Wilder has the physical tools but not the brain to beat Fury. Fury proved against Klitschko that he's one of the smartest fighters in the sport, able to shut the highest level guys down with his feints and footwork alone. Wilder to a degree poses a bigger risk to him as he won't react to the feints in the same way as Wlad, but Fury can deal with anyone once he gets into their head. Wilder's not exactly the hardest fighter to figure out, style wise. His qualities come in the form of physical advantages, speed, explosiveness and power.
If Wilder lands on Fury there's no doubt he does damage, and his unpredictability might cause Fury some problems in the early going, but once Fury learns Jonty's rhythm it'll be a one-sided schooling. There were stretches in the Duhaupas fight where Wilder was made to look like an amateur brawler, throwing wild swings that Duhaupas had no troubles avoiding. If a guy of Duhaupas's calibre can do that to Wilder then there's no doubt Fury would absolutely embarrass him. The danger comes in avoiding those wild bursts of aggression and sneaky one twos that Wilder likes to throw against the ropes, though again I have full confidence that Fury will prepare accordingly.
