Comments Thread For: Frank Warren: Wilder Disappointed, Fury Beats Him

[BOMB ZQUAD]

Fury vs Wlad will be an entertaining fight nonetheless.

Wlad is much more aggressive against bigger opponents.

Sometimes one has to read between the lines. If your on Wilder's team right now and have some sense you are faced with the following: A guy who has a big punch but by today's standards is being super hyped. You are probably thanking your lucky stars that Wilder, despite being limited was able to beat Stiverne....and you are wondering how to get him to the next step.

You might say "well lets give him a few stiffs to get him ready" but then you are reminded of your fighters limitations when your "gimme" opponent connects. So what do you do? who do you put in front of your man? Wilder should take the Chisora route, fighting often, and lose a few, get experience, and learn to develop the capacity to press for an entire round, develop defensively and get some skills but that won't happen because its easier to hype the guy.

He has talent but needs a lot of work even in this weak division.

Wilder has his weaknesses but Povetkin won't be the one to expose them. I mean it's all great to talk about strategy against someone like Wilder and how if someone can get inside and outbox him on the inside they would beat him easily and all that. Which I agree with.

Problem is how is that done? As Tyson famously observed, "everyone has a plan until they get punched int he face." I mean all of his opponents were going to expose Wilder until they were eating jabs and massive right hands and getting put on the canvas. It's easy to conceive a gameplan against Wilder, not so easy to execute. Especially when he's five inches taller and outreaches you by 8-9". Wlad never puts together a whole mess of combos either yet he hasn't been threatened in years.

I do like Fury's chances against Wlad.

Why?
Did Cunningham not knock Fury down ?
Is Cunningham not really a cruiserweight ?
Does Wilder not punch harder than Cunningham ?
Fury may win, but in no way is the other poster an idiot !!!
You are showing your arrogance there mate !

it is f**king idiotic to think Wilder would win against anyone with a pulse.
