What excuse will Wilder use to avoid Fury?

None! Wilder will fight Fury. I'm more concerned that Fury will fake another mental episode to get out of the Wilder fight, much the same way he did the Klitschko rematch.

 

Pretty sure both of them fake injuries and pull out of this one, after crying and whining about Joshua for months on end, both of them go grovelling back to Hearn to fight Whyte and Joshua for an extra $50k each.

 

Look I’ve weighed in Wilder before but he fought Ortiz when nobody thought he would and re Fury I think it’s smart as if Wilder saw Fury’s come back fight then in his mind he’s probably thinking he’s got nothing to fear.
See what he’s like against Ciabatta first but this match up has taken everyone on the hop as Fury was expected to have about four duffers before he fought anyone of note and Wilder with Breazeale and possibly Ortiz again so this fight actually makes a lot of sense both not without risk for either but the gains are gonna worth it.

 

I can see where you’re coming from but Fury was fearing a Wlad that wanted revenge and would let his hands go like he did against AJ.
Re Wilder I genuinely think that Fury doesn’t think much of him at all which is dangerous as it’s Wilders unorthodox ways that make him so dangerous,Steve Bunce has said as much re Wilder v AJ n all.

 

why wouldn't he? Fury avoids every challenge. he is now just looking for drug money. both are manufactured bums.

 

any version was ripe for plucking. this version didn't land one single clean punch on a scrub 39 yo cw who had only fought four guys with (barely) over .500 records.

 

Doesn't need to avoid Fury. That's a good style for him since he will be dealing with a big target that's light fisted, and likes to keep his hands down.

 

No excuses needed, the fight simply won’t happen

 

If he avoids him because he wants to wait until Fury gets back into his former shape, I would applaud Wilder.

 

not sure it will be Wilder that pulls out. But for sure If/when this fight doesnt happen both sides will blame AJ & Hearn.

 

Fury going to get KO'd into oblivion.
