    So 212lbs for his upper body and a lb a piece for his legs?

    I love it how almost everyone here just acts like it's normal to come down from 240 or whatever in late 30s to 214.
    It is blatantly obvious he was PEDing to add that lean bulk and now it magically falls off because he doesn't think he needs it for this fight and is probably on something else.
    The guy is a lanky build, these types do not just add 20lbs+ lean mass like it's changing your hairstyle, and actually nobody does.
    Wilder is HIGHLY suspect at this point.

    Good weight for Wilder.

    I see him putting Helenius out early. Very early.

    Lighter than Usyk, but Usyk is middleweight, just because he is shorter

    How can a 6'7" man weight 214 and still have any muscle tissue is hard for me to comprehend.
    His legs are like sticks!

    This weight is much better for Wilder than the bulked up Fury III guy. If his head is still right for boxing, then I see a ko with 6 rounds. The Nordic Warrior will see Ragnarok this weekend.

    Don’t let the Kownaki fight fool you. Helenius is slow, easy to hit, and average chin. This should not make it past 6 rnds. If Wilder tries to play and toy with him , Wilder could get himself KTFO. What Helenius doesn’t lack is power. So I see Wilder going for an early KO and getting it.

    Does Wilder plan to wear that heavy gimp suit for this fight?

    It goes further than that: a couple of months ago Wilder was looking like a cruiserweight while posing with Hunter, just as Wilder was in the amateurs when he was 22. So it's not a 25 lbs weight range, it's more like a 40 lbs range, for a guy who is naturally very lanky and has little to no fat on him at any weight.

    And Wilder is a superheavyweight because he's, uh, tall!

    Wilder was regarded as having good stamina before he fought Fury. I don't think his stamina is that bad but he doesn't deal well with having a 270 lbs Fury ragdolling him and he has to bulk up 20+ lbs to even be semi-competitive in the clinches, which puts another strain on his engine.

    If he knows what's good for him he'll have himself driven to the ring on a golf cart.

    Good to see him come in at a more natural weight. It was a big mistake to come in heavier for Fury 2 and 3.

    I fully expect Wilder to crush Helenius without too much difficulty. Maybe a cagey round or two to get rid of the rust, but once he decides to set his feet and throw that right hand, the fight will be over with Helenius out cold on the canvas. Wouldn't surprise me if he finishes it in the first round.

    215 to 240.

    Fury still beat that ass.

    These bum ass heavys need to accept their true gods. Fury & Joyce.

    I was surprised to see him in the 230s for the trilogy which he gassed again.. I feel like that was his teams biggest mistake after the rematch.. I know it was funny to talk about his weight and chicken legs but it’s clear that he was more explosive when his weight was between 210-220..

    Fury is somebody that will always have his number due to his size in combination with his boxing skills but I always felt like he’d KO AJ due to AJs lack of head movement. Usyk can box circles around him if he doesn’t get caught.
