    I think Fury, it's written in the stars, no doubt about it. And that's weird, cause everything points towards him getting ko'd within one round. He's going to be close to a good weight when November/December comes around.

    We're about to find out whether Wilder can overcome someone who has all the traits his previous opponents haven't had pretty much. Movement. That will be the biggest test of all. Can he setup a right hand without a jab against a moving target or will he left clueless? Time to find out.

    I wouldn’t want to get in front of it but he hasn’t thrown it in 3 years if it’s there so can’t agree he’s got it in the locker and saving it for one fight.

    It'll be funny seeing big John Fury charging around Vegas telling people to mind thier manners and threatning to knock out Wilder and his team !

    Wilder K.O

    Similar story to wilder ortiz...tyson will outbox him at times and probably be up on the cards, but he will get caught....its a shame because i like tyson a lot and believe he can beat wilder...just not yet

    I think Tyson will improve massively again and will win the fight. I feel Wilder is more dangerous than Klitschko was because he will take more risks, but will get hit with more power punches as a result.

    Fury is cashing out so Vegas will be a ideal venue, wilder will knock him out and fury will return to his depressed state with his fans claiming him to be a top three heavyweight of all time.

    I went for Fury points. Up until last night I was Wilder KO. Fury's performance isn't what changed my mind, I was just reminded of the sheer physical dimensions of the man when I saw him standing next to Wilder.

    Klitschko hadn't fought a man as big or bigger than him in years, neither has Wilder.

    Fury is also very good at using his arms to take the weight off an opponent's shots, and his speed and footwork can completely bamboozle opponents. I don't think Wilder has the ring IQ to deal with that.

    Then finally, the mental games. Fury is the master at it and I know it's early days, but i get the opinion Wilder is mentally fragile and mightn't be able to handle the mind games Fury brings. Wilder could be a beaten man before a punch is thrown...

    Of course all of the above said, he could land a right hand on a rusty Fury and end things in devastating fashion... great fight.

    Fury is so overrated by some people. One good win over Wlad, who IMO wasn't as good as the Wlad who fought AJ.. The fight Fury vs Wlad itself was so boring to watch.Yes good skills from Fury that night but he doesn't hit that hard considering how big he is and still think that chin is suspect. I don't think Wilder is great but i think he knocks out Fury in this fight.

    Looking at his corner team of Davidson, Hatton, BJS, Big John, young Issac and Gazza I can only see this going one way but Fury can never be written off.

    I'm a huge Fury fan but this has all the hallmarks of a David Haye style cash out. I think they got offered a fair few quid and grabbed it with both hands.

    One thing is for sure if it is in Vegas you want to be in that after party team.

    I will still be backing him at the bookies.

    Fury UD. I feel he'll be ready and his movement will be back to it's best in time for the fight. Wilder had all sorts of problems when he fought a mover (Szpilka) who is a couple of levels below Fury until he walked right until Wilder's signature right hand. Fury's too smart to makes mistakes like Szpilka did in big fights and he'll make Wilder miss all night IMO. Fury wouldn't take the fight I feel if he didn't feel he was ready for it, his antics throw people off when really he's quite intelligent.

    Fury already has his foot in queue at Nat west ready to cash his cheque and retire for good.

    He’s clearly not the fighter he once was, he has improved since the seferi fight and will improve again but it won’t be enough

    After two rounds of Fury’s cringe worthy showboating Wilder will tko him

    Also warren saying the fight is a done deal and it’s on? Wouldn’t surprise me if it doesn’t go ahead
