    Being a dosser is not a bad tactic

    Too late for that class
    He just needs to use his jab and set up for the bomb.
    I doubt he is listening to us as he has on his headphones :boxing::afro:

    None of these are possible for Wilder, he is who he is.

    Hatred. All he needs to do is really, really, really hate Fury and all technical concerns will evaporate.

    He has so many flaws it's hard to know where to begin let alone cut it down to which single improvement could see the greatest returns.

    I don't think he's ever going to out jab Fury who has a longer reach, a more versatile left hand and better movement. But maybe he can learn to take away Fury's jab making it harder for Fury to set up his right hand and forcing Fury to take more risks to land his own right hand.

    Currently all he does is try and slip the jab or back away which just means Fury uses his left to force Wilder to react and move into unfavourable positions to set up his right hand.

    He needs to learn to block and parry Fury's jab but not just rely on that either as Fury can disguise his left hook to look like a jab and that parry/block move can be circumvented by this, feint a jab, draw a parry to open Wilder up for the hook. Wilder needs to use a mix of slipping, moving, blocking/parrying and also use counters to make Fury less prone to throw the jab.

    Once he's limited Fury's success with the jab making him less aggressive he can then but only then think about landing the right hand. But Wilder's right hand is very predictable he needs to vary that too, come round the side as a hook at times but also come over the top with an overhand right a punch which Fury has shown some susceptibility too in the past.

    Wilder needs a bigger frame. Muscles will just slow him down and he is too Light The clinches.

    Don`t try the shoulder roll. Dip below Fury`s waist 100 times offdering him no legal target.

    Wilder kept biting on Fury`s feints in the rematch leaving his feet badly out of position, he looked drunk.

    Yeah your right. However, the third match is very important for Wilder and he really needs a good game plan. If Wilder gets knocked out again this time then he will have no future in boxing.
