Fury seemed a bit more rattled to me, but what do I know, the guy is all over the place. Pretty boring all in all, wilder needs to shorten up his speeches a bit.
Said he started camp 10 days ago which gives him a 7 week camp. That means he has been caning it over Christmas with the family. Seems like Fury simply does not care or has absolutely no respect for Wilder and thinks he will beat him easily. He definitely looked on edge but I think that was probably his usual anxiety issues. Respectful face off with handshake but I expect fireworks during fight week. They both turn into different animals.
Is there another presser? Fury was videoing himself out running over the Christmas so I don't think he went too mad. Hard to know where his head is at. Certainly doesn't look as happy as under Davision but I bet he'll work his arse off in the kronk gym up until fight night which should be enough to see off Wilder. Said he went with Sugarhill for power, predicted a second round knockout and mentioned that he's eating more than ever under the new nutritionist. I know he's a contradictory bullshitter but I honestly think he's coming to hurt Wilder. I have a Fury stoppage in my head, although it can obviously go horribly wrong against Deontay.
7 week camp for this biggest fight of your life? He has Brock Lesnar lined up for Wrestle Mania so maybe he doesn't care, combined earnings would be a cool $100 million in the bank. Having said that I had the same doubts first time around and Fury proved me wrong so I should go with the big mans judgement on this one. Wilder is a bum and can't box, all he needs to do is negate that right hand and he has pretty much won the fight.
Fury has a 7 week camp for the biggest fight of his career........and Anthony Joshua got dropped in sparring by a cleaner
I wouldn’t trust anything they say to be fair. Fury isn’t stupid enough to come into this fight unprepared though, it’s not just about losing a fight, he could get hurt in there if he isn’t on point. It’s just a load of talk, spinning the old I don’t need to prepare rubbish. Fury did seem more subdued than usual though, the mics being turned off so they couldn’t banter didn’t help, made it more boring as well.
Only seen the highlights but it looked like Fury was the more agitated, more worked up one of the two.
How many times has Fury said that this time he's going to turn up looking for the big KO, only to do the same old herky jerk. No different here. Just selling a few tickets.
He’s just saying whatever pops into his head. It’s why I never get people who say they like Fury’s honesty. He talks absolute grade-A nonsense that I doubt anyone including himself believes. Fury will produce another incredibly defensive, boring performance designed to see him win rounds with as little action as possible on his way to a decision. He couldn’t put Pianeta or Wallin away but he’s waltzing out and nailing Wilder inside six minutes? Alright mate.
I've not based my opinion on Fury claiming a second round knockout. That's typical fight hype stuff. I'm basing it on all the indicators that suggest team Fury intend to come in heavier. Fury's KO % above 260 pounds is higher and he visibly hurt Wilder in the first fight.
His KO percentage matters little when he’s stopping the likes of Sefer Seferi though. Above 260 Fury has fought: Schwarz Seferi Abell Chisora Nascimento Page Power McDermott Mrazek Gyongyosi He failed to stop three of them. 70% stoppage rate against a list that low in quality means very little.
Let's not pretend. Fury is going to come and dance and try to avoid the right hand for 36 minutes. I would do the same if I were Fury.
