I'm not convinced until Fury's tested on the Drago-meter.

Fury couldn't punch his way out of a paper bag.
6' 11" 270 pounds.....
That's devastating
I see nothing devastating about his punching power.
If it was a thing, Fury is more devastating using his size and weight to lean on people to tire them out.
Is there any reason to believe that this fight is not on for December? Was it just rumors that it was not going to go on
They are only rumours at this stage, as for reasons to believe, the announcement is over a week late than was indicated (for a fight that both had already said its done), Fury has pulled out of fights previously. Fury could use another fight beforehand etc.Quote:

As the fight draws closer and seems to be a certainty at this point, it's worth revisiting the OP.
Putting my dislike of Fury and his style aside, I must admit there are certain scenarios where Fury could foreseeably pull off a win against Wilder. But having said that, I think people put too much stock into things like Wilder's lack of boxing skills versus Fury's "complete mastery" of boxing skills.
Fury has shown that he CAN be vulnerable to the right hand, as shown various times in the past. He tends to hold his hands low, a no-no against the bombs of Wilder. Maybe he'll be different against Wilder, but an old dog... new tricks.... that kind of deal. Meanwhile, Wilder gets all sorts of crap about his lack of boxing skills and true..... he's raw and unpolished. But it's not all about windmills every minute of every fight. People here talk like Wilder just came off the Tough Man tournaments in Alabama. He's shown some boxing skills in his fights. Granted, when he gets the first whiff of blood, he tends to lose control. But that doesn't mean he can't box worth a shit.
Also, of course Fury has to have SOME power. He IS a heavyweight after all, and a big one at that. But Wilder has been hit by harder punchers than Fury, and survived. That alone tells me chances are slim Fury would hurt Wilder bad enough to knock him out, unless Wilder just makes huge mistake after huge mistake. A one-punch knockout by Fury I think we can all agree ain't gonna happen. Wilder knows that, and thus will be less respectful of Fury. Fury might be able to frustrate Wilder in the ring, which is his only recourse because I seriously doubt he can play with Wilder's mind like he did with Wlad's. To frustrate Wilder, he's gonna have do some grappling, some fouling, some honest-to-goodness boxing, some pot-shotting..... in short....he's gonna have to turn in the performance of a lifetime.
Damn, after seeing one of the worst HW title fights ever (Fury-Wlad), followed by a pretty darn good one (AJ-Wlad)....... I just hope this is a good fight. Like I've said before, respect to Fury for taking the fight, and showing up Team Joshua in the process. Let Hearn sit on that one and simmer for awhile.
