Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua: If I Was a Betting Man - I Think Fury Beats Wilder!

[Richard]

I can see Fury beating Joshua.

The one that does look exciting is Daniel Dubois.

The only thing AJ really knows about is how to talk like he has been reading a self-help book. He has no idea who would win any fight.

For the record- Wilder wins this fight. It's obvious. Fury's genius is making a load of people believe he will win.

He clearly beat Wilder the first time around. Anybody who disagrees can tell me which rounds they believe Wilder won (which of the rounds where he didn't touch Fury but Fury hit him dozens of times).

If you cant do that you are just a clueless fanboy. He lost once so why can't it be repeated? Seriously, he made Wilder look like it was his first time in the ring.

Why would of it been right to stop the fight? Only reason the fight should of been stopped is if fury was in no fit state to continue, its the rules. And judging by the way fury continued in the fight he was clearly fit to continue.

So if he's fit to continue why on earth would a ref, any ref stop the fight?

He would have been right to stop the fight because Fury was laying on the mat motionless. Recall Fury himself says he doesn't remember getting hit. Many reputable refs have spoken on this, why is it up for debate?

For a couple of seconds. Was Fury fit to continue?

Once he got up...in Reiss judgement he was. As multiple refs have said, deeming Fury not fit to continue once he laid motionless would not have been "wrong" or a bad call. Its call the opinion of the ref. There is no right or wrong. That seems hard for you to accept.

[Roberto Vasquez]

... and, according to him, what was "the real reason"?...

He said he had surgery for it but didn't say exactly what. He said he had no energy before the fight and was putting his head in a bucket of water before the fight to try and wake himself up

I'm not going to rewatch the fight because of some guy/girl on an internet forum lol. All i know is Fury looked good because he made Wilder miss but really there was maybe 14 punches in it overall and Wilder knocked down Fury twice.

It was hardly the robbery of the century and let's not forget Fury said before the fight "If Wilder can hit me then I'm not the great fighter I think I am"

Wilder wasted time last time doing things that didn't work - this fight he knows what to do. Fury will get stopped in 7-8 rounds

Wilder won three rounds tops (two of them 10-8 rounds). It isn't that you can't be bothered, just that it is impossible to do without feeling ******.
None of his fans can tell me which rounds they think he won because there are only 3 where it is possible to even argue he beat Fury.

Don't worry, you're not alone, no other Wilder fan in the entire world can name the rounds he won, because he plainly lost all but 3. There is no argument, as soon as a Wilder fan is asked the question, he folds and drops the argument.

You sound silly. You have an opinion...cool. No need to make these wide sweeping inaccurate assumptions to try and validate it.

Further, just because someone agrees with the draw or believed Wilder edged it, that doesn't make them a Wilder fan.

Joshua: You told us before the Ruiz fight that you won't be talking about anything else. You told us AFTER the Ruiz fight that you won't be actively seeking Wilder. Then you told us later that Wilder/Fury will have to come calling.

But all you have done since is talk about Wilder and Fury. You wanted to spar Fury to help him beat Wilder for you. Now you're betting Fury will win. Why you're not talking about your upcoming super exciting fight with Pulev? Are you missing the limelight already since you know the top two Heavyweights are fighting and you ain't one of them? Fury and Wilder have had successful negotiations to make it a trilogy but you have been able to get either one to fight even once?

May be Joshua can offer the sparring to Wilder too. But why not concentrate on your own upcoming fight?
