Comments Thread For: Fury's Trainer: Wilder's Costume Excuse Is Not Ridiculous

[Noelanthony]

I absolutely buy Wilder's excuse. I've been there before. I've carried something for way too long once....and had no legs afterwards. I buy Wilder's story. I definitely would like to see fight 3 (no I'm not from Wilder's camp). While Fury is a better boxer than Wilder, let's not get it twisted. Fury did not destroy Wilder. When I think of destruction, I think of Mercer VS Morrison (true fight fans have seen that fight and know what I'm talking about). Wilder was a punching bag as he was tired, his legs were shot, and he had no movement. Wilder was not fresh. That became evident quickly. While Fury outfoxed Wilder in fight I, he didn't dominate the fight. Wilder if fresh, definitely has a punchers chance. I would not be surprised if a third fight turns out differently.....which is why I would love to see it. Wilder needs better folks in his corner, btw. He's very one dimensional. He needs to learn how to box/fight.

Let me get this right you carried something for way too long and your legs were tired so You buy Wilder’s excuse? Wilder is an elite athlete and a 25lbs outfit should not be an issue

It is confirmed that in Wilders next fight, he will make his ring entrance totally naked to avoid losing all movement to his legs.

He will complain of frost bite on his thighs even in the Las Vegas heat......or complain of corona virus in his right hand

Clever response/tactic from his opponent, adds fuel to Wilder's thinking and credibility (in Wilder's head) to the reason why he lost.

This takes away incentive to genuinely humble himself, surround himself with a new talented and honest team and begin to make the household changes needed to maybe make a difference.

Bingo

The more you let Wilder be deluded, the higher chance he won’t even make adjustments.

Fury's camp, and fans, are being extremely gracious. Can you imagine the classless whooping we'd be getting out of Wilder and he's following if he'd won from a one sided beating in seven rounds. Can you imagine the contempt excuses would be received with?

Lol all you have to do is look how they did pacquiao. Pac had a legit shoulder injury with a dark big red mark during the floyd fight, floyd even knew about it before hand, and these ldbc kept saying its fake its not real and ripped him.

They were talking about this on the Joe Rogan show. Joe related how he often trains with a weighted backpack (I forget the weight, but it’s well over 45 pounds) for miles (as many in the military do) and he feels just fine afterwards. In fairness, he said it was possible that Wilder was compromised; but Rogan used the word “possible” like it was a bit of a stretch. It was also pointed out that Deontay tried the costume on the night before, and that he wore it for like fifteen minutes before the ring walk. If there’s any grain of truth at all to Wilder’s story, someone should’ve known that it wasn’t a good idea to wear that thing for so long.

Also when deontay wilder was a guest on Rogans podcast he said he trains with a 45 pound vest on lol.

[nixxter]

The costume weighed 25lbs according to the maker.
Wilder is on record saying he trains with a 45lb vest.
Case closed.

Also when deontay wilder was a guest on Rogans podcast he said he trains with a 45 pound vest on lol.

Lol It all does seem silly. We can all agree Deontay should’ve just kept his mouth closed, but it does appear he was terribly affected by the loss. As long as he doesn’t continue with the nonsense, all is forgiven...at least that’s my opinion.

Yeah, if this fight somehow goes down then I hope Fury reverts back to his style in fight 1. We all know he can destroy him already. It would be pure class.

[texasboi15]

I hope Fury rescues that costume from Wilder's dustbin and wears it for his ringwalk in the 3rd fight, and still beats him like an egg sucking dog.

[Oshio]

The excuse cannot hold water because it makes one wonder the kind of training routine Wilder go through.
