    This is a tough call, about the ONLY thing certain is that SOMEBODY'S Glass jaw WILL shatter. Fury has hit the deck against featherfisted cruisers, but Wilder has hit the canvas against some of the most inferior opposition out there.

    All I can say, is whoever lands the first solid shot on the other's guy's fragile whiskers wins.

    Anything can happen in this and that's why it's a fascinating fight. Fury could come out more intent to sit down on his punches and go for the KO, but I doubt it. For a big guy like that his power is below average because he's on the move a lot. Wilder is not that hard to hit clean but his will and conditioning allow him to withstand punishment. He has never abused his body and packs an end all punch at any time.
    Fury treated his own body like some dosser in the gutter and then you can't expect your body to be there for you when you need it. I think we'll see results of that abuse late in the fight when Wilder takes him out. Fury already looked like he couldn't get his body to move and avoid punches like he thought he could, and that wasn't against a fast, vicious fighter like Wilder. If Fury wins this I'd be surprised and give him tons of credit.

    Fury was dropped heavily by US CW Cunningham in round 2 of his US debut under the lights.

    Fury was also dropped by Nevan Pajkic in round 2.

    Having said all that Wilder has been dropped by Harold Sconiers and Dustin Nicholls in previous fights. He was also out on his feet against Ortiz, with a long "doctors" delay at the beginning of the next round helping him clear his head.

    So both Fury and Wilder have been hurt and dropped against less than stellar opposition.

    Lol nothing like a bunch of below average ex-junior high school bench warming athletes verbally bashing two boxing champs. Gotta love armchair warrior constructive criticism.

    I never said anything to the contrary. BTW, I've seen all of Fury's fights and most of Wilder's so I don't need a re-cap.
    I believe Fury's KDs were more to do with balance and being unprepared for shots as compared to when Wilder has been wobbled and put down.

    Fury pissing around, not focused and getting flash knock-downs are a world apart from Wilder getting dazed and confused against Ortiz from only a couple of well timed inside shots. You believe what you want but until I see Fury staggering about or getting stopped, I don't believe he has a bad chin at all.

    Fury better have improved exponentially since the Pianeta fight or he's getting put to sleep.

    Boxing fans PAY the salaries of these fighters and have every right to offer critiques. If it was amateur fighting where some may be doing it "for the love of the game," then maybe you'd have a point. But as long as fighters are collecting cash, we as fans are well within our rights to offer our opinions on their flaws.

    And in the case of Wilder and Fury, it's right in their chinny chinny chins!

    I totally understand your perspective, still it dosent take away from the irony of reading and hearing the unforgiving levels of disdain expressed by folks that would crushed by the those absorbing the verbal abuse.

    Fury is going to finish what Szpilka, Washington, Durhurpas, Nichols, Sconiers and Ortiz started.

    Wilder stops him, this is a joke fight.
