    Wilder certainly gets off on fighting inanimate objects which explains the choice of his opponents to date (ok of course Nichols is an exception).

    If this Fury is anything like the one from Wlad fight Wilder's going to be punching air.

    If Fury wins I'll be amazed. He looks horribly out of shape. That said I don't rate Wilder that highly - although I see him as "pretty good" after the Ortiz win - so I'm not sure how much credit somebody beating Wilder ought to get. If Tyson in this fatboy shape can beat Wilder then he's probably going to go all the way and beat AJ too, assuming his mental state can focus for that long.

    Yeah, all he did was go to the lineal HW champ of 10 years' backyard and win every round, what a nothing accomplishment.

    If it’s the Fury of 2015 then he soundly outboxes Wilder. However, if he’s rusty, unfit, out of shape, and just hear for the cash, then he soundly outboxes Wilder.... but probably gets knocked out.

    Its more likely because of the position the photo was taken from, but they do look huge mind.

    Fury could be bending his knees.

    Did you watch that waltz, uh I mean the fight they sorta had? It was pathetic. Wlad punches could have been counted with an abacus.

    I did watch the 'fight' and it was a snoozefest but Wlad didn't land **** because of Fury's movement, height/reach advantage and control of distance. My original point still stands - Wlad was not shot and I think he proved that in the AJ fight, Fury made him look worse than he was by that point.

    Gee! who could foresee a fighter using movement and distance against a 40 year old. My point , is that his best fight was against a 40 year old man and THAT gets too much credit

    A 40 year old man who had gone 11 years undefeated, had more or less cleaned out (an admittedly weak) HW division and was WBA, WBO and Ring Lineal Champ.

    I can't see Wilder holding back like Wlad he will go in fast and furious attacking Fury , Fury will try all his usual dancing but i really dont see a repeat of his Klitschko win .

    Fury looking in better and better shape as the fight gets closer.

    All those moaning about Roach in the corner he is hardly going to change anything of what Fury has already done, camp is nearly over.. just over 2 weeks left.

    The closer the fight gets the more confident I am that Fury is going to win. Wilder seems a bit rattled to me. I can even see Fury dropping him at least once, not off a power shot but just catching Wilder off balance when he comes in with his wild shots.
