Comments Thread For: Fury: At Some Point, I'll Have To Stand and Fight With Wilder

[Mindgames]

Remember you are going to have to throw punches in order to win or get a knockout Tyson. Playing a game of keep away will not win you this fight.

He's right however. At some point, Wilder is going close the distance, find him and then start touching and catching him flush.

When that happens all bets are off. Then the bout will turn into a firefight in which Fury cannot win. There's no way Tyson Fury can match the firepower of Deontay Wilder's. Eventually, Fury gets broken down and then knocked out.

Fury might not have to match firepower to stop Wilder. Hes got a shaky chin himself. This time he gets hit at a range hes normally safe at. By a guy whos young enough to keep going consistently. Wilders balance is awful. He's low workrate. He will have respect for Furys power and reach.

Fury at his best can knock Wilder out for sure. If I was Fury I'd be cautious early on and slowly start to attack that body. Smother Wilder a bit, lean on him and everything. Put water down in the basement, chop the tree down. Wilder has very good stamina but Tyson is a good bodypuncher and I think he has the upper hand on the inside and can tire Wilder out like this. Box at range rounds 1-6...if Tyson is still standing then he should try to rough Wilder up. A boxers punching power shouldn't be underestimated, just ask Bellew and Linares when they got stretched by someone 'who didn't have power'. Wilder can dish it out but what if you take it to the big puncher? Will be an interesting fight regardless...hope Tyson can pull off the upset

Wilder getting on my nerves as if a ko is a foregone conclusion that's all he talks about! As if he isn't vulnerable himself and a ko in waiting.
But yes, fury will have to fight fire with fire at times. You can become predictable in defence and offense is best defence sometimes

I would take this with a pinch of salt. Fury would be Fury or try to be.

Yeah, but thats why its so hard to do late on in your career for your biggest fight. Wilder has never showed any ability to bodypunch, and hes got a very low workrate. I remember Haye convincing all the experts that he would change style for just one night vs Wlad. That hed be a Tyson type destroyer just one time and go for Wlads fragility. But when he got in there he sat back and tried to counterpunch as always. Wilder will do the same thing he always does come fight night, it just shows he knows hes going to have big problems with Furys style and range in this one.

I think it's possible that Fury gives Wilder problems but at some point he'll have to keep away from the power and combination punching of Wilder and I just can't see it happening for 12 full rounds. And as far as the body punching goes, I explained it. Taller fighters put themselves in danger kneeling down to land body shots on shorter fighters and Wilder is 6'8". He has been taller than everyone he's faced until now. It's not rocket science dude.

It is a foregone conclusion if Wilder doesn't get injured on the way to the ring or something. lol

Fury can trade with Wilder, hes’s a lot stronger than people think

If Fury is around by the 8th round he would have earned my respect.
Only way he wins is in his dreams!!!
