everything" , so he buys a big picture of a zebra and hangs it above the fireplace. The horse arrives and says "Lovely place you have here and who's that in the picture on the wall?” The donkey replies " That’s me when I played for Juventus!”

    Wlad's arm length might be less than AJ but he has a wide stance and a loose dipped shoulder. Wlad uses his jab and front hand to manipulate. He puts his lead foot under your feet. To hit him you have to pass both his jab and foot meaning you're over reaching. Off balance he then nails you with the right hand.
    His reach, his invasion of your space is massive. This is why he is the only fighter to be in charge of the center of the ring v AJ. He was the predator in that fight.
    Fury has his fights half won in the build up. Look at the long game he's playing with AJ. Fury rates Joshua. He mocks Joshua's boxing skills but AJ is actually quite a complete fighter. He's been a brilliant amateur and Olympian. But Fury wants to fight an angry Joshua. A Joshua looking to knock Fury out. And it's working because Joshua bites now whenever Fury is mentioned. 
    Like Wlad. Wlad takes boxing very serious. So Fury made it a joke. Dressing up as Batman and other daft behaviour. It's not because Fury is a clown. He knew exactly what he was doing.
    He did it with Haye. 
    He takes people out their comfort zone. Then when he gets in the ring at 6ft 9in he's fast, switches stance, rolls along the ropes out of reach, has a stiff jab. As you say he's a huge bloke and the jab from range is heavy. 
    He fights like the underdog. Always got an exit strategy. 
    Thing about Fury is when he is actually serious in interviews (very rare and never for the full interview) he's a keen student. Top bloke. 
    You can't really study Fury's style. He mixes everything up and plays off the opponent. You can't stop the jab. 
    The heavyweight division is in great shape imo.

    Don't see any value in a rematch. You were right with your penultimate post. Taylor his last pay day.
    as for crolla maybe a title shot but I am not sure he is good enough to beat any holders.

    Just watched Parker and very unimpressed. Ok his opponent was awkward but even so I would like everyone to dis regard my last sentence on the above post

    Ooooh Anthony Joshua.
    in all honesty I was shitting it I thought he was done. Very relieved, I think Joshua is beatable now though.

    8 months! Wow. I had a bored chilled week free and really got into it to start with I really didn't rate it but that changed as I progressed. Ended up doing a 'night shift 'each night just playing Fallout 4
    I did a fair amount of side missions to but like you I like to complete everything but I know if I take a few weeks off from a game I wont ever end up doing it so fair play for spreading it out over 8 months!
    Loads of people say Witcher is amazing- is it better than fallout?

    Why the hate for Bellew? Genuine question. I love the bloke
    That fight was thrilling. 
    And massive respect to David Haye. A true warrior tonight. 
    Didn't like the shots after the bell but then I didn't enjoy seeing him on one leg. I thought I'd love seeing him hurt after all his hospital threats but nah.
    Hope he comes back stronger.

    Haye is smart. You have pretty much answered your own questions to an extent. It's simple Haye wants to be the best so he got him self into a position where he could shoot up the rankings. Di mori was ranked in the top 10 so that was an easy route back and the other guy had a crazy long unbeaten run so that again boosted him up.
    Fighting scott? did you see his fight against Ortiz why would anyone want to pay to see that? He wants the best of the best. Those names you mention are not. He will get far more money and more hype by lining up fights with the likes of Joshua.
    He is at the tail end of his career even if it is a new comeback so there's no point in holding back. 
    To be the best you have to beat the best. We will see on Saturday whether this new Haye has still got it and if he has then I genuinely believe he is the biggest threat to AJ

    was thinking the exact same thing when reading the gossip column this morning! Brighton preparing a loan bid. We should hijack that and bring him here! Class act

    I did have Burns but only by 1 round! Those scores were embarrassing
     
    Joshua to KO Klitshcko to end his career.
    Or will we see another tactical masterclass by Klitschko. To be honest I would of waited for one more klitshcko fight because if AJ did win he wouldn't get as much credit because Fury already beat him.
    I do actually think Fury would of got beat comfortably by Klitschko in the rematch though but we will never know.
