I like Big John but there’s no doubt about it. Big Glenn McCrory is without doubt the fittest and toughest 55-year old on the planet. Not many human beings can consume the level of alcohol and cocaine that Big Glenn McCrory can before knocking out 10 intense rounds on the bags, followed by a 10-round spar against two lads in their twenties round-by-round.
Wilder KO. If Fury is disciplined and focused and if it goes 12 rounds, Fury wins on points, but I think Wilder is going to connect at some point with his right hand and this time Fury will not get up.
This is really hard to call as we saw last fight. Fury is infinitely better defensively and also offensively (skills wise) but with nowhere near the power. Fury won the last fight for me but I have no confidence in him winning this one. 60/40 Wilder. I'm leaning Wilder because after that kind of knock down, his confidence has to be high and Fury looked like **** last fight. Not that Wilder didn't look like **** vs Ortiz, but he did what he always does.
As long as he doesn't come out swinging like Hearns vs Hagler as he seems to be intimating, Fury by wide UD.
I'll wait for the weigh-in to make my final prediction. I learned that lesson the embarrassingly hard way before Ruiz vs Joshua II.
I'm thinking Wilder on points. And I'm serious. Something in my head is telling me that's going to happen. This is making me change my mind and go for Wilder by decision.. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/boxing/51542181 Usually when you get talk of 'it's not possible, it can't be!', it means it'll happen. Every time. It's going to be controversial and dodgy most likely, but it'll happen. Maybe Tyson's eye gets cut early on and then he struggles, but survives 12 and loses a decision. And then they have a reason to make the third fight. That's the vibe I'm getting here.
The Wilder vs. Fury rematch could turn out to be like Hagler/Hearns Wilder is looking for an early KO, and Fury has put on weight and changed trainer also looking for the KO
