It’s just all that weight and fighting on the front foot now. All a case of size and momentum. This is why he wanted to be 21stone + for this fight. The more weight he has the harder he hits and the better he can take a hard shot. Hopefully for himself wilder doesn’t get the fight into the late rounds
I think Fury's size advantage is his best advantage but we've seen Wilder knockout equally as big a dude even when he's the underweight guy. So I don't doubt Wilder's ability to KO Fury if he lands clean. The problem or issue for Wilder is that he needs to throw a lot more and not shell up when Fury gets aggressive with him. At this point, he needs to fight fire with fire and throw back. It is his best chance to let a bomb slip in. If Wilder thinks he can just attempt to "box" or keep Fury at bay, that won't work.
Who's chin is worse ? That's what this fight is all about. It's 2 knockdowns a piece. Can Wilder beat Fury ? Usually skill wins. And Fury out skills Wilder by a landslide. But sometimes will beats skill. Does Deontay want it that bad ? I think once he gets tagged hard, he'll be hesitant. If Fury wants an easy night, he must tag Wilder hard early. Just a reminder. Wilder has only one chance, a knockout blow. Everyone is all hyped about Wilders power. But examine who he was knocking out before and during his title reign. It's almost comical. Most overrated " power " in the history of heavyweight champions. The problem is, Fury's chin is also suspect. Both fighters are severely flawed. Fury less flawed. Fury 8th.
I've said this many times b4. Ppl say why does Fury hit hard all of a sudden? They say it's glove manipulation, hog testicles, Wilder says it's a Juju (roots, voodoo). Nope. Fury is 270 lbs, has big hands and excellent skills. When the right fighter walks into the right trainer's gym, things sometimes happen. Sugar took a man with natural ability and added correct technique. Now Fury knows exactly what he's doing and why he's doing it. Most fans don't realize that boxing is truly a sweet science. The UK has a lot of coaches, but not many teachers. Over there, they can teach creative new ways to get ur face broken but that's about it. Sugar Hill is Kronk gym. A gym that makes punchers. Thomas Hitman Hearns, Lennox Lewis, Gerald McClellan, and many others over the years. Sugar Hill previously trained Adonis Superman Stevenson, one of the hardest punchers u ever saw. Fury works hard and is very intelligent. Seeing how fast and how well he was able to pick up Hill's teachings, i believe he will only keep learning and getting better. This is why I feel like Deontay will have some more Juju coming his way in a few days
Fury has fought like he did in the Wilder rematch a good few times in the past. Maybe you didn't watch?
Also, it was Fury who wanted to fight the way he did. Sugar didn't teach him anything new. Just focused more on it.

Agreed. KO ratio doesn't mean a thing if it's against weak opposition. Remember David Price? He knocked out folks left and right until he faced gatekeeper Thompson. And he did even knock down Thompson (and some of his later opponents) before getting (T)KOed himself.
