Comments Thread For: Wilder Says He's Studied Fury For Years: Style Has Not Changed

[MisanthropicNY]

My guess is that Fury will get robbed by the judges, and fan boys on here will exotically justify it in posts.

Both should be commended for taking this fight...I can't lay my life on the line for either.....I suspect that Wilder will land his huge shot at some stage but what if he can't....intriguing!

The thing is about Wilder's huge shot, people act like nobody has ever taken a shot from him and not gone down which isn't true. Plenty of fights have taken him rounds, one has taken him 12.

Can he end a fight in one shot? of course, but he doesn't always.

Also, he's had two real tests i'd say, Stiverne 1 and Ortiz. His KO % in his two genuine tests is only 50%...

Not saying isn't a big puncher, he quite clearly is, but people shouldn't be surprised when if he can't just put people like Fury away as easy as they think he can.

If Wilder's experience level is so much above Fury's, then why is it his footwork is still an total embarrassment to the sport? I mean, I've seen pro fighters with a year's experience who have better.

As said and I agree.I'm just concerned that Tyson , should the fight go late can he stay away from these fast still hard shots as we know D. can still deliver .What has T. in the tank ?........intriguing !

But how many have you seen with his KO ability?

"His style hasn't changed. He's still been the same Fury with the same style.

"His mindset may be a little bit different because of what he has been through and what he has overcome and where he is now. But as far as his style, he's still the same." - Deontay Wilder

If it ain't broke, don't fix it! 6'9" Southpaw, with great head movement and footwork! Would've loved to see Holmes vs. Fury! If Fury was able to sustain his work rate like Holmes, he would be unbeatable!

Even before his fight with Wlad, Tyson is prone to take rests, and depends on his opponent to smother his own work! If Wilder works his body when Fury is on the ropes, and avoids grappling, Fury is gone within 9! If not, Wilder will lose by UD in 12! My bet is on Wilder! BOMB SQUAD!

But against who?

His KO% is 50% in his only two decent tests, Ortiz and Stiverne 1

.

Conveniently omit stiverne 2... Fury reminds me of a mix between calzaghe and malignaggi in that he has pillow punches. Decent skill but he is definitely holding himself back with the lack of fitness and nutritional discipline.

There's only ONE.. BRONZE BOMBER!!
