Wilder walks away from face off reminiscent off Wlad walking out the sauna?

    Fury recycling a pair of 70s curtains is to be commended tbh.

    Means nothing. These guys are pros and these events are just shows to sell the fight. It’s boxing’s version of pro wrestling.

    I would like to see Fury battle Wilder in a sauna contest in the lead up to this fight. If the promoters actually did a novelty sauna battle, it would probably generate a lot of hype, believe it or not. People would absolutely take an interest in such a strange duel.

    But now that 'Sugar Hill' has confirmed the Fury - Wlad sauna battle did happen, and indeed that Wlad had always been last to leave the sauna before Fury showed up, that he HAD been dethroned ... Wilder and his team would want no part of Sauna Fury.

    Haha, Fury BROKE Wilder there. That was hilarious and devastating. They barely even need to fight now, Fury has already won the mental battle which is 99% of it.

    its all an act, these two are buddies, Wilder was laughing sitting down with no attitude because they are probably close imo..Blagging the fans

    Who’s promoting this fight? It’s pathetic.

    After watching this stare off, I legitimately fear for Wilder's life.

    You say it's meaningless but that's because you've never had the weight of the WBC EMERALD SAUNA CHAMPIONSHIP BELT around your waist

    Looks like a promotional thing, I doubt either fighter took it seriously. I do believe Wilder when he says that he'll retire if knocked out in two...mostly because there ain't no way Fury can do that.

    And I so hope Fury gets knocked out himself, tired of his style and personality (no offense to Fury fans).

    REALLY? Maybe check out that 12th round knockdown of Fury again. If anyone should fear for their life, it damn sure ain't Wilder. Look at Fury's eyes in the video....the referee's motions helped him come to. Otherwise he was toast.

    I heard Wlad brought Deontay into the sauna but he was hopeless and left after a few minutes. Feeling bad about the situation Wlad then gave him a cake to say sorry for bringing the heat to him before he was ready.

    They both like each other clearly. Any animosity is for show. Been clear they respect each other ever since the first fight was announced in the ring.

    Wilder didn't really walk away, he just doesn't give a **** about stare downs.

    I'll say it again for those that clearly got to excited and missed it.... Wilder walked because fury blinked. You can hear wilder say.. "you lose, you blinked"

    I did try looking to see if fury did blink but can't tell.

    Not that it means much, really! Lol

    The fact that Wilder walked away meant little, but his actions straight after in putting his hand out almost in an apologetic manner said a whole lot! He's scared of this version of Fury, he can see/ feel Fury is way more confident this time and likely gonna be faster and hit harder now too! Shook!! Didn't even bother trying to intimidate Fury in any way or talk in that Whisper killer tone!! Fury has messed Deontays head up already!! Mostly because deep down Wilder knows he's going back in with a man who already beat him!!

    Did you want them to stare at each other all day?
