If Wilder actually beats or KOs Fury it will go down as the greatest HW redemption of all times

Then he will be KO'd

If he lose than he will probably be as depressed as ever.

 

For all the nonsense Wilder has uttered i do believe he understands his limitations and knows he has only got one game changing weapon, "As I always say, these guys have to be perfect for 12 rounds, I only need to be perfect for two seconds, and then in the blink of an eye it's bam baby, goodnight!

So in a way his training camp has only one focus, finding a way of landing that bomb, while understanding and not getting disillusioned that it may not hit its intended target 99 times out of a hundred, but if it does land then it can short circuit any fighters neurological wiring for a while.
One trick pony yes, but it is all he has got, and let us be honest it is a helluva weapon to bring to a fight.

Wilder is the one who even went through the courts to get this fight, so unless he is a masochist or just wants one more big payday, i would guess he has a plan/belief he can beat Fury, as there are plenty of other easier opponents he could face and still earn decent dollars.

I however do think Fury will prevail.

 

Great analysis

 

If he knocks out the World Heavyweight Champion, after losing his belt and his five-year reign as champ last time out to Fury, it will most certainly be a great redemption. (Although, not the greatest redemption story ever, that's over the top. LOL)

The heavyweight division has a LONG history, and the number of guys who lost their heavyweight title and regained it against the same man who beat them is still not a very long list.

And, keep in mind, Deontay Wilder won the National Golden Gloves, the US Amateur Championships, the U.S. Olympic Trials, the Olympic Bronze, and the WBC Heavyweight Title all via DECISION.

So, Wilder won every major title he's held BY decision.

And he was one point on one card away from winning a decision against Fury in fight one.

So, as great as a long shot as it seems, Wilder regaining the WBC and winning the Ring title via decision would actually be how he won all his other trophies and belts, too.

 

welcome to boxing. I remember watching my first HW fights...

 

No, a crapload of defenses over mostly overmatched opponents is still better then ZERO defenses....I'm sorry, it's just basic math

 

Not if it kills the integrity of the belt in question

Maths dont come in to it

 

No. Because being a champ, or even just beltholder, you forfeit the right to face scrub after scrub. Once you get a belt, you shold face only the top guys (With an occasional gimme).

 

Just a point, no argument.

Mainly that the majority support Fury and forget that he is everything they hate about Wilder x4.
Correct the UK didn't support Fury then when he was talking extreme religious views to rid the world of Jews and Homosexuals etc. But there wasn't the outrage like there is with Wilder. People saying he is a disgrace to the sport for making allegations of cheating etc, or that there may be support for a Great White Hope. None of which are rare in boxing.

Wilder never ever has been as far down the hole as Fury. Yet the media and public forget his personality and its the same Fury, just sugar coated slightly. If Wilder wins they will probably forgot all his talk too.

 

By being champ you must defend that belt - Fury Failed
By being champ you must defend that belt against a top 15 opponent - Every Wilder defence was against a top 15 opponent, whether you like it or not.

Would you rather everyone who becomes champ retire?

 

Fury is defending against Wilder soon.

top 15 opponents?? I don't know if I can even bother with that part....

 

Fury's post presser interviews show he is still very much rooted in reality. He is a consumate professional like Floyd. He won't give Wilder a chance with over-confidence. Wilder is the most dangerous boxer on the planet in till you disarm him. Fury knows this. He expieraned it first hand to the highest degree.

 

I hope so for his own sake.

 

hey, olu. i need you to pm me an address where you want the program mailed to.

 

Lol what are talking about? The whole of the British media were up in arms and writing character assassination piece after character assassination piece in the wake of the Klitschko win. You think people bashing Wilder on twitter and YouTube comments is comparable to a national media campaign? Try having a little perspective.
