Just want to say that Fury's body work on Wilder was quite impressive, and led to the eventual beat down. That right hand, right by the kidneys, really worked Wilder over!
Masterclass Wilder couldn't beat him when he went for the decision in first fight... And when he came at him, couldn't beat him. What's Wilders plan C?.. Only got A plan .? That sh*t windmill .
This is the difference between a highly skilled boxer and a lucky puncher. The diversity and variety in tools and tactics did the trick.
He did everything well. Mostly, he fought over the top of Wilder's left hand and made Deontay a reactor. And because he can't counterpunch, it was easy work.
Well spotted. Fury fought a brilliant fight tonight and well and truly had Wilder figured out. The body attack, the mauling, the crowding, punching with intent, it was very impressive to watch. He took Wilder's legs and power edge away very early. Wilder drained very quickly.
I predicted the mauling, but I was absolutely shocked at his aggressive display from the outset. Complete domination.
I wouldn't say he's a lucky pincher as much as he's a one trick pony. Fury took that trick away and put a beating on him.
I said a while back that the way to beat Wilder might be to maul him from inside where he couldn't really generate power. I didn't think Fury had the game to do that though. Fury showed me something.
Well picked. I was leery of the weight and cut going in. should have known Fury is Fury. I hope the boys don't get silly excited in classic and rank him into the stratosphere just yet. Fury has his strengths but he also has some negatives and in the wash Wilder is a one trick pony even if it is one heckuva trick. Fury is in a great position tho. If he goes out and beats Joshua followed by a few decent defenses establishing himself as the man (which he is imo) he's knocking on some serious doors.
I wouldn't say they were beautiful body punches He did sneak a few good ones in there though for sure
If he beats Joshua he's the best of his era without question. All a boxer can do is beat the best of his era. Bring on Fury vs AJ.
