    Could be mind games to make the K2 camp think he's unmotivated.

    Just sayin.

    Wlad had his misses in a psych clinic for pmsd and a new born baby, not taking anything away from fury he is a top fighter and wlad is old, but he deff should win the rematch ud easy

    How many lbs can we expect Fury to have dropped coming in at weigh in?

    10 weeks... 10-15-20 pounds?!

    I'd say nearer 30. He's a giant if a man so it won't take much to get his metabolism up and running if he's training hard.

    ya im not as big as fury , im about 6'3 220 pounds but if im not training i gain this weight which seems mainly like water weight and easy to lose fat

    in a week or 2 of eating right and exercising i can lose a 15-20 pounds pretty easily

    only thing is trying to lose that kind of weight while training for a strengh and endurance sport like boxing is very difficult. that will eventually be furys downfall if he doesn't manage himself better fights

    Fury did look out of shape and appeared to not care about the fight at all. Thing is Wlad looked totally unmotivated himself during the British press conference. I fear we'll get two guys in the ring who don't care at all and deliver another 12 rounds stinker.

    Lewis dedicated himself to boxing and cared a lot about his legacy, he is absolutely nothing like Fury. Not sure how you even came to that conclusion...

    His weight gain is clear evidence that he is telling the truth.

    you don't think it requires a level of dedication for what fury has achieved in boxing?

    fury always gets this fat if he's out of camp for months. That's his lifestyle manifesting itself. He isn't 100% sure he can win against Wlad a 2nd time so he's forewarning with the excuse that "I don't care if he chins me and KOs me...I hope he does" that's preparing to lose or at least accept the possibility is high.
    Wlad is a top professional athlete who lives the life of one. Furry is a part timer.

    Fury = Buster Douglas 2.0.

    I think Klitschko was unmmotivated to win the press conference. By the nature of the questions, it was obviously a hostile environment, and into a non-native tongue to boot. Give them to the best of circumstances he's not going to win a war of the words with Fury. I would be very surprised if he is not motivated for the fight itself.

    Disagree. If there's one good thing I can say about Mayweather (other than he is a great fighter) is he was very disciplined in training and in the ring. He never took his opponents lightly and treated them all like a challenge in the ring.

    Yes. Mayweather is the king of gym rats.
    No. Lennox was not always disciplined. He came in overweight (for him) more than once.

    Even if Fury is in shape he's going to get the sink chucked at him and I doubt he survives what's coming. Wlad has single shot knock out power in either hand, Fury defo doesn't.
