Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury Made a Bigger Statement Than Deontay Wilder

[P4Pdunny]

Fury won that clearly, Wilder didnt come off great last night yet some of you put him over AJ?

On that performance I’d back AJ to stop him

[Oshio]

Robber. Pure robbery. Wilder is lucky Fury is not puncher. That judge should not be seen close to any boxing ring again. What fight was he watching?

[slimPickings]

Wilder cherry pick went wrong. His cherry pick outboxed him.

THIS!!!

It was supposed to be a walk in the park. Little did he know that that he was biting off more than he could chew.

He picked on the wrong one!!!

The thing is that, fury is not a hard hitter... AJ is

[MDPopescu]

I told you I don't take sides...

Wilder landed 71 of 430 shots (17%), compared to 84 of 327 for Fury (26%), according to CompuBox’s punch statistics.

That's all about it... (plus the KDs...)

Rounds, if I hit you once a round and you don't hit me, guess what, I won 12-0

... Of course... Of course... I told you I don't take sides here... I only wanted to underline the "level" of the fight in terms of punches "thrown" and "landed"...

On another hand, this fight was in the U.S. -- I don't understand why the ref didn't wave it off immediately while Fury was flat down of his back?...

"By Michael Rosenthal

LOS ANGELES – Neither Deontay Wilder nor Tyson Fury had his hand raised after their fight but, in effect, Fury was the winner."

Huh?

NEWS to that author: In a draw, BOTH fighters get their arm raised!

Because before the fight, Reese told both guys the he would do a full count. Check it online and you will find it.

Fury made a big statement, there is no not taking him seriously anymore, the Wlad win wasnt a one off. He is back, as good as ever if not better and he wont be anybodys mug.

Wilder made a big statement too, He is every bit as average as people have been claiming for years and rely's completely on his power but his shot selection is average so it was ok blowing away all those low skilled bums but against the best his lack of all round game is going to mean his chances are going to be few and far between and picking up very few points inbetween.

People got straight talking about how Joshua would of coped with that shot in the 12th had he been in that ring Saturday night. Well i wonder about how Wilder would of coped with all the shots landed on him in all those other rounds had it been Joshua and not Fury?

no, the thing is..... Joshua is not as slick as Fury

if Wilder can drop Fury, then he can - and probably will - drop AJ

Joshua is not gonna blow Wilder out of there, Wilder will probably land his best punch on Joshua at some point

that fight showed exactly why they are avoiding Wilder

[CJFRENCH]

We agree...

How is Fury even considered a cherry pick? Who else could Wilder fight that was a better option than Fury? I'll wait.

Aj being the only one everyone knows even Fury and Lennox Lewis know aj is a bytch about that fight.

So again who was a better option for Wilder than Fury?

I assume when you quoted me, we were agreeing as i said Fury was a risk not a cherry pick, obviously a good time to take that risk due to long lay off of Fury...
