Success is a shy deer. To make it, you have to be well prepared, to be at the right time at the right place and then not next course aimed at the crucial moment. When Tyson Fury came all this on Saturday night together
Except that he was not a deer killed in the Düsseldorf Arena, but the top dog. Wladimir Klitschko. How he felt then, the new heavyweight boxing champion was asked after his triumph on the day: “To be honest,” said Fury, “just like yesterday morning I’m just a normal guy who got lucky..”
This is not entirely true. Because for a normal type which he had eleven years undefeated Ukrainians quite impressive bought the cutter and taken his belt in the world IBF, WBA and WBO. Unanimously won Fury the “battle of the giants,” as the fight had been dubbed, made so in the boxing world for an earthquake and plunged his country, the same day also celebrated the first Davis Cup triumph since almost 80 years, in a sporty joy. In England you can already see a new era, as last Lennox Lewis could characterize a.
“We have seen the future”
“As a little boy I wanted to be boxing champion” said Fury after the fight. “And I proved to everyone that it was right to reach for the stars.” The 27-year-old Briton, who belongs to the Irish Travellers, so the traveling people, bursting with self-confidence. He now had to fear no more, he said. And responded to a duel with Champion Deontay Wilder by the World Association WBC: “Why should we ever talk about him, let us rather about him laughing This is a beginner who has just stopped only with the basketball games?!.”
Mick Hennessy, Fury’s manager, praised his protégé as the hottest invention since the Internet: “Tyson is simply a sensation.” And trainer and Uncle Peter sounded: “. We have seen the future”
Is that really so? Doubts are justified. Because the output of the campaign was indeed spectacular, the duel itself but at a modest level. During the twelve rounds the two giant stingy with high class sport. “That was a WM unworthy. From two bad boxers has the not quite so bad win,” Jean Marcel Artz said, once technical director in the stables Sauerland and Universum.
pöbeln to Resignation
The fight was long on harmlessness hard to beat, determined by permanent maneuvering, failed beatings and constant brackets. The statistics speak volumes: In Fury found only 86 strokes to finish, of which 48 action hits – an extremely low stroke rate for a world title fight. But these values were already bad, Klitschko remained under. Only 52 punches he landed, including a meager 18 action hits.
Tactically this fight, however, was a masterstroke of Fury. His strategy of double uncertainty went on full. He unnerved Klitschko inside and outside the ring until this resigned. Could his Batman appearance, filing the bullying and cheeky sayings in the months before the fight even under the usual ballyhoo, he made at the beginning of the fight week really serious with the pick on.
First, his team broke a bizarre dispute over the gloves from the fence and threatened to burst the battle. Then it criticized a few hours before the match, the ring floor, put a protest, forcing Klitschkos team to expand the base. 30 minutes before the fight they threatened again with a retreat because Klitschko had bandaged fists in the absence of Fury representative. The theater did not only that the battle began late. Above all, it took Klitschko out of rhythm. The 39-year-old is a self-confessed control freak, he does not like those harassing.
restore battered reputation
In the campaign strategy had Fury everything on one card: its greater range. She was the only asset of the inexperienced Brits – and he played him mercilessly, held the enemy at bay consistently. Klitschko looked helpless, and because he had no Plan B against Fury’s fast movements, the wobbler and the changing of the display. This is the dramatic weakness of his jab – otherwise his specialty – the best evidence. Instead of wearing down the challenger with his jab, as he does otherwise, he himself was worn out.
For Klitschko, the most difficult task is in the rematch, the range puzzles to solve. He must lure from his corral, without getting hit yourself Fury. Assuming Klitschko turns ever. “First, we celebrate Christmas and the New Year. Everything else we decide afterwards,” he said. The 39-year-old did not look as if he burn forward to a reunion with the “Gypsy King”.
However, it seems hard to imagine that the dethroned World Champion pinches and thus deflects the chance to restore his reputation. He will not want to finish with this depressing defeat his career. In addition, it would be sufficient time available to better next time to adjust to Fury. Maybe even with a new coach, because since the death of successful trainer Emanuel Stewart coached Klitschko quasi itself. Jonathon Banks had no more than a sporty helper.
Fury has proved to be a gifted Blender, which makes the most of its opportunities. But against a conditional and tactically better set Klitschko he may have to show more. The surprise effect will be fizzles when rematch and no longer apply the tactic of provoking, of disturbing and of evasion. Then the boxer Fury would have to prove that he is more than a clever strategist.
