    OK ,so we have a former undefeated champ coming back ,with no belt as such to his name .Apart from the linear ,man who beat the man .
    Fury v Wilder ,which of these could it most resemble ?
    Jeffries v Johnson ,with the comeback Jeffries been battered and stopped .?

    Ali v Frazier ,with comeback Muhammad putting up a brave effort but losing points?

    Spinks v Tyson ,with comeback jinx been destroyed ..fast?

    Or are we looking at a repeat of the great Rumble in the jungle ,with Fury regaining his title and totally frustrating his opponent ?

    After watching Fury's recent fights, I'm going to say Spinx-Tyson, and I'm now leaning so heavily toward that type of outcome that the fight itself might almost be anticlimactic for me.
    (If on the other hand Fury were in the condition he was against Wlad, I'd be betting as much money as I could get my hands on on him.)

    As it stands my prediction is Wilder climbs off the canvas - from a slip -to put Fury away before 5. I see lots of booing from the crowd and scolding from the referee en route.
    You know the type of fight I mean.

    The only thing that may liven it up is if Wilder starts smashing him up ,which is a possibility. And see fury under real pressure

    I’m trying to think what I would compare it to?

    A guy on a short comeback, slightly outpointing the lesser skilled belt holder...then getting dropped in the 10th and stopped in the 11th...

    I don’t know what to compare it to? A boring comeback who wins a decision or gets stopped due to lack of stamina? Not sure...I am going to watch it but don’t have high hopes for the quality....I hate HW boxing today and for the past 15 years or so

    None of those, It will most likely IMO be a come from behind KO win for Wilder.

    As a classic fight fan, my every instinct is telling me to pick Wilder.

    History is on his side in this!

    Despite all of this, I am picking Fury!

    He is just too clever for Wilder, and he is motivated now.
