    BT have done a great job promoting this.

    More hype for this than AJ-Usyk IMO.

    Weights are very interesting. Wilder who was gassed in last fight carrying 16.7st around, he has clearly came in even heavier, as he believes it will stop Fury manhandling him. I think he is wrong. Fury clearly is coming in to annihilate him as he said. Both likely to be a wee bit slower and easier to hit. I think most of Wilders power has came from how explosive he is moving in, I think with the extra weight he will lose that much needed speed, and unorthodox angles he springs from. I think overall weights suit Fury better. I actually now think Fury stops him inside 4 rounds.

    Fury hasn't seemed right for donkeys now. His face, his body, everything. I've been saying this for ages, and he still doesn't look right. Compare the way he looks compared to the weigh-in at the last bout. The facial hair doesn't help, granted. But his face is marked up, too. Nothing seems right.

    Wilder is a live dog against anyone in the division and I genuinely have no clue who will win this. I would not at all be surprised if Wilder has Fury crawling around.

    Would not be confident sticking money on either tomorrow - cannot wait to watch it.

    Fury is absolutely fine. He knows damn well that Wilder is mentally fragile and can be broken before the fight. He smells blood in the water and Wilder just cannot hide the weakness.

    So did I, I wasn't offended in the slightest but the fact he lost it like that says a lot to me.

    Is he edgy and nervous or just raring to go?

    People were posting the same about Usyk increasing weight before the Tony Dosh PPV fight.

    The extra weight was good for Usyk in the fight and no reason why Wilder cannot benefit from the same tomorrow. He looks in great shape compared to looking like a cruiserweight in the past.

    Really intriguing fight this one, have to remember there are always question marks around Fury going into big fights but he is just a natural born fighter and gets the job done. He has beaten 2 versions of Wilder already so I do not see what Deontay can do differently except land that hail mary shot. Also, Fury looks to have trimmed his entourage significantly and no sign of Andy Lee this camp.

    Seems like he’s trying to get himself up for it to me.

    He looked solid and imposing the last fight. A beast. He looks tired and old in the face and a bit skinny now which is at odds with the weight.

    Possibly reading too much in to it but the initial signs aren't great.

    fury has not looked right all week its concerning.

    not clean shaven wouldnt take his shirt off at the weigh in

    I dont know maybe he gets the job done still, but I have a bad feeling about this
