    You haven’t seen many Tyson Fury fights have you noob?

    The guys been gassed out on his feet more times that I can recollect.

    Admittedly, he didn’t gas against Wlad, but he did have double training camp for that fight after Wlads injury.

    To say he doesn’t gas is just ludicrous, and as far from factual as you can get.

    I’ve seen him fight plenty. If it turns out to be a very competitive fight, which I hope it does that extra 10 lbs will start getting to Fury in the later rounds. This is why Joshua wisely started coming in lighter in his last two fights.

    Theres a big difference between being gassed out on your feet as you say and being tired. fury can compete at a high level in the later rounds when fatigue kicks in. I have seen fury look tired but I have never seen fury gassed out on his feet and ive been following Fury since his fights first started being televised.

    he should have been a little less. I don't know if it hurts him in the fight, but in the later rounds and even during the early he might not be as fast. I still pick him to win by knockout.

    I actually think the weight is pretty much spot on considering where he has come from. Essentially the same as the Pianeta outing with improved conditioning. If he continued to loose weight going into this fight his body would be suffering even if it might look more aesthetic to the eye. The human body likes a stable weight and consistency and for the past 9 weeks that is exactly what Fury has done (plus conditioning).

    Fury is ten pounds too heavy and that is as surprising as it is disappointing. I think he's going to get destroyed.

    Good point and in fairness to Joshua his conditioning was noticeably improved.

    He quite obviously has more muscle in this fight, which makes the 'only 2lbs lighter' comparison a bit pointless.

    Wasnt he 247 for Wlad? So hes only 9lbs more than he was on the best night of his life. 9lbs, for a 6ft 9'', 3 years older than he was at that weight, is nothing to be shocked about.

    Joshuas condition was never a problem . He actually never made adjustments to weight bc he fluctuates from 244/249 on average but you don't pay attention as usual, because it varies depending on opponent.

    Joshua was his heaviest against Wlad to combat a strength advantage should it end up an inside fight and Wlad was unable to control Joshua that's why he didn't attempt many clinches.

    Stamina and endurance is gained through round experience ,being a certain weight takes TIME to adjust to...Joshua never went past 7 rounds either before Wlad , this would tire anyone out after receiving a great Wlad right hand in round 6 and having to get up as well...if you boxed you would know this as well as style like Joshua who is an aggressive counter puncher needs better physical ability at 245/250 because he is burning more energy being most muscle.

    This probably goes over your head anyway, you seem to have trouble grasping common sense most of the time , its a newb thing I guess ? If anything weighing 250 in his 19th fight ,minimum rounds experience and getting dropped and lasting 11 rounds from never going past 7 SHOWS you how good conditioning Joshua is as well as his power punch count is a lot higher then average HW which ALSO requires better fitness..but that's to logical I guess ? lol

    Its a different type of fight as well. Theres no reason to be below 255 for Fury. Wilder doesn't present the footwork Wlad did or range control,fury being lighter vs Wlad was an entire different fight. A heavier fury will be able to bully much lighter Wilder so why not take advantage of it and make it even more difficult.

    Wilder at 212 vs Wlad at 240 is entirely night and day. The weight of 257 for fury is certainly an advantage, even to arguably absorb a punch better from a lighter guy who I don't think does hits hard CLEANLY like Wlad and on the inside Fury will rough him up if it goes there.

    God I truly can't wait to come back and see you eat humble pie on Sunday morning. Hopefully it will put paid to your moronic rants for a bit although I doubt it.

    And I put money on it, one of the excuses you wheel out after a few days or weeks will be that Fury was too heavy.

    I think it's a good weight for him right now.

    Losing more weight this year might have weakened him.
