    Why Loma? You brought up the fact that I only mentioned EE fighters, actually I directed my post towards the fans. So, since you brought up the Loma/Lopez fight, I used that as an example. As far as me being biased towards foriegn fighters. Look at posts I have made about Kov, Golovkin, Loma. I never said anything bad about their skills. I never went against them because they are not American. Like I said before. I go against them because some of the over the top fans. That's it.

    I think it's more of a banana skin than the 2nd fight.

    I think Wilder was planning to use the tactics of the Ortiz fight by thinking Fury would box off the back foot so planned to lull Fury into a false sense of security by not throwing the right hand until later on in the fight and then throwing it later on when he had slowed down / wouldn't be as alert

    Fury instead went on the front foot, it threw Wilder's plan out of the window and we all know what happened.

    In a 3rd fight I think Wilder comes out looking for him early doors.

    Well, they aren't considered as unbeatable even by a lot of their fans from EE.
    For example the same Kovalev not likely had been considered as unbeatable and GGG too, they are not worse than Canelo, just Canelo is in prime and does have good matchmaking. Prime will be gone and then there will be another boxer etc. History repeats.
    For example DLH had liked me a lot, still he get lost fights after good winning streak in title fights. Floyd Jr liked me, his KO power had declined after he get damaged hands and moved up in weight classes and was older. A lot of fans today are calling MM ( ex PBF) as pillow fist. Damn, I really laugh about this sometimes.

    Not too many fighters move up and keep their power. At some point in Kov, Golovkin and Loma career, they all looked unbeatable. And there is a bias against them in the US. Too bad, these guys bring a lot to the table.

    You make a solid point, however I think if that is the case Fury can just jab him to death on the outside and confuse Wilder with movement.

    There is also a pretty good chance Wilder takes a clean right hand from Fury and all of his mental and physical progress goes out the door, as he knows he is about to relive the worst beating he ever took.

    Read again: "Wilder's scripted combinations on the pads with the diver and yes-man Malik Scott will be of no benefit to Wilder whatsoever. At 36 years old it's much too late to learn the fundamentals of boxing and as soon as Wilder gets hit he will revert to type. It could be a mistake even trying to teach Wilder the basics, as attempting to adopt a more orthodox style for the first time in a huge fight will make Wilder uncomfortable, predictable and indecisive."

    Scot Belshaw was the easier fight of his career.

    The title is probably hyperbole but not by much. Fury could have an ineffectual Wilder out of there in 2-3 rounds.

    More then the pad work he has to practice these things honestly in sparring in fighting conditions with heavy sparring partners pushing him on the backfoot and taking the fight to him. Someone acting as the referree, the more you replicate and simulate the real fight the better prepared you are.

    Personally I’m ashamed we need 3 fights.

    Are you serious? Wilder has been keeping in great shape, look at Fury, he looks like he's fallen off the wagon again and the flabby ******* is heading towards being badly found out.

    Wilder to win by KO inside 5 rounds.
