    It hit me that Ward would stop Kov in the rematch. It hit me that Martinez would ko Williams in the rematch and that Williams would ko Quintana etc etc.

    With this possible rematch there are too many scenarios for me to pick a winner. It hasn’t hit me yet.
    If what Wilder claims is true, that he broke his arm 12 weeks before the fight, it would explain his hesitance of throwing punches, and lack of accuracy from not being able to spar. Fury can hit hard enough to KO Wilder.

      Fury smothered/leaned on Wilder a couple of times after landing shots, and I think that played a part in Wilder fatiguing so bad. Since Wilder needs a lot of room to punch, Fury is completely safe on the inside. If Fury walks him down while keeping his defense tight more in the rematch, Deontay will fade even faster.

          So if you picked Fury by KO then why were you saying Wilder cherrypicked an easy fight?

            It's too risky to go all out against Wilder, one good counter punch from him and its over.

              The punch Wilder knocked him down in the 12th , Fury didnt even see it coming . If Wilder can figure out how he did that the rematch could be a short fight .

                I think fury thought he was comfortably ahead so maybe didn't risk it.
                But fury with roach in sure will know what to do next fight

                    Still, you were covering all bases.

                      Well, I can't speak for drama but I had the same opinion on this fight too. And I don't think it's covering all bases like you say at all. Not when it comes to this particular fight.

                      I picked Fury by late KO because I knew that Fury is one of those fighters who get motivated accordingly to their opponent's level.

                      I'm dead serious, when I saw Fury at the weigh in and saw that he came in in pretty much the same weight as he did vs Pianeta, I was confident he'd win it. One thing his body was craving for after years of yoyo dieting is stability.

                      But team Wilder didn't know that and that's one of many amateurish things that 'team' has done. They thought it was a cherry pick because they assumed Fury is like 99% fighters out there who are only as good as their last fight. He isn't because Fury isn't like other fighters. It took me years of hating and doubting him to realize that, but it's the truth. Fury is special.
