Comments Thread For: Fury: Wilder Will Take Trilogy For One Reason - It's Called Money!

[MulaKO]

What a hypocritical thing to say
When Fury signed off on it , wasn’t it for money ?

[REDEEMER]

It's called "prize fighting" for a reason, and a belt is NOT the prize!

If Wilder understood about prize fighting he would have signed to fight AJ in 2018 when his highest pay was 2 million.

If Wilder wanted money he would just wait for undisputed out of the winner of Fury and AJ. . He’s taking the rematch because he said AJ would run from Ruiz ,he would look ****** if he stepped aside. His best bet really is fake an injury or go on social media and say he’s injured and won’t be ready since he’s full of excuses it won’t matter .

Very true, I been saying it. He is on his way out after Fury crushes him again. He may go back to crushing tomato cans for a bit but that's it.

Since when? Requires is a strong word. If this is in fact true, maybe list reasons why.

Wilder's best shot was in the first fight and Jack Reiss stole it from him, even though Fury schooled him for most of that fight.

Stole? I suggest you watch the interview done by Jack where he explains his thoughts during that knockdown. He is a former fireman and I am sure he knows better than most how to gauge a situation. The only thing stolen that night was the victory Fury rightfully won. Getting knocked down is a big factor but getting right back up and out boxing your opponent is greater.

Fury will find out first hand that the rematch is about more than money.
Confidence and pride are more so the reasons for the trilogy than money although money is definitely a part of it. Wilder is on a mission.

would have thought Wilder would have been on a mission after getting clearly outclassed/outboxed in 1st fight, which most say he got a gift draw.

Not sure if any "big" fights will happen without an audience. As far as PPV? With high unemployment the prices may have to be lowered. The loss of the live gate is probably too much to overcome. Also can they realisticaly put on a big fight in Vegas with no crowd? The ******** aspect is also a consideration.

Funny coming from Fury a self-proclaimed gypsy : ))

I thought Fury won the first fight.
I was riding with him on the 2nd fight and was happy he humbled Deontay.


This time around i am firmly with Deontay.
Not sure why but probably because he is being sold tooo short. Big mistake!!!

Interesting...

I thought Wilder won the first.

Second fight, after re-watching the first fight I thought Fury will edge it.
Did not expect KO.

Third fight, I think you're right as a lot of folks see it fait accompli, which is dangerous.
I think Wilder makes adjustments, but it's too late for him making fundamental adjustments.
There's only so much Wilder will be able to change at this stage.

So Fury by decision or another stoppage (very real chance) in the third fight.

My 5 cents!

Wilder needs to win , for the sake of the division. If he wins , every top fighter will have 1 loss in the resume and more fights can be made . If wilder wins , we still gonna be able to see Wilder x Joshua , Joshua x Fury , Fury x Whyte , Whyte x Wilder , any of those against Usyk , Dubois , Ruiz Jr . More matches to be done , more relevancy , MORE MONEY . Only these dellusional toxic Fury's fans wants him to win and think that's the best for the HW division . They also needs to remember that the referee could have stopped the 1st bout after the second knockdown . Wilder chances are very realistic . I can't see the fight going the same way as the 2nd , would bea huge surprise if so
