    After the 2nd fight Wilder sacked Breland and made some overall changes regarding his training team. At the moment Malik ''Yes Yes Man'' Scott is the head trainer for Wilder, but where is his former trainer Jay Deas?

    In addition to that, does anyone know who are included in Wilder's overall training and corner team for III match against Fury? Last match they did not even have cutman in their corner, which seems very strange. Also, Wilder's team seems to be very small compared to Fury's team which includes many well known names. It feels like that Wilder's team is full of amateurs compared to Fury's.

    Any thoughts?

    deas is still there in the background, i suspect because he probably got wilder into boxing and out of Waffle house so he keeps him around as a mercy hire. Don't know much about wilders training partners but he does have Robert Helenius .

    My thoughts are he is probably beating the **** out of cab drivers on a daily basis and building up confidence somewhere in Alabama while a whole team of yes men tell him he's amazing.

    Can he win? ya hes got a shot hes fought fury 2x and knows what to expect of the new fury, if I was his trainer i would just be having him spar all the time and tell people to lean all over wilder and let him beat the **** out of them....i would hire valuev.

    Hasn't Scott always been in and around the Wilder camp anyway? If that is the case, I really fail to see what new stuff is being brought to the table.

    Malik Scott took a dive against Wilder. In one round. When a punch slightly grazed his gloves. That's some next level being a "yes man".
