    It's really exaggerated about his elusive style. If you watch his fight he uses his size to disrupt a lot during the fights hence why most his fights aren't too exciting.

    I wouldn't liken him to his cousin at all

      I like Fury for his awesome personality but feel he's vastly overrated as a "pure boxer." He's really a big spoiler as already stated here with not many tools in the toolbox and little punching power. I'd be shocked if Wilder doesn't decapitate him.

        Go watch another sport.

          Fury is a pure boxer the likes we've never seen. His footwork, movement and feints are out of this world, especially for a man his size. Can't understand how anybody can claim to like boxing and not like him.

              I saw his first fight, when he was pear shaped. I’m not surprised he’s at the top. He’s awkward and he can box. He has cardio for days. Not heavy handed. He could make anyone look bad including himself. He has legit head movement. He’s hard to get too. Best be in shape if u fight him. Could be a long night. See what Wilder can do.

                    The windmills everyone describe's Wilder throwing are extremely hard to defend. Those punches are more unorthodox and very difficult to see.

                    He usually gets wild when his more orthodox punches land. He has a good one/two and he can punch underneath with uppercuts.
                    He does get excited and thats when he's most open for straight shots up the middle.

                    We'll see I think Fury vs Wilder can be entertaining, if Fury starts to run then it can be a stinker!

                    Not a bad assessment. But Fury won't make it out of the first.
                    He sucks to much.

                      Awkward mammoth with switch hitter stance who can dance and move his head like music is playing!

                      Quick for his size and very high ring IQ!

                      Wilder is in for a very tough fight, but he does have that thunderbolt in his right hand which if it catches Fury then he’s tucking him to sleep!

                      Can’t wait for this, tickets go on sale on October 3rd too!
