Comments Thread For: Fury: You Saw What Happened To Whyte, I Won't Overlook Wilder

[JakeTheBoxer]

Whyte is just not good enough to beat Fury. But I can see Wilder struggling with him.

In fairness to Whyte, I don't think he overlooked povetkin. Whyte winning was based on him being younger, stronger, fitter, more ambition. He didnt have the better boxing pedigree, skill or experience and this is why he lost.

That’s true, but I still think he had one eye on the mandatory shot, who wouldn’t? Especially when you’re asked about it in every interview

I also believe they thought Povetkin is shot and there for the taking, which is still true, despite the result.

But before the knock out he was outboxing Povetkin, leading in all cards.

Definitely can’t take his eye off, Fury fights better when he sees you as a threat. That’s why him fighting guys that aren’t threat is actually dangerous for him. With Wilder he would be switched on and watching every punch that is thrown his way, you don’t want to stay at the end of those right hand. Tactically Fury is always spot on, he has the ring IQ not to think it’s all over until it’s over. That’s what is missing from the likes of Joshua, Wilder and Whyte.

Anyone here thinks Wilder has a chance after the battering in March?

Exactly, people forget anyone can get caught with a punch they never saw especially heavyweights, i mean even the greats like lennox lewis and mike tyson been kod silly in their prime, why do people hold current boxers to unrealistic standards damn.

If fury beats him the same way then case closed, he just has wilders number. People assume wilder is trash cause he losing to the best heavy weight after fury dethroned vlad before, atleast we gettin the best fightin the best at heavy, minus joshua in the mix for now. Not to piss fury fans off, but wilders team better inspect those “floppy” gloves with a microscope this time around, wilder already destroyed his own rep too tho with that ridiculous 40 pound suit lol but lets make this as even as possible and may the best man win fairly.

I gotta feeling that this is gonna be a dog fight. A trench warfare; With neither man giving an inch. The man who wants it the most is going to win this fight.

Fury really is at the height of his powers right now. Growing nicely into the Kronk style and staying physical fit and mentally strong, even through lockdown.

Wilder will always have a punchers chance, but Fury seems to be in too good a place to regress now and the psychological advantages he carries over Wilder are huge.

However, with his fast, straight shots I think Fury's, Kronk style may actually benefit Joshua. AJ could catch him coming in, and he's far more accurate than Wilder. Certainly helped him out against Klitschko's version of the Kronk style. But AJ might be fighting on the back foot. One we all definitely need to see.

As for Whyte, he's too easy to land on at Workd level. If Chisora was landing his hooks almost at will, it's no surprise the well-schooled Povetkin stretched his neck. In my humble opinion Fury would handle Whyte a little like the Chisora rematch the mood he's in right now.

I think AJ is still more popular in London and the South of England generally. But in Northern England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland, Fury is The Man now.

His racist remarks have seen his popularity plummet. Good job.
Losing to a short Mexican blob hasn't helped either

Fury is only in the rise.
