I have seen Fury talking his gameplan on the fight and if he is to be believed its difficult to see the fight going more than a few rounds. He say he plans to throw the jab and then wade in immediately afterwards with uppercuts and hooks. Its knock out or get knocked out stuff.

He has me totally sold that hes going to really go for Klitscho here! I dont think I have ever looked forward to a Klitschko fight more!

Depends how Fury fights but, well, he's chinny and likely doesn't have much confidence in winning a decision which, to me, says he'll try and force things at some point and get starched. My guess is somewhere around the 5th.

Fury won't force anything...He'll concede the center and try to catch Wlad coming in...and then tie him up.

Can't see an early finish.....

Wlad stoppage round 8...

I highly doubt that the game plan Peter Fury has devised has been to wade in throwing bombs. They both now the game. He'll try and box like he always does.

Gareth A Davies was on Talksport today saying Klitscho has gone for a bigger ring and looks leaner than usual. He thinks Wlad is going to be moving a lot more than usual. Maybe similar tactics to the Wach fight? If that's the case though he's oversold Fury's chin.

Maybe there is concern over Fury's size and reach. I would have thought Wlad would know he could end this fight at any time. Maybe he wants to appease the German advertisers.

I'd be shocked if he went for it too. He'll get starched early if he does in my view. He'll be cagey and hope to take it into the later rounds where he might fancy his chances a bit more. I'm expecting an ugly spoiling fight while it lasts... Which may not be long.

Hope I'm wrong and he has a real go for it.

You'd think that given both are fans of the old 'grab and lean' technique when things get close there will be a lot of hugging and spoiling. I think Fury will try and use his jab as it's proven to work lately, then Klit will beat him at that game and it'll get a bit untidy with energy sapping cuddles for a few rounds.

Although I think Fury has the tools to win this one, I don't think he will

Wouldn't be shocked if Fury shocks the world, but if you put a gun to my head:

Klitschko within 8

This could be anything - absolutely anything.

I like Fury in this fight and think he'll give Klitschko fits, however, Wlad has that other-worldly punch power (he's ridiculously muscled for a 39-year old heavyweight) and Fury always tends to get tagged at least once with a big one.

If Wlad doesn't land a big one then I think you'll see him look more of a wet lettuce than ever before. Fury won't be intimidated, he won't fold and he'll show Wlad plenty of speed, movement and workrate.

It's must-see TV and if Fury were to win I would be absolutely over the moon.

Wlad likes to appease the sponsors and German fans by dragging things out.

Equally, seeing Fury's Tweets during the Murray fight about German roberries and never getting the decision there, I don't think he's going to want this to go to points - I don't think he'll wade in, but as the fight goes on he'll press harder and take more risks going for the ko.

Which is when Wlad will ko him.

Klit TKO9.

I didn't think it possible to underrate fury but maybe I am. Quite a few of you knowledgeable folks think he can test Wlad. I do hope you're right.

I don't think fury is great, but I don't think he has taken any fight seriously until this point.

As good as Klit has been, he is getting on a bit and Fury is a big guy.

I am definitely not saying Fury will win, but I think he is a live under dog. I actually think he will do better against Wlad, than what he would of done against David Haye.

Fury's got balls - that puts him above the majority of Wlad's previous opponents.

Ring rust might stymie him (Wlad could well crack him out before he warms up).

Easiest money I'll ever make:

Wlad 1-3: 17/2
Wlad 4-6: 11/2

£50 at 17/2 = £475
£50 at 11/2 = £325

Glass chin. Average fighter. Gonna get splattered.

Not a lost cause..

Are we all missing a trick here?

Wladimir has feasted on smaller men throughout his career, who have bloated up to try and match his heft.
Most were defeated (controlled) by Klitschko long before the first bell.
Klitschko won't be able to hold and grapple Fury.
Fury has the spirit, the guts to fight Klitschko hard (something he hasn't encountered since Sam Peter had him all over the show ten years ago).
Fury's younger, quicker and fresher (with the better engine).
If Fury goes down, he's shown the ability to get back up and keep ticking.

Any upset alarm bells ringing?

Haz I like your way of thinking and hope that Fury can bring it.

Wlad has been very good, but he won't have the usual advantages. I still think he wins a decision with his ability, but would like Fury to pull it off.

Is Fury's power really that much though? Sanders flatten Wlad but had serious power.

Fury only 'retired' Chisora, for example, who Haye splattered, needed a dodgy, almost illegal, move to stop Cunningham and couldn't dent (admittedly durable) Kingpin who AJ wiped out in 2 rounds.

Fury needs to wind up his punches to get the power, there's no snap and I don't think he'll get the chance versus Wlad.

Fury to be outclassed and annihilated within 6 rounds...30,000 vehicles to be vandalized in the car park afterwards, Fury's family/entourage to be rounded up and sent to the Middle East to wage their own personal war on I.S.

I have stuck up for Wlad more than most, but you would think he was Ali, the way some are portraying him.

He is 40 years old and usually holds many physical advantages over opponents. I am in no way calling Fury world class, but he is bigger, younger and hungry fighter that can box a wee bit when required.

I would love him to get the upset. Imagine how big fights could be with AJ, Wilder and maybe even Haye. The heavyweight division needs change.

Povetkin, Pulev, Chagaev, Peter and numerous others had balls before they fought Wlad but soon found out his power and jab is something they've not come across before.

Wlad within 3 in an easy one sided jab induced beat down.

Would you like to wager Fury goes more than 3 rounds (and does far better than you've predicted)?

Fury has never impressed me in any of his fights, even at British level. Was gifted a result against John McD along the way. Even Price, despite his glassy limitations, at least looked good against poor opposition.

Despite having the physical advantages such as height and reach, he doesn't fight to these advantages, similar to how Paul Williams fought.

Wlad will find him quite easily and Fury doesn't have enough power to keep him off. Wlad inside 6 with 3 or 4 knockdowns along the way.

Can't make a case for Fury. He paws with a job at the distance and can't see him getting close enough to Wlad without getting a right hand for his troubles, which will be enough.

Agree with what Hammer says about all the good will in the world going out the window as soon as he starts getting hit. Could end up going into his shell like Haye.

Wlad won't want to end it early. German audiences don't like that.

Fury is a fairly cautious fighter. Never went for a finish against Chisora. Expect him to move backwards whilst jabbing. Wlad to close him down in the latter rounds. Fury will panick and get stopped around the 9th

Wlad points also. Love to see Tyson pull it off but find it hard to envisage him winning this one - Fury isn't going to go gung-ho and he isnt bad enough to be sparked out early.

In what world is Fury quicker than Wlad anyway because it sure isn't the real world nor does getting up against Cunningham mean a damn thing when it comes to getting hit by Wlad. I understand people want to try and big up the fight because Fury is 'British' but he has no hope.

I think he could be a shade quicker - we'll see Saturday I guess.

Fury's been knocked down, wobbled, fought through exhaustion - he's been through adversity. That all helps him here.
