    Touché but I still scored the fight a draw and in a rematch I’d favor Wilder. He just needs a better corner and strategy. Swinging for the fences wildly, not aiming for the chest, arms, body like he said he would, he made the fight harder than it needed to be.

      You're expecting a guy, who has done the same thing for 40 odd fights, to suddenly change his ways? You're better off using lottery tickets as a retirement plan.

      A better corner and a better strategy won't change the fact that he's technically dreadful, and doesn't have the grey matter to sort it out it out in the ring. As soon as plan A was fruitless against Fury, he had absolutely no clue what to do.

      And anyone with some grey matter themselves, could see Fury boxed rings around him. It's an absolute joke, and a disgrace to the sport, that anyone can see it any other way.

      And for the record, I can't stand Fury.

        You were wrong, actually.
        Fury was very nearly stopped. People who said Fury would outbox Wilder easily but could still get caught were dead on.

He will stick that jab and move. There is a possibility Wilder will actually get stopped. Wilder is just banking on a lucky shot, that won't work.
          You've never been sitting prettier, sir. Haha. Great call and honestly, a lot of this is just common sense. The Bomb Squad hype got to a lot of people. Wilder hits like a train but he's not great in any other area. And yes, the boxers almost always beat the punchers. That's why it's called boxing and not punching.

            Wilder fought the only way he was capable of fighting and the only way he's ever fought. There was no straying from some master gameplan; he got out-boxed and out-thought by a far better boxer, and in almost every situation where one man gets comprehensively schooled like that the rematch is even more one-sided.

            Fury won't leave things up to the judges next time, assuming there is a next time.

              I respectfully disagree with everybody that says Wilder been the same fighter 40 fights, can’t change.

              Difference he didn’t have to change. This fight exposed him on his fundamentals lacking, he relied on his power and athleticism.

              All I know is I don’t give a **** how nimble, a 6’9 target should not be unhittable by a guy with solid hand speed.
              A rematch with better timing from
              Wilder which he started to show more late, he makes easy work of Fury.

                Bobby, what happened? Ballsy prediction that ended out inaccurate. How do you feel about Wilder now?

                  Imagine if he actually knew how to box...

                    Fury schools wilder even easier next time around. Wilder is scared of tiring out. Any more exertion and he would gas out . His only option is to land a lucky punch .

                    Fury schooled him already and got caught with two lucky punches. Beside that wilder was outboxed. Next time around fury slips and clinches ,his footwork and headmovement are to skilled for wilder.

                    Furys chin is better than wilders power. He proved it by getting up twice and kutblximg wilder to fimish the rounds.

                      Wilder was just looking for that windmill ad he was boxed wasn't he? His eyes were puffy.

                      I have more respect for him because he is very strong ad can take a shot but remember few people gave Fury a chance.
