Comments Thread For: LIVE STREAM: Wilder vs. Fury II - Official Weigh-In

Fury is going to gas if he doesn't get Wilder out of there early. Fury's getting stopped or knocked out if he doesn't move or stand too erect and not move his head.

Man I really don't know what to make of both guys being heavier but it seems like more of a negative for Fury, I'm not so sure of my pick of Fury anymore but I wonder why he's chosen to keep his shirt on..... these guys and their mind games lol. It's definitely not a Ruiz type situation where he didn't train.... fight night just became more unpredictable for me personally.

He looks fat TBH. Look at his chest.

I don't know like I said the black shirt can be deceiving.But looking at his face, neck and arms he looks to be in shape.The chest is MEH he has never had a chiseled Physique.

I am thinking the weight could help him and that height with that weight , leaning on and tying up could exhaust Wilder it takes energy to fight off that much weight.

Reminds me of Buster Douglas vs Hollfield. One guy is in shape and the other guy is fat. Fury has been going wwf and saying he was to go mma, when he should have been concentrating on getting in shape. This is probably Fury's last fight in boxing ... the wwf awaits and he can get as fat as he wants and still be a star. But his boxing days are done.

He just does not have the dedication to be a top line fighter.

Both at their optimum weight.

No, Tyson's optimum weight is 276. This is Wilder's 231lbs optimum weight however. This is the highest he has ever weighed in a professional prizefight and he looks ripped. Fury refused to take his shirt off however.

The difference is Wilder put on muscle while fury put on fat. There is a big difference. Wilder looked chiseled while fury did not even want to take off his shirt.

Personally, I would say Wilder has the advantage because in their first bout he looked like he overtrained by coming in so light at 212 lbs. I don't see how a firefight with the hardest heavyweight puncher in boxing history benefits Tyson Fury none.
