Comments Thread For: DAZN Weights From Chicago: Usyk 215, Witherspoon 242

Total mismatch! Usyk is a slow starter, but he will stop the old Chazz inside 4 rounds.

everyone is saying 215 is too small as if Wilder didn't weigh less than 215 in 2 of his last 3 fights.

Wilder put on some weight for his last fight, because he thinks the low weight is why he struggled against both Ortiz and Fury.

I always wondered who would weigh more if Wilder-Usyk happens.

I thought it was flu going into the Ortiz match, and then he wanted to be quick against Fury, but you could be right.

And yeah, I think 220 is good for him. He looked sickly thin against Fury. His back reminded me of Tommy Hearns back when he was at 147

But if Wilder goes the full 12 against Fury again, carrying those extra 10 or 15 pounds could hinder him by the end of the fight.

True. Though the only other time he went 12 rounds he weighed 220 and he was fresh in the 12th


Who knows. lol

Wilder is 4 inches taller then Usyk its completely different comparing the weight between a stocky 6'3 guy and an underweight 6'7 one. Weight isn't the issue with Usyk hes going to win wheather hes 200 or 220 ,Wilder will lose eventually OFFICIALLY if he plays around sub 210 pounder , lets not pretend before his GIFT draw he also made weight as an excuse when he almost got busted by Ortiz ,that was his go to excuse given up weight, its running thin ( no pun ) now .

In truth Breazeale probably got the best Wilder but fought unintelligent himself ,Wilder NEEDS to be over 220m if he hopes to give himself the best chance IF he continues to fight relevant guys.

He was fresh the first time he went 12 rounds because he was fighting Stiverne, who's much smaller than Fury.

In the first fight, Fury went 8 rounds without getting dropped. Fury hadn't gone 12 rounds since Wlad 3 years prior and was still on the comeback trail. Fury just went 12 rounds, and will be better conditioned for the rematch. I can see Wilder winning by KO, but not by decision.

I don't think ANYONE would predict Wilder winning a decision against Tyson Fury.


Unless it had a bunch of knockdowns I suppose.
