Fury has technical skills He was feinting and Wilder would react so hard and just gave Fury more of a book Wilder wasn’t right the whole time and even though Fury was clearly the better man you could tell Wilder was off from early on He mentioned his leg in the interview, I wouldn’t be surprised if he was injured in camp leading up i also think a third fight would be pretty special but I’d rather see Fury go for unification vs AJ, next 30 days is the window for Wilder to option third fight...if that happens no Fury/AJ in 2020

He definitely isn't young but he isn't super old I'd like to see him 1 more time

I don't want to piss on the fight. I always enjoy a big fight card as I did this one. But I wonder what a guy like Larry Holmes or, if he was still alive, Ken Norton would be thinking about these guys? Norton and Holmes a couple levels above as far as skill and boxing ability goes. Despite his size, Fury would be dominated by either one. Still like the fight though.

Fury is a monster but yes I agree he couldn't hang with some of the older heavyweights who had real skill Fury has skill but would get ripped up by some old school guys

When I watch the heavies today that seems to be the biggest difference. Defensive skills are not great either. Still fun though. Fury could use some better marketing as well. His entrance music didn't get me hyped up. I thought him getting carried in was funny though. Edited February 24, 2020 by Dante

Helpmenow Posted February 25, 2020 Posted February 25, 2020 Not impressed with fury, just a big guy tough to reach. Lennox would beat him easy.

GoBills808 Posted February 25, 2020 Posted February 25, 2020 Fury/Wilder 3 confirmed Should be a great fight

He said his legs were tired from wearing his 40 lb costume for over 15 minutes before the fight.? His mask made it harder to breathe also. Fury was smart wearing his costume while being carried to the ring.? Edited February 25, 2020 by Turk71

Then it's a draw and we have to watch it again.

Lol i enjoy watching wilder but the fight everyone wants is fury/aj and now that’s off for at least a year and possibly not happening fury would have to have a rubber match clause in there for protection. He’s won like 95% of the rounds between himself and wilder

I remember when he took off the mask and he was sweating like he was in a sauna. Fury gets carried in and feels great.
