Comments Thread For: Wilder Activates Contract Clause For Third Fight With Fury

[Squared.Circle]

Just want to point out for the uninformed that the ONLY way Wilder would be in position to get step aside money would be by triggering the rematch clause. Otherwise Fury is free to fight whoever tf he wants.

Which he’s officially activated? Lol

Not a very good idea, I will enjoy watching him get smashed again but Wilder is one of those people who got a big ego. He beat all those bums and he thought he was something special. He has no skills, no foot work, no defense and not even a half decent jab. Wilder and his fan base are so ******, biggest idiots on this planet lol

Towel squuuuuad!

At this point, I'd even say Wilder barely has a punchers chance, the way Fury walked straight through his vaunted right hand and manhandled and ragdolled him.

You might not have to. Fury can still turn down the fight especially if no promoter is willing pony up the guaranteed money. The networks lost money last time and the interest in this fight if flat. It certainly will not do better than the first fight, will it.

Fury should demand that Wilder's promoter guarantee him 40 mil up front and see what happens

Can Fury legally demand a set dollar amount? The rematch guaranty for Fury is he gets a 60/40 split of whatever the fight generates. The fight imo will not be a big money maker since we all have a good idea of the outcome.

Putting on extra weight was the worst idea ever! (and i'M not talking about the costume) Shred those pounds, and come out firing Brown Bomber! That's your only chance... You'll have 3 rounds to pull it off. After that... well... what's left of your ego will be flushed down the toilet.

Yes Wilder does not seem functional at all when he bulks up 'That says a lot about his strength and conditioning coach' Wilder's conditioning and fundamental skills for a elite level fighter where quite embarrassing 'It will be interesting to see what changes IF any he makes to his camp etc'

Wilder's power had almost zero effect upon Fury, it was as if he was punching under water.

I agree. I think at this point, Wilder would refuse any step aside money, not out of pride, but out of spite. He hates Hearn so much for exposing his cowardice he’ll turn down any number that’s offered.

"Exposing his Cowardice." That's a big accusation to make. Wilder has a lot of weakness but cowardice is not one of them. The only fight that makes sense for Wilder is to fight Fury, collect his pot of gold and then hopefully retire. If he doesn't retire then he possibly can fight Joshua or another top heavyweight before riding off into the Alabama sunset.

It's called adjusting, Fury adjusted to Wilder and beat the **** out of him. Boxing and moving would get him knocked down eventually so he had to switch it up and he did. He fooled everyone and made Wilder look like a lost little boy out there. The guy was 273 pounds with more muscle, 6'9, he's a ****ing monster

I agree with your comment. The poster you responded to seems to think that Fury somehow became a monster puncher who previously was a soft puncher. The way I see it is that Fury hits hard enough to hurt a man and often enough to bust someone up pretty badly. That is what he was doing to Wilder.

I think that Wilder's right hand is only truly vaunted when he's moving forward and punching off the front foot. Yes, Fury got hit with Wilder's right hand but not the vaunted right hand. Fury has Wilder's number which is to keep him backing up.

He caught him with it coming forward in the very first round, before Fury had beaten the legs out of him and begun pushing him back.
