The poster designed to promote the Wladimir Klitschko v Tyson Fury fight has unveiled the expected nature of the outcome between Britain’s Tyson Fury and Wladimir Klitschko by indicating an explosive disaster for Tyson Fury when he eventually meets Wladimir Klitschko at the Dusseldorf Arena center in Germany in under 2 weeks time on November 28th.
Emblazoned at the top of the poster are words whose translation in English means Collision course’, and depicts a dark road in the background ostensibly reflecting the setting for a car crash. Tyson Fury has made no secret of his intention to charge at Wladimir Klitschko from the first bell and put him under intense pressure with the goal of snatching the 3 undisputed title belts the champion has held for a decade now.
Fury at 26 is by far the younger man in this contest, and believes his youth and hunger for success in the sport will prove too much for Klitschko, who Fury has not held back on describing as too old to beat him and ruin his own huge ambitions to control the division. Fury is unbeaten in 24 fights and is confident he can end Klitschko’s dominance in the division and begin his own reign. Klitschko recently said that he did not regard Fury as the best heavyweight in the UK because both David Haye and Anthony Joshua would beat him. Klitschko pointed out that Fury does not have enough power in his punches and has described the 6ft 9 inch gypsy as a bi-polar with mental issues.
The choice of words used in the poster suggests Klitschko’s plans to inflict a punishing defeat against Fury and take advantage of Fury’s plans to load up on the champion from the outset, and use his superior experience to knock him out. Fury recently described classy and dignified Klitschko as a ”devil worshiper’ without providing any factual grounds for his slanderous comments.’ Klitschko who has lost just 3 times in 67 fights is favorite to win the anticipated world championship fight when the pair meet before a 55,000 audience in Germany.
