Comments Thread For: Fury: Wilder is a Basketball Player, I'm Knocking Him Spark Out

[sportbuddha]

Yeah I totally agree but Everyman and his dog knows the tactics that Fury will attempt to implement so you can’t blame a fan to call him out on his bold claims. As a fighter you can’t claim to do something that everyone knows you wouldn’t dream of doing. He didn’t have the courage to stand and trade with Pianeta which is cool , it’s not his style. However,no need to sell wolf tickets

Yeah exactly but anyone who knows boxing knows the fight happens in the ring all the pre-fight BS is throw away. Of course he’s going to go in there and make it ugly, that’s his game and I personally think he might pull it off because

1. Wilder is not very high on the boxing IQ scale so will find Fury’s style bewildering. More telling than most people realise will be the 2inch + reach he’s giving away to Fury, he’s not used to that.

2. Wilder whilst unpredictable at times throws long punches and looping punches which Fury will field all night.

3. It’s the most skillful boxer Wilder has ever faced and the biggest, Wilder is not used to looking up to people and has tendency to look down when he unloads his big shots but this time, he has to reach up (slightly) to get the shot on target, will he lose some power adjusting style or lose some balance, I think maybe.

Fury is not lying.

Deontay was a a basketball player who got into boxing late.

You don’t actually believe that do you? I don’t doubt he wanted more rounds under his belt but when you throw a punch you throw with bad intentions. n

I'm sure he threw with bad intentions but I doubt fury was trying to force a stoppage. He could have thrown more punches and then I'm sure he'd have got the ref to stop it at some point.
But I think fury outpoints wilder. He don't need to stop him unless he's going to be robbed

I agree with all your points it’s just Tyson depends heavily on reflex and though his reflex responses are very good, his predilection to carry a low guard whilst evading punches will be his undoing.

I think Fury will make Wilder look even more pathetic than he looks in previous fights before the right hand closes the show and Wilder becomes the new lineal Champion...... Then gets hammered in April to Joshua

Wilder will brutally KO Fury in 7rds or less.. Fury will blame it on the early return. The End.

Fury is going to get slept by Lebron tho

I find it impressive that a Basketball player became a green belt champion after starting boxing so late! And somebody should tell Fury that though DW doesn’t have his skills he absolutely is the better athlete! DW unlike the other HWs matche Fury in size, and foot speed! His lack of technique is partly why he’s so dangerous. I’m taking DW by KO in eight or less!

[champion4ever]

Tyson already said he's going to use boxing ability and skill to KO wilder. You want fury to go all Nel o on Ggg on wilder do you? You don't want fury going all floydy on wilder?
I'm sure fury will mix it up a bit though.

He can run but he can't hide. Those pitty pat punches he likes throw; Deontay is going to walk right through them. Eventually Wilder will close the distance by cutting off the ring, forcing him to open up to exchange and trade punches with him. Deontay is going to put a serious whooping on this boy.

That's if he's clean and don't get popped for PED abuse . Other than that, I just don't see him moving around the ring for 12 rounds while getting touched up by Wilder; Without tiring and fatiguing as large as he is and coupled with the amount of weight he had to lose. It's going to weaken him physically.

"I beat men like you seven days a week. The Brits were afraid of you, the other s***house didn't want to fight you, but I fight any man born from his mother's c*** and you're no different. I'm knocking you spark out," Fury said

What a line lol that never gets old no matter how many times he says it lol

[AdonisCreed]

Fury is about to get sparked. It may take Wilder some time to figure him out. So I expect Fury to make him look bad early on but then I feel like his luck will run out and he's going to get sparked. I can see Wilder doing that ****** and weird hug it out sh**, while Fury is on the canvas that fighters do these days.
