Fury isn't ready for this, he needs a few more months to get into his best shape, and at least one more warm-up fight, preferably two, against better opponent(s) than the two he fought this year.
If it happens on Dec 1, Wilder will knock Fury out with one of his wild hay-makers.

Now we know Frank Warren's week is 34 days long.

Yep definitely agree with that 100%. Fury needs more time, I believe a prepared Fury will win a decision but this Fury will get KO'd. I hope he surprises me but I don't see it happening.
Re: Fury v Wilder - Staples Center, Los Angeles 1/12/18
The timing of this announcement (yesterday) is a blatant attempt to steal some of the thunder from AJs big weekend.
The more I think about this fight the more I like it.
Crazy clash of styles, almost schzisophrenic from both fighters.
For a massive guy Fury is slick on his feet, awkward as fuck and can switch hit effectively and he looks in great shape but Wilders got a nuclear bomb of an equaliser waiting for him.
Hope the rumoured undercard comes through which will make this a wicked night.

First 30 seconds of this video shows what Tyson can do to shutdown Wilder. Was looking for Mickeys pep talk about hurting the ribs, cant find it.

I'm sure Fury pulls out some time before fight night
Re: Fury v Wilder - Staples Center, Los Angeles 1/12/18
Yeh sounds way too easily made with the way initial fight plans for both Wilder and Fury go. I'd put money on a postponement but at least they got the push on a AJ fight night ;D. Still cannot get the image of Fury going down like a darted giraffe v Cunningham though.

Furys off to Big Bear in California to set up camp, only leaves 9 weeks before fight night.
There's supposed be a big announcement today but it's all gone quiet again.
Re: Fury v Wilder - Staples Center, Los Angeles 1/12/18
Are you sure it wasn't the announcement of an upcoming announcement? ;D
I'd love to know what conversations have gone on behind closed doors. No way did Frank ever want Fury knocking heads with Wilder three fights in, if at all.

It's brilliant! Furys like a mad dog Warren has fuck all control over.
If he doesn't like something he just pisses on it and cracks on 😂

He's a strange dude. I wouldn't be shocked by that at all. I also wouldn't be shocked if Fury goes in and lasts 12...there's no telling what could happen. I just eventually want all the belts on 1 guy.
Re: Fury v Wilder - Staples Center, Los Angeles 1/12/18
Tyson Fury will have all of the belts by Mayday next year
Re: Fury v Wilder - Staples Center, Los Angeles 1/12/18
Warren has publicly stated that THE big press conference to kick start this is happening next Monday in London followed by a few presses over in the US.
They've left this extremely late in the day to give the fight the maximum hype.
At 4am UK time on BT sports PPV I really don't see this doing over 300,000 PPV buys here.
