    It's one thing to be training hard and working hard on the mitts, bag but they don't hit back. He is just coming off his career worst beat down and usually a lot of fighters after nights like that are just never the same again. How will he react when Fury stings him with the first hard punch and jab? Will any punch ressistance he had ever be the same again?

    What i really wanted to see from Team Wilder and their camp is how he is doing and holding up in Sparring against guys significantly bigger than him, testing him and pushing him back, you have to prepare for your opponent in a real fight by making the best possible preperations in camp. Not sure if he is doing that.

    No.

    When fury starts putting it on him again, he will just go back to how he was, forget all this training he has been doing, it will count for nothing.

    The only thing that concerns me now with fury, is he appears to enjoy being a celebrity now.

    I fear he has now not only taken his eye off the ball, he has kicked it out of the stadium.
    Hope I'm wrong though.

    Maybe Malik Scott is a psychological genius but I think he would have benefitted from someone experienced training the come back from a KO loss.

    Look, Wilder strikes me as really, really stupid. He is a stupid man. Stupid men find it easier to lie to themselves; I think he might be OK.

    Why would Wilder or indeed any fighter in training camp show off their methods of overcoming the next opponent ?(if indeed Wilder actually does have one).

    Public sparring, training etc in front of camera is merely publicity, as Ali said "The fight is won or lost far away from witnesses behind the lines, in the gym, and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights"

    Wilder was already near tears with fury the second time. He will be mentally destroyed during the press conferences this time around after all that happened.

    Deontay's made so many improvements in training. Fury will become complacent in this one.

    Wilder in his year of quiet training has learned one huge skill; how to survive all 12 rounds and use the home turf to his advantage to get a split decision win over Fury
    :naughty2:

    Spot on, it's funny that one of his biggest downfalls in his immense thickness is what might save his confidence.

    Nobody was expecting Fury to KO wilder in the second fight, but it happened. Maybe now Wilder will outbox Fury :baloon:

    I don't disagree that this is a real possibility.

    Equally, if he lies to himself that he deserved to win the first fight and believes he was cheated in the second, he learns nothing - if he learns nothing, doesn't commit to figuring Fury out, doesn't train how to do damage whilst on the back foot and how to avoid Fury backing him up again... Well if he doesn't do these things, we could easily see a carbon copy of fight #2 and he'll get bulldozed again.

    If Fury decides to outbox Wilder. It will be good for Wilders confidence. He knows he will have time to land his haymaker at some point.

    Possibly,
    Odds are stacked against him.
    Still he has that eraser, but then again he has also had that in the 2 previous fights.

    I wouldn’t bet the house on it!

    You're looking at it from your prespective of getting beat like that. How you would react. You feel that you would probably be mentaly broken. Not saying it can't happen with Wilder, but some individuals use misfortune or humiliation as fuel to prove people wrong.
