Wilder can be fairly easily outboxed as we've seen with Arthur Spiltzka and King Kong but his equaliser makes him dangerous as hell throughout.

Wlad fought like he was waiting for the perfect shot, instead of trying to create the opportunity for it. When Wlad got in with AJ he refused to make the same mistake again so he let his hands go. Wilder has a decent jab, good hand, and foot speed, and a long reach. If Fury was a lefty I wouldn't give Wilder a shot, because he'd nullify Wilder's jab like Ortiz did. I think Wilder will be able to land that one shot he needs, mainly because he never gets discouraged and Fury will win most of the early rounds.
He looks sharp to me, and a lot lighter than he was against Seferi. If he still has his engine, Wilder is going to end up wishing he'd signed that contract Hearn sent him!

A fit and fight conditioned Tyson would box rings around W.....I don't think he is but I still give him a chance ....more than AJ. gives himself.....!
I hope this happens ,as T. seems he's prepared to put it on the line ...I used to like money man AJ.....not for me!
Hearn......I would always have my son box for.....I know he'd be safe!

This is possibly the worst style match up for Deontay Wilder because he will be facing an opponent with more physical advantages than himself and is also very mobile too. At least with Joshua you know where he will be at all times and that is the center of the ring at mid range.
With Fury you have a fighter who is more versatile. He could fight from short range while leaning all his weight on you off the front foot or by long range by moving around the ring from a distance off the back foot, making it very difficult to land flush punches on him in the process.

Fury is roughly 6'9", with longer arms than an orangutan. Plus he can move his feet. He'll give any heavyweight problems, especially when he's in shape, and he's a trickier opponent for Wilder than Joshua would be. It's an interesting showdown, and the best part is that Eddie Hearn is not involved. Hearn can only watch from the sidelines as the B-side starts to become an A-side. If Wilder can knockout Fury, the British public may finally start to demand a Wilder-Joshua fight. While the rest of the world salivates over the idea of an exciting Wilder-Joshua title unification showdown, British boxing fans only seem interested in that fight if Joshua can earn x-amount more money than Wilder.

I take nothing away from Klitschko, but he has never been known as a resilient warrior with the heart of a lion, so it's very telling that he was able to appear that way at 41 against Joshua. It was a good war to behold, but people may have came away with an unrealistic impression of Joshua. People who are overly impressed by Joshua's effort against Klitschko must think Corrie Sanders was the second coming of Jack Dempsey.
