    Comments Thread For: Fury: Wilder's Footwork Is Terrible, But Has Massive Equalizer

    LOS ANGELES Tyson Fury doesn't consider Deontay Wilder more of a threat than even the 39-year-old Wladimir Klitschko that Fury defeated three years ago. Fury feels as though he upset a more complete fighter than Wilder when he out-boxed Ukraine's Klitschko in their November 2015 bout. Klitschko was a 4-1 favorite over Fury, but the 6-feet-9 Brit beat the long-reigning champion on all three scorecards to win the IBF, IBO, WBA and WBO heavyweight titles from him in Dusseldorf, Germany.

    Fury has the IQ. Pretty much everything he says is right, but just because you know all about cancer, that doesn't mean it won't kill you.

      I'm sick and tired of reading negative comments about Deontay Wilders skills! The 'Bronze-Bomber' is top of his class in HW stats! He lands to the most jabs in HW! How is he getting in position to land so accurately without proper boxing fundamentals?!

      Deontay is underrated, maybe the most underappreciated champion of all time. Tyson Fury, the haters, are in for a big surprise in few days!

        Wilders jab is the key, when he starts cracking it off Furys chin its the beginning of the end, Wilders hand speed and jab are very under estimated.

            Fury and Wilder's detractors are constantly dwelling on Wilder's
            technical flaws and unconventional style, but they completely ignore
            what makes him special. It's not just his destructive punching power.
            Wilder is a gifted athlete, especially compared to his lumbering peers.
            Wilder doesn't just look like an NBA player, he's just as swift, agile,
            and explosive as one. He's so athletically talented that he was able
            to secure a Olympic bronze medal, even with limited technical abilities.

            Fury is not without some advantages of his own, such as his deft
            upper-body movement, which looks extra impressive against smaller,
            lumbering peers. He also has good footwork, but he didn't look nearly
            as light-footed as he used to in his most recent comeback fights.
            Fury also makes some technical mistakes of his own, including the
            way he sometimes leans straight back to avoid punches, which he
            has mostly been able to get-away with because he is so much taller
            than the majority of his mediocre opponents. Even still, Fury has been
            put on the canvas by much slower, lighter punchers than Wilder.
            At his best, Fury was a very big man who was also a good athlete.
            He's used those attributes to beat smaller, more medicore athletes,
            but how much does he actually have left, and will it be enough to beat
            (or survive) against a tall, gifted athlete who is seemingly in his prime?

            They say 'speed kills'.
            And everyone has a high boxing IQ until they get punched in the mouth.

              Both of them are goofy. They don't call Wilder wind mill for nothing. It's that fearsome power, that straight right hand that keeps them off of him. I really don't want to see him box too much anyway. One, two and out go the lights.

                Fury does have it in him to go the distance without being clipped, but he takes some risks in fights and leaves his chin out when he gets confident and thats when I think Wilder will clip him

                  Wilder is this generational version of Primo Carnera, a freak show created because the American Boxing Establishment needed a great Black Heavyweight Hope to bring back African Americans to heavyweight boxing in the states.

                  Wilder entire career is a work, and don’t be surprised to see him get totally embarrassed but still win a decision from a corrupt PBC promotion or some quick controversial stoppage aka Andre Ward low blowing Kovalev.

                  Take notice who PBC assigned to judge and referee this fight.

                    I’m sick and tired of deluded fanboys like you who need a hero who relates to your ignorance.
