    I am hoping Wilder has recovered, but he took such strong beat downs and is coming in rather light for this fight. Before Wilder would have won easily. I'm not as confident this time around.

    He had to bulk up for Baptism III in order to be able to carry the weight of his cosplay costume

    Yeah. He was too light. Too in between. Then Too heavy.

    When the answer was simply The Gypsy King is too good for him and he's just another mortal man born from their mother who could never beat Tyson Fury

    In the first fight Fury was a 20% shell of himself and still won 10 rounds

    Sorry! I love boxing but spending $75 to watch a meaningless fight is not worth it. It seems anytime a half way popular guy fights, it's a PPV event costing $75. I mean, there are not world titles on the line, no shift of power in the division. Back in the day, the only PPV fights were Hagler/Leonard, leonard/Hearns, ODH/Trinidad, Tyson/Holyfield type events. Fights that let the fans know who the top guy was. Now, anyone that has a following on Twitter gets a PPV fight.

    No because if he does he wont be able to throw combinations like Rocky Marciano.

    Putting on more mass and keep the stamina has its own proper way of doing it. I still think the main reason for gassing out faster when a lot heavier is mainly cause of his legs. Then adding the fact he was always skinny, so deciding to get heavier as an athlete at his age... Hard, not impossible, depends on many factors.

    He doesn't look drained, he probably has an insane metabolism.

    I prefer to see it at this weight rather than that of Fury II and III.
    But for me he was at the top around 100 kilos against Breazeale and Ortiz II. There Helenius can shake him like a doll in the clinches.

    This fight ends in the first round, helenius probably gets clipped hard then he realizes hes going to get knocked out so he goes forward and knocks wilder out.
