Wilder is vastly overrated, this all depends on how well Fury trained & mentally prepared he is.

Have you Henry the Hoover on standby?

Trainer is the problem here. A young lad with no experience at this level. Fury is in the best shape his ever been in. Wilder is sloppy. Very loose. Think fury can jab him for the night comfortably and win in 3rd gear.

Fury will have to knock him out. The yanks won’t give him a decisionover there.

How many rounds was ortiz up on wilder before the tko.

Wilder isn’t that big of a name over there.

Disagree, if he jabs the puss off him all night he’ll get a rematch at the very least & everyone’s a winner.

When was the last time we had a Drawn Heavyweight bout?

On at 12am my time so will be watching the pikey king. 40 odd pounds is a big old weight difference. Agree with harrys sentiments, don’t rate Wilder at all, he throws windmills, his technique is embarrassing yet he’s hw champ. I hope Fury has trained hard, because if he’s fit he should be beating this guy handy in a decision. Fury lacks power so I can see situation developing of Wilder throwing his looping right hand without fear of return fire and catching Fury on the temple, then stopping him in a flurry. I hope not.

Sure wilder and aj is in the next year regardless. If he looses his belt tonight he will have a chance for 3 in a year.

Fury is the mayweather of the heavyweight division - awkward cunt to hit with zero knockout power but comes out on right side. If fury has trained hard and looks like he has then he should jab his way to victory. I’ve a few hundred on him at 2/1 on points.

It’s hard to call. Fury took out klitscho but Klitscho’s robotic style was tailor made for him. Other than that who? Wilder also, who has he beaten? But Wilder I think is not just a wild haymaker knockout specialist. He has a jab. Fury is awkward, mobile and hard to hit but lacks power for all his size. Will Fury have the stamina after all his trials and tribulations to stay out of Wilder’s way in a smaller ring?

I’m coming down on Wilder’s side. Could be completely wrong but I think his power will get there.

Remember how poor Wilder was against Molina. He had only a few good punches at that stage and no balance. I appreciate he’s been working hard and he’s better now.

Remember how Fury coped pretty well with Klitchko’s power down the middle.

Remember the doing the Yanks gave Lewis v Holyfield.

Just checking the stats here, Fury had a 4 inch reach advantage over Klitschko but only has a 2 inch advantage over Wilder. Wilder is younger so in short it will be harder. He can do it though.

It should be said that Wilder is less of an all round boxer than Klitschko. I wouldn’t really be a big believer in Wilder’s ability to change it up which he will have to do after round 4. I have a lot of money on Fury.

Fire dropped 5 stone. He can’t be right. Knockout round 9.

I have no skin in the game but seems a couple of you guys do so I hope the knacker takes his culture to a new level. :slight_smile:

If you haven’t backed Fury and posted a picture of said bet slip on Social Media then are you even a real traveller :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Also for those with the IPTV,

See the “PPV Boxing” folder. Should be approx 10 streams there for it

It would be a bit of a pain to get up at 4am and not get a stream … though I suppose I could count it as an “early riser” for Monday!

Hard to understand the confidence in Fury. He should probably have had a warm up fight but this has all the hallmarks of Bellews last fight when he just wanted one last pay day. Fury has been out of action for how many years now and he’s coming up against a younger match fit fighter. There will be no hiding place for Fury in later rounds when lactic acid kicks in. I’m sure Fury will have all day but I expect him to be caught and legs might go then. As well when you see a guy roaring and balling at a press conference you know they are feeling it inside and Fury has been doing a lot of that.
