Fury looked fine, he was clearly just trying to get rounds in, trying to box clever. No matter what he says, he's not going in there to knock out Wilder, that's too risky. He's going in there to outbox him over 12 rounds, and this fight was good practice for that.

I just can't see Fury getting out of the first 3rd of the fight. He would need at least another tune up but against a stronger caliber fighter before thinking about Wilder. I think Wilder knocks him out spectacularly and then won't budge on his 50/50 demand with AJ, and we may, unfortunately, miss out on the biggest heavyweight fight since Tyson vs Lewis. I pray I am wrong though.Comment

Fury showed that he still has decent upper body and head movement, and also footwork. But against Wilder, Fury would have to make better use of his reach advantage, and avoid being pushed against the ropes or cornered - otherwise, he will get KOed.
Fury is a technically much better boxer than Wilder, BUT, as raw as Wilder is, he has self-confidence (especially since the Ortiz win and also due to AJ's reluctance to fight him) and also killer instinct. That, is combination with his stamina and punching power make Wilder the clear favourite in my opinion.Comment

My grandma used to cook blueberry pie and did gardening in her yard, and SHE still today can punch harder than Fury....And she's been dead for 15 years.Comment

Reminder, Pianeta was flattened within a round by fat, old Chagaev and stopped by the old, washed up version of Kingpin Johnson. I realize Fury was trying to get rounds in, but that's no excuse for not getting a late stoppage. Pianeta wasn't bothered by a single punch landed by Fury other than the one at the beltlineComment

Tyson Fury have the perfect style to upset Wilder. He need more rounds to his game
That is a boxing clinic for you. I feel that Tyson Fury need 3 tune ups to practice that south paw stance and using his body to bully inside that we all witnessed against that Italian. If Fury got more rounds, he ready to humiliate Wilder in a section open for box schooling.Comment
