Wilder trains in a 45 lb. vest but 40 lb. costume was too heavy?

    Wilders legs looked fine. Maybe he lost his legs because Fury put him on a bicycle while hitting him with concussive shots that snapped his head back.

    I've seen the fight probably over 10 times now looking for the moment Wilder "lost his legs" and moment was in the 3rd round by KD.

    If anything, if someone actually boxed youd probably figure Fury sapped Wilder of his legs because Fury forced him to fight on his rhythm.

    Rhythm can sap a ton of fighters energy.

    That was something Wilder had never experienced before. His mouth was already open and gasping before the KD.

    Im not giving him a pass.... Don't think it was the reason he lost.

    My only point is yall bringing up ****** comparisons. Like u just did..... You working out doing watever your not going to do b4 a fight or fresh sparring. Its a reason sparring day is different than regular training days.

    What u think your trainer would say to you if you walking around with 40lbs b4 going into a fight?

    Would he let you do hard sparring the day of the fight? Have u run hills b4 fighting?

    No no and hell no. Your suppose to be fresh! Thats my point.

      Lol idk yo, I would think that if I train all the time with a 45lb vest, walking around for 20min wouldnt be the reason I lose the biggest fight of my life

        Bro. You think I'm using ****** comparison yet you saying things like "hard sparring" or "hill runs". How are those comparable to Fsrmers walk with 40lbs?

        Farmer walks with 40lbs is a ****ing baby lift that wouldnt even effect your legs even going into a fight. Add on top he always wears ****** **** like that too!

        You're not giving Wilder a pass BUT his legs werent "fresh".

          And remember that there's a difference between being in shape and being in fighting shape. It takes a lot of strength to withstand punches from a 273lb man, over 12 rounds while trying to move, punch and defend.
          bs!! what was he doing in training then? sleeping? the training part was suppose to prepare him for shiiet like that! if he was wearing a 45lbs vest on while training, then walking out to the ring in a 40lbs costume, shouldnt affect his legs that much to the point where they were completely gone! lol.

            Lol Wilder you need to start remembering things youve said before throwing out the blame on everything and everybody else.

            It was never the suit it was the severe beating you took off Fury. Fury is a hell of a fighter, losing to him is not so embarrassing but all the excuses are wrecking any credibility he had earned.
