Comments Thread For: Wilder vs. Fury: Tyson, Holyfield, Lewis Give Predictions

[thack]

Can't see my man T. lasting the distance here but if anyone can then it's him! I think Tyson will win most everything until he gets tagged dropped and stopped....Hope i'm wrong!

Fury will knock himself out cold

So many boxing icons but all giving bad reasons for Wilder winning. How hard you hit don't win you fights. Especially against somone with the know how of Fury, his size and pedigree.
If they had of said I think Wilder wins as Fury is too rusty and gone backwards too much since his time out, that would be a more valid reason for thinking Wilder wins.
But I think Fury wins if I had to go with someone. If Wilder won it wouldn't shock me, but rather surprised me, but only a little surprised.
Id be thinking well done WIlder, you pulled it off when I didn't think you would. You are in fact pretty good even though you didn't beat Tyson at his best.

Pedigree? really?:

New to the sport, eh? Welcome.

Wilder has the speed and athleticism, along with the power to defeat Tyson Fury. IF Wilder decides to work the body early he will definitely set up the K.O. in the later rounds,, but if he Head Hunts the first 1-6 rounds then he might not ever catch Tyson Fury.
I believe Wilder and his team have a good game plan and will execute it. Wilder by KO

Fury may box well, win some rounds and frustrate Wilder at times. But at some point, Wilder is going to catch him and kayo him.

It’s hard to envision a Windmill not landing at some point. Fury isn’t as mobile and nimble as before.

I think Wilder's output will be very low for the first 4 rounds, just like Ortiz. I think this will be very cagey the early rounds from both. Wilder will hope to take Fury deep and step it up later. He won't take silly risks while Fury is still sharp.

I've said it many times but this fight won't go how people think. I think Fury will take the early rounds but Wilder will take more risks once he realises he's being outboxed. I can see both fighters going down in this fight. I just hope we don't have any refs jumping in early.

If Fury is in the shape he fought Wlad, Wilder will struggle to win a single round. All this talk about Wilders lightening pace, did he watch the Ortiz fight ? Ortiz is a plodder and Wilder did nothing to change the pace, he can’t because his feet are terrible and his range control sucks. I’ve said it before, Fury is by far the better boxer, better boxers win against power. If he’s in shape he wins.
