    So he’s changed his tune now Stevenson is in a critical condition,this is the same guy that said he wanted a dead body on his record right?
    That awful boxing channel Dontays boxing recently made a vid about this match up being all about race,idiot fails to mention how friendly these two are but why spoil his race driven agenda.
    Dontay blocked me the other day for pointing this out and how him going on about wanting a body on his record is far more despicable than the racism psy op.

    Theres no point in adding weight to compete with the naturally much bigger fighter. It's like me adding 20lbs in weight to fight someone who;s naturally 20lbs bigger than I. That fighter would still be naturally stronger than I at that weight. Wilder should come in at the same weight. Fury will come in lighter anyway.

    So he's saying he's either going to come into the rematch grossly overweight or he's going to juice.

    If he comes anywhere near 245 and doesn't have big sweaty dewflaps hanging over his breasts then he can STFU about the whole Povetkin situation.

    Wilder is starting to question his power, he already said obesity gives you an advantage.
    He's looking up to his heroes/fathers Fury and Dustin Nichols.

    Yes. He also bragged about making Lyakhovich have a seizure in the ring and wondering nonchalantly if Szpilka was dead. He strikes me as a man with serious disassociation identity issues; perhaps the talk of him and 'The Bronze Bomber' being different people isn't hyperbole after all. At any rate, he's seriously confused.

    Basically the rematch will be an overweight Wilder vs a slimmed down Fury. I'd say that favors Fury. Fury will be light on his feet whereas Wilder will be more sluggish.

    He needs to do some serious leg work. He could get to a comfortable 225ish by building his base, but as long as he's a one trick pony with the overhand right, the rematch will look a lot like the first fight.

    He wants totgain 35lba of muscle In 5-6 months?
    While getting VADA tested?
    While already having resistance training and weights as part of his regimen right now?


    A natural athlete is lucky to gain that much over 5 years and that's assuming he starts out untrained.


    Wilder has already lost almost 20lbs since the drug testing got serious.
    I don't see how
    1. Gaining that much muscle would be possible that quickly, naturally
    2. How it would do him much good against fury, he will gas harder, he will be slower.


    He needs to put on about 5-10lbs with an emphasis on his legs which were staggering all over the place as he got tired because of their lack of mass and stability

    I had a feeling this was going to happen(increasing weight)

    Fury is going to be in serious trouble in the rematch. And I mean serious Adonis Stevenson kind of trouble

    Another mistake from his team. They should have been building him up to it from years back. You don't just stick thirty pounds on a guy and see how he fares in a big fight like that.

    Guys like Joshua been tipping the scales above 250 for a while. Wilders team should have started making adjustments back then.

    He didn't say he's gonna bulk up for the Fury rematch. as a matter of fact, he didn't specify WHEN he's doing it... He said he wants to gain lean muscle mass, and that can take 1 year to gain that much cleanly... it will definitely help him in the clinches, and when his larger opponents are tying him up and fighting on the inside... Look at the Klitschko-Joshua fight.. U can tell that Wlad was only 10 pounds smaller, but in those clinches, he wasn't strong enough to hold on to Joshua, thats why he got his with that devastating uppercut... this will definitely help Wilder in those situations. He is critically underweight for his height.... His legs are like stick... he needs to get more mass in his legs.

    When it comes to his own conditioning I take anything Wilder says with a grain of salt.

    Good GOD Wilder Has to be the most juvenile-minded fighter to ever make the top level


    He comes across as if he has the mindset of a 15-year-old kid

    This will make him slower, and his power and speed will suffer from it. Fury trashes him and TKO’s within 4. Book it, quote this.
