    he's obviously faster and probably has better stamina. not saying he would win but gaining weight in the 2nd and 3rd fights was not the best thing to do

    He came in at every possible weight against Fury and he was in pretty good nick for all them bouts

    Fury was in a state for the 3rd bout and not up to speed for the 1st bout and still got the job done.

    It will always be excuses with Wilder's ability to beat Fury. You can't beat the GOAT with a punchers chance.

    He would have gotten knocked out earlier in the third fight. The weight enabled him to absorb more punishment and keep fighting.

    Having said that I like him much better when he’s lighter.

    Would Fury manhandle the hypejob easier in the third fight if it weren't for training camp fraught with misfortunes, illness, and a sudden operation to boot?

    Yes, he would.

    A lighter Wilder would have been easier to ragdoll.

    He came in light and was in the best form of his career for Baptism I and he still got baptized in his own church by a inactive drug-ravaged muscle atrophied shell of Fury who hadn't fought anyone with a pulse in three years and had to shed 140lbs of blubber to even get himself into that shape.

    Next excuse

    Try the spiked water bottle or the too heavy cosplay costume

    The question we should all be asking is How did Wilder pack on 30 pounds of lean muscle mass on that skinny frame? PEDS

    Tyson Fury is epitome of perseverance and utter self belief.

    Yet Tyson Fury is very humble and a realist, not deluded. The Gypsy King however is unbeatable.

    Wilder needed extra mass to survive the hedgehog eating beast. The mass prevented him from being ragdolled.
