^^^ This. Never have I seen a guy jump out nowhere, get a title shot by beating no one, and staying champion by avoiding top ten fighters in their prime. Yet he has. His fans are okay with it. His entire career is riding on the fight, and no-- it would count if the judges screw up a decision. Like I said before, his managers are A+. Wilder is a special puncher, but that's about it. He cannot box, and I think avoids top ten guys in their prime who can punch, as his chin won't be able to deal with it. Yeah he beat Ortiz, after waiting him to age. 3 years ago, Ortiz is winning that fight.
Nothing to say? Well, there is VADA testing for this fight, however, they are not allowed to talk about it. What a bunch of BS. So either guy can test positive and the public won't know. What's the point of a VADA test then? My question is this. Can Wilder pin legs support 231 pounds without tiring? Fury is a fool. He comes in fat when his best path to win is to box and move.
The weight seems irresponsible for Fury. I hope he is not just trying to show up and give it a shot to knock out Wilder and then get knocked out himself.
If Fury gets dropped you know hes coming right back up and using Wilders face as a punching bag for 12 rounds
273 is too heavy for Fury.....in his so called "masterclass" against WK he was significantly lighter.......I say it again , fury was in the best shape of his life in the first Wilder match.and he did not come in at 273 ....he aint in the same shape now...the proof is in the pudding....273......was he "training" with Andy ruiz at a Taco stand......it is and always will be a bad omen when Heavyweights come at career high weights in career defining fights.
I don't like the extra weight on Fury. He was so effective in the first fight because of his mobility. I get the Theory of being stronger in the clintches but that is not his game. I am leaning Wilder via mid to late stopage.
I just hope the weight does not dictate the style of Fury's fighting. Can he keep up the activity with that weight? If he stays a little longer to land a hard punch he can get countered. I remember that he hurt Wilder in round 8. They didn't say much about it, but Wilder was hurt. Fury does not have a lot of power, but who knows. He hurt Wilder but does he have enough to knock him out.. That is a big difference.
I think Lennox Lewis would stop both Wilder and Joshua early enough. Fury would be the toughest for him. That is a pickem fight. Yet again it comes down to the right hand and hurting Fury.
is it too late for me to say....Fury is going to get ko'd?.....nah...never mind I will stick with my other prediction. it is based more on the scientific method of wishful thinking.
