    AJ has a fast accurate arrow straight and very hard right hand and he times it well. Look how many decent fighters have been KOed by AJ's left jab straight right combo. Sure Wilder could take AJ out with his mighty straight right but it works both ways.

      Fury had a lot of great monents when he was backing Wilder up and throwing fast combos. Wilder isn't really a counter puncher by nature and it's hard to counter a guy as rangy as Fury. Fury got hurt when he stayed there too long waiting for Wilder and his reflexes weren't fast enough for that moment.

      I think if Fury stays focused and doesn't dwindle down again he can make the rematch a lot easier, he's gonna be in an even better shape, he's gonna be more confident in his skillls and stamina and he's gonna take it to Wilder a little more, if Fury would've had an experienced trainer he would've told him to utilize the last 30 second strategy like Ray Leonard and Holyfield, would've been able to win all rounds that way.

        Yeah, I think it is really on Wilder to do something different. Fury, using what he learned in the first fight and in better shape might make this look as easy as he made his second fight with Chisora.

          When did you predict that?

            I don’t think that AJ has that kind of right hand against a moving target. Sitting target maybe but not a moving target.

              Guys, stop saying that Fury wasn’t in shape or that he could’ve been in beret shape. He was in great shape for the fight.

                You're right but Fury doesn't fight like that. He's happy to win on points but it very nearly went wrong.

                  The draw and rematch was already agreed to before the fight even occurred.

                    You don't have to listen but that don't make not so. Fury paced himself well and fought in a relaxed style but that is not the same as being in top shape. Fury had titts bigger than the ring girls for pity's sake.

                      Sure but Wilder isn't as clueless as he's sometimes made out to be. He is very basic but he's not helpless. If Fury started to give him opportunities he'd have taken one or two of them and Fury clearly didn't want to know about it.
