    I don't know if Fury can do it but I hope he does!

    The British are WAY more sportsman-like.

    The yanks cannot be allowed any trinkets, after 1 day they're already power mad!
    Pretty much this^^^

    Fury is a better technical boxer - he has boxed since he was a child and has a good amateur pedigree.

    Wilder is a better athlete - real power but I think he looks a little limited in terms of combination punching and variety.

    I'd take a wild guess that 'Chin' wise they are likely to be on par with each other.

    It has the making of a good fight - but Fury would need to be 100% mentally and physically prepared to beat Wilder, especially in the US.

        Wilder Vs Fury would be very entertaining! The media circus alone I feel would be comical from Fury he can't help himself! Secondly both fighters will turn up to fight.

          The British are more sportsman like?

          Lol. Who can forget the classy gents that are Froch, Chisora, Fury, and Kell Brook. What group of nice gentlemen who never swear, rant, go insane,*or threaten people. What lovely ppl the Brits!

          Lol, the Brits are mostly just trash.

              Wilder has by far the best win of the two, and would knock Fury out.

                I don't see this fight as the blowout in favor of Wilder that many are predicting.
                In Stiverne, Wilder fought a fighter with a significant height and reach disadvantage, who had to accept getting hit in order to get in range. On top of that, Stiverne's strategy was to walk Wilder down without throwing, inviting shots that might give him an opening to counter. We know how that worked out.
                Fury has a slight height and reach advantage over Wilder, so he will have the opportunity to establish his jab and control the distance. He certainly will not invite being hit the way Stiverne did. It should be an interesting and close fight that Wilder can turn in his favor with his superior movement and power.

                    you people need to learn the difference between somone that is "hurt" or someone that got their attention.

                      We do have SOME blowhards... Wilder and Bonehead come to mind first... but certainly not all of our stable is that way.
