    Looks like Fury's mind games might have worked?
    Wilder often goes backwards if an opponent advances. Now he wont have the room to jump back, which he often does with gloves down.
    I can see Fury ending it before the final bell now

    Don't really think this benefits either fighter much. Fury will have less room to move about, and will be closer to Wilder's power, but then he's better on the inside, and will find it easier to get there.

    Fury might be looking to use the extra weight and strength to bully and maul Wilder on the inside.

    However I am still sticking with Wilder late KO.

    It’s about 16.5% for ring size and 4.48% for the weight, 72% is probably wrong too so, going by normal mathematical calculations, Fury’s chances are higher.

    Until you include what he’s been up too for the past few years and what he looked like in tune-ups into equations, of course.

    50/50 fight, I tell ya’, if Wilder wins he deserves massive credit... since it’s opponents names that matter, not level of skills and overall physical condition.

    Wilder might regret this when Fury has him on the run.

    Or the guy with the almost 40 pounds on him smothers him ? Furys goal is to control center ring with the jab so........Wilder has made things more difficult for himself if Fury goes through with that game plan.
