    Haha UK Fans are deluded to the core. 1.5M Buys for the two Haye-Bellew Fights Combined. That tells you UK Fans are brainwashed as hell.

    It dosent need to do high numbers in the UK, as US PPV is involved. Remember 300K UK Buys=1M US PPV Buys due to the pricing difference.

    It needs to do a solid 500K in the US, which is the main market for this fight. Wilder got 1.2M Viewers on Showtime for Ortiz and Stiverne. With some talk shows, using CBS and ESPN it might do a decent number

    This.

    It's clear what's going on.

    The Wilderinas are so desperate for some sort of legitimacy for their man that they're convincing themselves that Fury is as good as he ever was. That Wilder knocking out the fat ghost of Tyson Fury is some sort of career defining win.

    Well ... I guess it is. But not in a good way.

    Eddie Hearn is the reason why this is PPV. He offered Wilder 7M for fights on DAZN. Now Showtime have to match that, the only way this is possible is through Showtime PPV. So well done Hesrn, indirectly making it more expensive for Americans, you utter S.O.B

    I hope the man burns in hell.

    Fury will struggle without the PED's. The coke and drug binges will hinder his previous athletic abilities. He will be fighting at 70%, against a even more devastating opponent than old gun shy Klitschsko. Lol, pull out Tyson, before it's too late.

    The whole rounds thing is a big myth. Boxers get more than enough rounds sparing. Fury needed to up the pace and knock the guy out regardless what round. He should had at least tried to tko last round no excuse then about not getting the rounds.

    He is in for a lot of bother if his punches cant hurt Wilder.

    Wilder is going to light him up like a bonfire on Guy Fawkes. Fury is cashing out.

    Fury was never a harder puncher, he won every minute of every round without even trying.

    He wasn't going for the knockout at any time in this fight, it was a light sparring session for him, his stamina and movement looked great and he was clearly holding back.

    Fury raises his game to the level of his opponent.

    He is not at his best at the moment but the version we saw against Pianeta is still a notch above every fighter
    on the resumes of both Wilder and Joshua except Luis Ortiz and Wladimir Klitschko.

    He could have tried for a knockout in the later rounds, and looked a lot better. Fury took a guy the distance Wlad toyed with and Chageav took out in one round. It looked like a sparring session, so I read.

    He's conducting the worlds greatest ever exercise in deception. 'Failing' a drug test, putting on 8 stone of blubber, feigning mental illness, pretending to be rubbish against fifth rate opposition, all part of his fiendish maskirovka, a plan years in the making, a plan that only Fury's inner circle know as:

    Operation Trap Wilder

    Fury looked pretty good.
    He's not a knockout artist.

    While rounds is so important to Tyson Fury after his lay off, a knock out at the end wouldve been good.

    I think Wilder wouldve knocked out both of Tyson Furys last 2 opponents but that doesnt mean Wilder would beat Fury. We have to wait and see on that one.

    I expect him at solid 220 Pounds, he was lighter against Ortiz but still had his punching power so it probably won't matter anyway but 220-225 pounds is imo the best weight for him.
