    Fury better put down that carrot cake & stop drinking because Wilder is motivated 1000% times more to win the triology.

    Fury is very similar to ruiz & broner. Fury is probably ordering pizza hut, eating chocolates, drink a 40 can of beer. Fury has to stay motivated or he can lose it as fast as he got it, again

    Let's hope step-aside is still possible. Maybe Pulev pulls-out (there is a pun in there somewhere, but I digress), Fury rings him on the phone and says he is available, they send a truck-load of money to Deontay's crib...Fury-Joshua in June!

    Something similar happened with Wladdy-Chagaev and Valuev.

    In another thread, someone else pointed out that this is financially a difficult fight, because Fury-Wilder, success that it was, did not get enough buys to break even. Maybe Wilder pulls out when they tell him his guarantee is being cut.

    If the fight does come off, I think we all know that Fury is only going to get better and more comfortable in his new style. I don't see another nervous breakdown happening. Why bother, really?

    Everyone has big theories on what Wilder needs to do or learn, but largely it is too late to start over. His best bet would be to simply do SOMETHING with his left hand--an authoritative jab, 3-4 quality hooks a round--and hope for the best.

    Fury by another TKO, and Wilder goes back to delivering soda, or whatever it is he used to do, when he spends all of his money on comic-book suits and hookers.

    Wilder fans have been triggered since the 7th round of the last fight.

    Pulev will have to be shelved by Arum to make Fury Joshua for all the belts. Pulev has been lurking around hoping for a shot at a vacant title for years now. How he wormed his way back into a mandatory position is incredibly frustrating but he's played his hand well enough for someone who clearly bottled out of fighting Joshua because he had a promotional dispute going on behind the scenes back then.

    I hope Wilder is careful with the money from the last Fury fight and will be careful with the money from the third fight. He needs some professional advice on investment. Looking at him and his inner circle, I doubt he is getting the right advice at the moment.

    Once Fury beats him up again, the kind of pay days he has been used to will disappear. Most of his fake friends and hangers on will disappear too. He will need then to have passive income to support him and his 5 kids and wife.

    Simply something that had to be done before negotiating the step-aside money and then claim Fury is ducking him....

    Fury should refuse to fight the bum until he gets a psychiatric evaluation.

    July is too soon. That doesn't give Wilder's fashion designer the time to design a ring walk outfit with the appropriate weight and amount of lighting.

    The sooner the better for Fury.

    If Wilder wanted to gain an advantage he'd try postpone it for the end of the year.

    This is a useless fight, since Fury already beats him 2 time, and even if Wilder manage to win, he ain`t proving anything, except for the Fury takes the fight lightly.
    Its obvious Wilder can`t improve and if Fury comes even in 50+% of his best he will beat Wilder day and night.
    Fury already beats him 2 time, so beaten him 3rd time is just meaningless.
    Tho the fight will obviously happen, as well as Pulev - Joshua. Fury needs to call the shots now, the venue, the referee, the ring, the judges, gloves, and everything that the champion belt allowed him to do. He is clearly the A Side and he needs to call the shots now. Even when there is a rematch clause.
    As far as Pulev - Joshua fight, Pulev really wants Joshua to vacate the belts, because he is refusing to sign any contract, he said he won`t find in England and wants the fight in Turkey or different destination, but not in the England.
    They will go to the pursue bid, and date for the pursue bid is March 3rd.
    Pulev obviously want to win the pursue bid and to make Joshua vacate the belt.
    Hearn needs to finally win a pursue bid, cause its for his golden hen.

    Wilder is a sucker for punishment. No wonder he came out in a gimp suit

    Hearn said they have to trigger it anyway to get the step aside. So if Finkel could get a massive pay out and then they still get the rematch afterwards for a big payday, it would be surprising if they didn't step aside really.
    To me it's funnier if AJ loses to Pulev and the megafight doesn't happen. I don't particularly want Hearn and AJ's pockets lined any further. And people are quick to forget AJ did lose to Andy Ruiz by TKO. They've tried to cover that crime scene but it still lingers.
