    Neither. They like each other and they are just trying to get ppv numbers up.

    Foreman from possibly the Greatest era of Heavyweights we have ever seen...Wilders era is suspect to say the least.!!!

    It hasn't flipped too much. That was how far it's gone since it was announced (on the site I use as a reference). BUT, in the past couple of days, it has still been inching away in that direction. A week ago Wilder was -115 and -110. And he opened at +125 and as of right now he's -125, same as when I typed that last post.

    So it's still basically even if you're just picking an outright winner.

    I can say I have a lot of friends interested in this fight, which surprised me a little. Most of them are people who typically watch boxing only once or twice a year, but some who never really watch have even expressed interest in hitting a local bar that's showing it. Not that this means anything, as my sampling size here is less than a dozen people. :lol:

    so obvious that the fighter that wants an easy payday runs into a shot or leaves himself wide open in the first round... getting KTFO in 1 is less brain damage than taking 12 rounds of shots to the head!!

    Not everyone can train hard for six months to pull a Wlad Klitschko performance where you don't get hit by jabbing and running, staying out of range, full Octopuss grabbing if your opponent gets close enough to hit you... Against Fury the strategy didn't work because the referee wouldn't allow Klitschko's regular fighting style or Klitschko would have won as usual...

    besides, Fury has a 3rd fight in the bag so why even bother training for this one?? I see a possible easy money dive in this one, he may get up like Stiverne did to make it not look so obvious then crash to the canvas again...

    the counting in Fury's head will be all the $$$ he made for a couple minutes work laughing all the way to the bank...

    and still having a 3rd fight and WWE scripted fight career Gravy Train ahead of him...

    Reminds me of GGG vs canelo 2, or ward vs kovalev 2.

    The Americans have no shame, when they cheat once they will just cheat harder the next time.

    It doesn't matter, does it? he is not going run remember? he is going for the KO.
    pre-prepared excuses for when he loses, ffs this is getting beyond ridiculous now.

    I think if anyone won the prefight it was Fury... but I dont think it will effect the fight much if at all.

    No, that is Deontay's younger brother, Marsellus. The one who got KTFO recently.

    Lucky for him, nobody knows who he is so he can carry on fronting like a gangster wannabe.

    me too. I never can understand how this can help anything for him to say that. If he loses he will mention this probably.

    It depends from which point of view we watch. I think Wilder seemed more confident than usual and thus may have scored among people who watched the press conference and the fans.

    But does Fury actually care? And can Fury lose mental wars? I think Fury is immune to that kind of s*it.

    Could be that Wilder is overconfident.

    And the guy at 2:09 behind Wilder looks like Mike Tyson with that beard haha.

    This guy in the red sweater is Wilders mate Christopher Bates. Some personal assistant who follows Wilder everywhere he goes and acts that he can barely hold Wilder back when things get hot.
