Hmm. NSB says I'm crazy thinking Wilder has a shot? Here's Wilder doing jump rope like NO other heavyweight does or can

[KingGilgamesh]

I’m shocked boxing fans think jumping rope means “him fight good” (caveman talking). LOL

I'm not a massive fan of jumping rope...but thats because I'm not particularly amazing at it. But it is a shoe in for good footwork (unsurprisingly I'm not the most nimble fighter either . I have never, EVER known a boxing trainer who doesn't either encourage it or include it as a staple in any training session.

Jesus...as I keep wondering, it seems like a lot of you haven't even ventured to a boxercise class let alone been in anything resembling a gym.

Whilst I still think Fury is the favourite, a lot of you seem to be assuming that he wins this fight just because. Fighting/boxing/MMA doesn't work like that. Never has and never will.

[DaNeutral.]

Anybody saying Wilder has no chance is mad. He is without doubt a worse Boxer than Fury there is no doubting that. But with his fast hands and disgusting power you cannnever fully rule him out against anybody.

Yes I'm a real Wilder hater but I'm not blind.

I’m not saying jumping rope isn’t a good exercise. It just doesn’t define u as a fighter. Ive seen guys tear heavy bags off the chain but in the ring. Their not near as impressive.

I think NSB has just noticed your bets lose way more than they win.

I mean I'm not going to deny the latter statement for a second...hence why I'm not drawing any major conclusions from the stuff I've seen so far in his camps.

Fury is also effortless with it tho it looks awkward due to tall he's.

The crap Wilder is doing on this thread is below average. The OP must be trolling Wilder.

Then again, Wilder posted it to his r3tarded fans like ****ty pad work that showed how abysmal his left hand is.

Fury would only lose if the fight is scripted - Wilder doesn't have a puncher's chance in this fight. He'll get beaten worse than the last time. His fraudulent overrated power doesn't even bother Fury since he took all Wilder's best shots in the last fight before beating him like a thief.

Isnt Fury doing double unders the entire time too? Hence why he's jumping higher and looks more awkward. Also surely it's not important how silly you look but how effective it is for cardio, footwork, hand coordination etc.

RE; the bold.

Remember, Breland said Wilder never did jump rope.

It's telling you that Malik is pushing the guy back to basics and training him on fundamentals, the only thing he's ever lacked.

Fighters don't change over a decade of habits in a few months. He will resort back to instincts in the ring.

I've watched the video 3 times and I'm still waiting for the spectacular thing nobody else can do,either that or I'm missing the punchline

However I'm hoping he does polax fury then smash joshua just to put and end to this trash division and furys mouth

[QballLobo]

I’ll have to see it to believe it. I just don’t think Wilder is disciplined enough to have the gameplan he would need to beat Fury. I think he’ll get frustrated early or even dropped then will just revert to what he is.
Props to him if he pulls it off but I just don’t see it. If he was 5-6 year younger maybe but not where he’s at and not even having any tuneup fight to adjust to a new style.
I met Wilder when I was in San Francisco for Super Bowl 50. He seemed like a cool dude. Nothing against him but styles make fights and Fury is just all wrong for him.

Classic thread title, can see it getting bumped a lot in future
