Comments Thread For: Wilder vs. Fury Rematch To Be Officially Ordered By The WBC

[Toffee]

So I've read the press release and it doesn't say they've ordered a rematch. They've sanctioned it, which means Wilder can either fight his mandatory, Fury, or a unification fight with Joshua.

So not much has changed?

Or does the "ruling which will also consider the mandatory status of the division" have a few caveats in it?

For those of you out there that think Wilder was given a gift with a draw, think for a moment about what could have been, and should have been...

Fury was on his back, motionless, eyes closed. 99% of the time if the ref sees that after a big punch, they don't kneel down next to them and start yelling out the count in "case" they wake up. Props to Fury for doing so, but I am just saying it should have been called and no count should have been started.

Did the ref kneel down beside Khan when Canelo knocked him unconscious? No. They just called it. Just sayin....

people want this to be in the UK so bad. a UK ref would've waved it off as soon as Fury landed on his back.


so yeah lets go to the UK then. Wilder by TKO.

[P4Pdunny]

Yeah, but all Wilder has to do is correct his aim.

So thats all it boiled down to?!

[Corelone]

Lol easier said than done. Maybe he should try and box instead of you wilderlites giving him the title of being awkward. He did look Awkward admittedly in the fight but it wasn’t a good thing

Wilderlite? I believe Fury won that fight. I don't score running and pitty pat punches, but I give points when guy gets up spitting fire. I do it different. I also believe Wilder owes Fury the location, Old Trapdoor, wherever. The thing is, Wilder has a canon, it's not a rumor, and it's not a secret. Fine tuning his aim would seem like the best improvement he could make.

The thing is, if Wilder somehow uses his brain and follows the game plan, attacking the body and being more patient will get him the KO late. Forget head hunting fool! I said before they fought the first time he needs to utilize the jab and go to the body or he will lose.

In the early rounds wilder did go to the body a little. When I saw that I said ow this could be a game changer. But he stopped going to the body. I think it was because he's not used to having to go to the body to wear a guy down. He's used to having guys come to him then utilizing his height and reach. He had no such advantage this time. He was also afraid of counters which is what Fury would of hammered him with but he was rusty and slow. That might have worked. But in the rematch it won't. Fury will have no rust so he'll be sharper. I honestly cannot see wilder winning no matter what he does in the rematch if it's held within 5 months. Its It's not for 8 or 9 months then Wilder has a good chance

Poor Wilder!

He should start writing his ****** excuses right now.

[STREET CLEANER]

Fury was prepared for the Wilder's right hand and Wilder just wanted to land that right to KO him.

Wilder never adjusted until the end of the fight. Once he landed a hook it opened up his straight right hand instead of that looping one.

The second fight Fury might try to hold more since he now knows that that power is legit. Fury has a lot heart and resilience

[kiDynamite92]

But wilder didn't even hit him with the right and almost knocked him out. IDC about how *****ry his footwork is, he only needs to connect one time, the dude only weighed 212 and still hits like a mack truck.

If Fury could wind up a punch from all the way back that Wilder does and lands it the fight would be over as well. Did you see in the 12th round, after Tyson got up and Wilder threw everything he had to no avail, Tyson stopped the movement and smacked him with a 2-3 and had Wilder ready to go until he held on.

Well the thread does say "To Be Officially Ordered By The WBC" not that it has been.
