Comments Thread For: Manager: Deontay Wilder is Training Like He's Never Trained Before

310lb. bench isn't all that impressive. The smaller guys I played football with in High School could do 10 reps of that fairly easy. And they were like 180lbs. Wilder better hope he trained those neck muscles to help his chin and strengthen those weak legs so his Wakanda outfit doesn't weigh him down.

Exactly, we used to do that **** in high school lol. If I were a 6'7" pro athlete I wouldn't be bragging about that I'd be trying to hide it haha. Great way to blow out a shoulder, especially with his ****ty form. He'd be much better off squatting and cycling to get those string beans in shape.

I saw it in a video on a Counterpunch YouTube video. He bench presses 310 lbs and then tells Fury that he needs to put on more weight lol

And he REALLY struggles to do it too!

Ta for the video. I suppose wilder psychologically will see any progress as a victory. I would have though he would press more but then his body isn’t made for pushing heavy weight so maybe I was too hard on him earlier

Out of curiosity, how do you know he’s pressing 310? It didn’t mention that in the article unless I missed it?

Wilder will beat Fury this time, by KO!

That would keep the heavyweight division interesting

Thanks but I think I’ll stay with that comparison. I’m still not impressed

An unfair comparison...you’re welcome!!!...You’re entitled to your opinion!!!...

[Oldskoolg]

Shane Mosley considerably had loads of EPO aka PEDS in his system to push that kind of weight as a smaller man...try for a fairer comparison next time...wouldn’t be surprised if Norris doped too...just didn’t get caught...

It really doesn't matter how much he trains tbh. He's TERRIFIED of Fury and no amount of training is going to change that. He shouldn't be going into the ring in this state of mind.

Bench pressing 310 lbs isn't going to make any difference to the price of chips once those punches from Fury start coming in.

Where has he benched 310? Even if he has for a HW that's not that much. There are guys who weigh a lot less than him bench more than that easily enough.

Fury's gonna **** teeth

I wrestle with my brain daily over this. Sometimes I think wilder is just fighting now for the wrong reasons. Other times I just feel somethings different Or maybe anyways. I dunno man, at heavyweight we know anything can happen. At the end of the day wilder has to win if he wants to keep the little credibility and respect he has left really.

Deep down we know why wilder didn’t want to answer questions. I saw someone comment on how wilder has been treat if indeed he is dealing with severe mental health troubles, and it opened my mind up. I’d never even looked at it from that angle. I really liked deontay the person long before been a fan of his fighting. I’ve gone off him these last couple years for the things he’s come out with tbh,

As a Fury fan I respect and admit wilder is still dangerous, styles make fights and id still back a fully confident and healthy wilder to stop both Whyte and AJ. If changes have indeed been made and he’s acknowledged his technical flaws, then we could have a truly memorable fight on our hands.

im gonna go for fury by UD. Wilder may have his odd moment but let’s see. Above all I hope both men leave healthy physically and mentally. Let’s hope we get a definitive outcome and we can all close the book on this trilogy!
