I didn't watch the fight, care to tell how the fight went? I heard it was great.. Did Wilder fought like he trained? or it looks sloppy just like the same? How action packed was it? Is it worth the money? Can you tell me in detail how the fight went?
Fury is one of the greatest that we have seen in a long time. It is not only what he has done in the ring, but the personality and intelligence that will be remembered. When he retires the H2H rankings will be changed dramatically. Not only by him, but by his opponents and contemporaries.
I made a post last year ...asking if it was time to create a super heavyweight division...and everybody laughed...but I stand by that statement
Think Foreman vs Lyle. Back and forth both men down, throwing bombs, dead tired but still pressing the action.
Wilder didn't come under and hook to the body like he showed in the build up. But he did from rd 1 go to the body with jabs and right hands more like in the first fight. Fury didn't do much in rd 1 and just backed up and had a look at Wilder to see what he would bring but finished the rd strong. The extra weight didn't help Wilder at all he looked tired from rd 5 on wards and he was as expected manhandled and leaned on throughout. Fury clearly wanted to exert his weight more in this fight knowing Wilder would gas with the extra weight. After throwing a right hand he would just clinch. Wilder was just inept in the clinches, he could of been 250lbs of muscle or even 280lbs of muscle and he would of gotten dominated in the clinches. Fury would just drive his head into the left side of Wilder's, move him onto his left shoulder to create space for the uppercut, collar tie with the left hand and then bam right uppercut. Fight was entertaining even though it was one sided. You can't ever right Wilder off with his power and in rd 4 it almost paid off for him. Fury's desire to walk Wilder down came at a cost it made him more vulnerable to getting caught coming in and in rd 4 he walked into a right hand that caught him on the temple. He got up but was down again soon after and saved by the bell. From rd 6 on wards it looked like the 2nd fight, Wilder backing up and getting beat on. Slight difference was Fury was still carelessly walking in at times and Wilder would catch him with the odd good shot. But Wilder took a beating the last few rounds much like the 2nd fight. Overhand right finished Wilder on the ropes and he face planted into the canvas but he still bravely tried to get up.
