    Thanks. That latex glove did nothing as I recall viewing. What? Held cold water that wasn't even making contact with Tyson.

      Normally you would think that wilders power would be reduced because he will be punching up in this fight (assuming he head hunts as usual) and that may be a factor, but wilder throws that right hand from a crazy angle (ie from way over his shoulder) that the effect will likely be the same against a bigger guy (fury). While I agree with most on here that wilder will win by ko, I don't think it will be the blowout most people expect. Looking forward to it for as long as it lasts

        More recent example of this was Andy Lee vs BJ Saunders. Lee went from crazy odds on favourite to underdog in the two hours leading up to the fight. When you see that, combined with both boxers being travellers fighting in the UK on a Frank Warren promotion, you just know the fix is in.

            Even Gerald Washington could outbox Wilder.

              And to think Tyson kept Snowell for 2 More fights and he was still in his corner after that. They like everybody thought Tyson was going to knock Douglas out in the first round.

                You would prob. like the book I just read: The last Great Fight about Tyson and Douglas. Excellent.

                  Why bring in race? I'm a country white boy. One of my favorite fighters is Floyd I absolutely support Wilder. Yea some fight fans might be raciest but majority of fighters especially elite fighters are black. Lots of white supporters. I love the fight game I don't give a **** about the color. And don't come back with some cheap 1%crap because you are wrong.

                    totally. not gonna work on wilder. wildernis gonna have a really hard time gettin his hands on fury, but hell keep trying to hit him, and eventually hell hit him.

                      Still. Wlad is a much better overall fighter with equal if not better power than Wilder. He can also knock you out in other ways, whereas as Wilder only has that right hand.
