    Talking on glass it makes me laugh @ all those who said Fury chin was glass after Steve Cunningham.

    Finally wilder exposed !!! As this eras courage tshabalala !!! Yes he can crack but that’s it !!! Low volume punches per rd !!! Horrible pawing jab !!!! Shelley Finkel did a good job getting this guy rich with the least amount of danger —- but the gig is over !!! He’s done stick a fork in him !!

    Deontay was always skillwise an amateur but with the handspeed and lethal power to see him through against journeymen and middle aged Cubans. Just managed to squeeze past an out of shape, rusty Fury first time round but against an elite, in shape HW the weaknesses that were always there got truly exposed. Too old now to improve and the fear factor is gone, the power will still be there and will see him through against opponents the calibre of Ortiz, Brezeale and Szpilka but against HW's on the upside of their career DW will no longer be the force he once was.
    AJ and obviously Fury would now be heavy favourites against him. Usyk not sure.

    Definitely exposed and overrated and Fury burst his bubble, Finkle did a great job with Wilder conning the public, it's like going to see your favourite rock band only to find their not singing live, a total con and a fraud.

    At least he didn’t spit out his gum shield and quit...at least there’s that.

    Aye, yesterday I said Wilder was the Happy Gilmore of Boxing but perhaps he's more Milli Vanilli.

    His weaknesses were exposed for sure. Plenty of people have said he can't box for years but we've never seen anyone prove it so emphatically until now.

    Wilder is a one trick pony, launch the right hand by stepping in quickly and landing a bomb. But push him back and extend your left to prevent him stepping forward and he'd suddenly without any weapons to hurt you with. You then get inside and expose his lack of an inside game.

    Every fighter that fights him now will know this and try to repeat Fury's tactics. Not everyone will pull it off, but those with the tools to do so will now beat him.

    Wilder is terrible

    No plan B ever

    What changed since the last fight? He just added 20 pounds of muscle... but no other ‘improvements”

    He barely threw any punches....

    Fury did exactly what Whyte intended to do... jump
    Wilder early

    Fury was 50 per cent better than last time he improved everything

    Yeah, it's something I've seen for ages but none of his opponents were able to accomplish it. I used to think it was because he was doing something that I wasn't picking up on, but now I realise it's because his opponents were mostly dogshyte. Wilder really has nothing if you can keep the jab in his face and press him onto the backfoot. His counter shots are terrible because he lacks the timing or crispness to land them, and his inside punches are just average uppercuts and cuffing behind the head shots which can be dangerous but nowhere near as dangerous as his right.

    Joshua would absolutely wreck him with a very simple jab one two game, and Whyte could possibly win if he keeps things disciplined and doesn't go for any of his wild lunging hooks.

    One fighter was thoroughly unprofessional while the other was the absolute consummate professional. Everyone can tell who was whom. To be honest Wilder being gifted a draw was the worst thing for him, if he had been given the loss in the first fight, it would have forced him to make some serious changes but by giving him an undeserved draw he felt his power would bail him out again

    Fury's chin is sturdier than many of us thought. Wilder's chin, on the other hand, is just as fragile as we have been saying! Nichols and Sconiers exposed him years ago, but the deniers still fought the obvious! WIlder is, and always was, A GLASS JAWED FRAUD!!!!!
