What adjustments can he make to beat someone with Fury. I mentioned this before but it's a shame Emmanuel Steward isn't around today because he could have been a great trainer for Wilder. He could be like the heavyweight Tommy Hearns but all he did against Fury was try and find the straight right.
He needs to stop loading up as much and adjust his target when Fury dips. Fury dips the same way every single time so he needs to lower his target on the right hand. Also, Wilder HAS to get his jab going. If he is just one dimensional without the jab then Fury is going to get away from his big shots with ease.
Fury is just so much superior technically that this is always going to be a difficult match up, but a few adjustments and Wilder can certainly give himself a better chance of winning.
He'll never outbox Fury as long as he's got a hole in his arse, so he just had to try and let shots go, but it's easier said than done. Fury's style freezes fighters. It's one thing saying it and looking from the outside, it's another doing it. But ideally he just has commit himself more.
Fury will probably be even sharper next time too. Less ring rust, confident and not coming off a 12 month fat camp.
He can't win.
The first knock down was a punch to the back of the head and was a flash knock down.
Tyson came back and won the rest of the round.
The second knockdown was due to Tyson messing around in the 12, inviting Wilder in and intentionally going back up against the ropes. Not apart of his his game place.
Wilder hit him with two of his best punches and Fury still got up.
Fury won't off plan like that again in the rematch.
Added to this, Fury will be fitter more in shape and sharper.
Wilder will duck this rematch, and claim he doesn't want to go to England.
He knocked him down twice. It's not like he couldn't learn from Fury's predictable movement patterns and catch him cleaner. Both guys looked pretty awful TBH. I think they both have work to do before fighting AJ.
He almost beat Fury and he almost knocked him out. If possible he needs to improve his punching accuracy and timing and put more variety in his attack. Of course he should work on not throwing wide wild punches that can be seen and avoided by a good boxer.

Hope fury goes back to abusing his body. And those KOs have long term effects lol.
Seriously though, he should put more variety to his punches. Fury made it easy to avoid them right hands all night. He should make the left hook a factor as well and lead with it. He should really mixed it up. It could confused fury at times, and get him off balance.
Wilder needs to stop swinging for the fences every time he throws a power shot. He needs to be more active with a variety of punches. He needs to vary the speed and power of his punches more. Also should not get carried away when he thinks the opponent is stunned- more patience. He might have been able to finish Fury last night had he not gassed out and walked into some counters.
He's never going to be able to outbox Fury-- he just has to let his hands go more and pray more right hands land. That said, he got buzzed a few times last night and that made him really reluctant to sit down on his shots
Actually use his jab. When he did it was effective. And throw punches down the middle and not so wide. Also go to the body. That’s it. Be patient and let the knock out come to him. The number show fury was more show than anything. It’s not like he ever hurt wilder. It was like watching a heavyweight Pauli fight. Light fast punches but even in punch stats it didn’t create a large gap. I actually like Deontay in the rematch. If he can make those adjustment. He needs to fight like he fought ortiz.
He knocked him down twice both went to 9 count with the last more like a 9.9 count.
Fury getting up on the last was a fluke of nature, he wouldn't get up again from that same hit.
The easier answer is to have more variety and to keep with his jab. Head, body, into the chest, off the shoulder, etc.
Fury has great reflexes and really good eyes, but Wilder was able to finally land when Fury was occupied with a bunch of stuff from the lead hand and finally kept his head in one headslot.
On top of that, when he does get him hurt, Wilder needs to keep a touch calmer and not smother his work; mix in a jab to the chest with the bombs.
Wilder probably is never able to put box Fury
Fury’s too big , awkward and his IQ is too high
So his best bet is to land the Hammer again but this time hope Fury doesn’t get up from it or at least hit him with the hammer early and often enough that it leaves no doubt
