    Fury'' s game plan vs Wlad only looked well executed due to Wlad not being able to pull the trigger. Wilder will windmill and Fury will fall over if they land

    I dont think there is a single person who wouldnt want to see this fight. I just doubt they actually make it in to the ring together, for one reason or another.

    Yes people always seem to like discussing who is A side and who is B side/who deserves what percentage of the purse as if we're part of the negotiations or something.

    I wish they'd just hurry up and fight. The HW fighters could learn a thing or 2 from the CWs.

    Well I think the better question is... why is it happening?

    Two big names, two big reputations. They are both betting on themselves to win, so what makes Tyson so confident and what make Wilder so confident? Both have something to lose.

    It's an interesting fight don't get me wrong, but how much is Deontay making on this fight when Hearn offered 6-8 millions for a Whyte fight??? That is annoying.

    He ducks the supposed 'peasant' Whyte, and goes for a ring rusted Fury and banking on his inactivity to be the better man on the night.

    Fury is a durable guy, moves well... but Deontay has that special kind of punch power that can knock any mans lights out from any angle.

    The Wilder-Whyte thing is very simple.

    Wilder went after AJ. Hearn said “fight my other guy instead.” Wilder agreed to fight Whyte if AJ was next if he won. Hearn said, “No, it doesn’t work like that.” Wilder said F it. He went after AJ again. Again Hearn comes up with (not a contract or offer btw, he SAID he would offer Wilder X dollars to fight Whyte.

    Basically Wilder is saying, no, I’m not going to fight for Eddie Hearn if he isn’t going to make the AJ fight. And he wants no part in being hidden away on Days Inn streaming, which Hearn needs Wilder (obviously, he’s obsessed with Deontay) to try to make it work in the U.S.

    Wilder-Fury is a much bigger fight than Wilder-Whyte. No question about it. They’re talking PPV in Las Vegas which is a helluva lot better than Days Inn streaming. The Wilder-Fury winner can force an AJ fight on fair terms.

    The biggest reason for Wilder and Fury to fight is it takes AJ’s two biggest potential fights/paydays off the table. Wilder and Fury believe eliminating the other leaves AJ with one big fight to make and Hearn will have to make it.

    Yes I want it. Both are overhyped guys, who have done enough to get into the top ten with their key win's being over an old man. Let them fight, the winner will have his best win, and hopefully fight the winner of Joshua vs Povetkin.
