    Fury was clearly taller than Wilder. About an inch or more.

    Fury is terribly out of shape. Undisciplined as hell.

    Fury's got those giant fat rolls flopping over his shorts like before. Clearly just dialling it in. What a dosser.

    Schwarz has been hand picked on purpose for Fury to make a statement in the US. I don't think he, Warren or Arum are stupid enough for this to go wrong, therefore predict early doors... Schwarz looks extremely poor in all the clips I've seen.

    The way Fury ballooned up and stretched his skin out means he will never get that tight muscular body ever again. He'll always have this excess blubber. Even so, his body is now plateued out, meaning all that training and dieting is not going to have the same effect it once did...so all he can do now is keep his skills sharp and focus on refining what he has.

    Also....at this stage a 5-10lb weight gain is nothing more than a few drinks and a meal for a guy this size.

    He is a door man or night club bouncer.

    Agreed, wilder should be ashamed he lost to somebody so out of shape.

    Yep. I've put a few pennies on stoppage rounds 1-3. Such little that I don't care if I lose :)

    Being 263 pounds has nothing to due with his body type. You don’t need a lot of muscle to be in shape either.

    He’s fat due to eating too much and working out too little. When he was on PED’s he was able to burn the Fat easier.

    Did Arum know how heavy Fury would be?

    They could have picked a lighter puncher or a guy with a shaky chin.

    I think Schwartz has a chance thanks to Fury being fat and perhaps even being taken lightly.

    Does Schwarz not have a shaky chin though? He's been in with nobodies, and until he starts dealing with body shots etc. who knows.

    They could well have gone for another small guy or pumped up cruiser, but what's that going to prove to the US audience? I just can't see the weight mattering too much at this level, and that it will all be about levels... happily will be quoted on it if wrong though.

    He's absolutely terrible and feather fisted. Not sure about Schwarz's chin or will-power, but his skill level and stamina are absolutely atrocious. He's Boxrec #56 and fighting for the 'lineal heavyweight championship of the world' FFS.

    Exactly, and if Fury can punch the will power and desire out of a Chisora years back when Chis was better (not a world beater admittedly but a way better level than this guy), he surely will have no problems, and should do it early to make a big impression. After AJ's loss it's essential for his progression to go out there and put it on Schwarz.

    If Fury is unwilling to change his eating habits he should consider having liposuction to remove his unsightly love handles.
    Liposuction removes fat cells for good—so you can “break up” with your love handles permanently.

    Is this ironical or are you serious?

    At 247 lb he was in the best shape ive ever seen him, he was quicker, sharper and moved much more against Wlad.

    I remember John Fury stated some weeks before the Wilder fight it is a 50-50 fight because his son is not in his best shape. If he would have been in his best shape (like he was against Wlad) it is a 80-20 fight for Fury.
    John Fury stated word-to-word: "The last rounds will become very difficult for Tyson because he has not the stamina for 12 rounds on full speed yet"
    And what did happen? Wilder was only able to catch Fury in the 9 and 12 round, when Fury was already slowing down and didnt move as he usually do.

    Here a highlight clip of Wlad-Fury and Wilder-Fury, watch both of them and you gonna see Fury was faster, sharper and moved much more as he did against Wilder:
