Furys the type of fella you'd want beside you in the trenches. A laugh, doesn't give up, proper tough. Telling ye, He's got this one and if he hasn't... It's robbery
Fancy Wilder to knock him out but not really got any confidence in any prediction. Can only see a Wilder KO or Fury points win though, got both at 6/4 a week ago. Don’t know what they are now
Wilder has to give Fury 3 stone apparently. If that’s muscle and not flab, Fury - who has by far the better technical skills anyway - to win by knockout at around 5/1 looks quite tempting.
Does anyone think Fury has the power to knock Wilder out? From what I've read he doesn't. That means outboxing him for 12 rounds and trying to avoid a big punch... Hard to do for that long.
I’ve seen Wilder severely rocked before, so the answer is yes, as Fury is a 20st 6ft 9” heavyweight. However, it’s not the outcome I’d have any dosh on. Wilder by KO or Fury on points is the choice imo.
Any heavyweight has the power to knock another out imo. Wouldn't bet on it tonight though and I also don't buy this nonsense about Fury going hard early on for a knockout. Not going to happen.
Will Fury carrying that weight affect his speed and stamina also? As Ruiz showed too much weight and your not as effective.
Fury has come in over a stone heavier than their last fight, but so has Wilder. But both look toned so it’s likely merely muscle bulk. Will it affect their stamina over 12 rounds? Depends on the pace of the fight and their conditioning tbh.
No chance Fury is winning on points... fighting in American with a American referee and three American judges!
Can't see it lasting twice rounds anyway. Fury says he's going for the knockout and with him agreeing to the all American officiating, he probably feels he's got to take that approach.
I think he could potentially outclass him enough to not really make it an option. There'll always be one though which is why I'm considering Fury by split decision at 9/1.
He won't, he's a much better boxer than Wilder so why would he give up that advantage and play into his hands early in the fight? That's how you can lose these big fights and Fury is too smart for that. It'd be like Atletico coming to Anfield for the second leg and going all out attack.
