    I say the next solid shot he takes will be his last

    What about the solid left he took soon after getting up?

    Ive totally come around on Fury and I'm a big Wilder fan. If they rematch I hope Wilder KO's him but dont think it will happen. Cant believe it took me so long to really appreciate Fury as a fighter. Someone that big, coordinated, fast, mobile, skilled, and defensively quite slick is a package ive never seen before. Lets be real, probably wont see another in our lifetime. A lot of people really dont understand how shocking a package it really is.

    Lol, he got up and won the round, buzzed Wilder too. He'll comeback better as well after shaking off ring rust

    So, Fury gets floored by Wilder, somehow beats the count and pretty much wins the rest of the round, part of which he boxed showboating. And yet in his next fight, when his opponent lands a 'solid' shot he is going to fall for a 10-count, lose and retire, never to box again?

    Errrrr. No.

    Lol Fury pretty much rolled off his sofa & schooled Wilder..

    When? Fury/Wilder round 12 second part of the round.. he got up & still outboxed him :lol:

    He then went to karaoke night & got pissed!

    Wilder fans in denial..

    Fury UD in the rematch.

    Wilder's shot was better than most,
    But he only connected with Fury's ghost,
    If they fight again and Fury's prime,
    Wilder's reign is out of time,

    And Deontay shouldn't moan or rant,
    Instead he needs a brain transplant,
    Find a fighter who understands,
    How to move their feet and hands,

    Take their brain and in its stead,
    Put what's now in Wilder's head,
    Sad to say it's not much cop,
    And wouldn't make for a fair swap,

    Er how about Muhammadi Ali being dropped by Frazier late in the fight of the century. He went onto obviously carve out a claim to being the greatest heavyweight of all time after that knock down.

    lol Donkey was in a much worse state after a tomato can named Harold Sconiers dropped him heavily and the only thing saving him from being KTFO was the bell coming to his rescue and even with the minute break it still ''took forever for him to recover''

    Fury would literally have taken thousands of harder shots than that on the cobbles and in caravan sites and he was back to himself within a few seconds of taking it. If Donkey had eaten a shot like that he would've been out cold for 45 minutes

    Depends bro, if he steps on the gas a bit more a TKO aint out the question for him, but UD as you say is more likely. There's a TKO in him but he might just box him !

    He will be talking like Evander Holyfield by the time his career is finished, due to that devastating ko

    lol Yep. Fury probably had in excess of 100 Donkey's on his on the cobbles record by the time he was 13 and at least 3 times that amount of actual real fighting men.
