Fury v Wilder - Staples Center, Los Angeles 1/12/18

Why Deontay Wilder vs Tyson Fury could lose world championships status by the end of the week

Ha! nearly fell off the chair.

“We don’t fall into discrimination where one fight is deemed more important than another. Just because a fight is for the strawweight title doesn’t make it less important than a fight for the heavyweight title. A fight for a WBC championship should be the greatest fight,” Sulaiman said. “Yes, I wish every fight had fighters in who had been subject to out-of-competition testing. We’re working towards that.”

Wtf

I'd say Fury is starting to fuck with Wilders mind.
Fury has also signed up for VADA testing so this will be for Wilders belt.

Just watched the round the table.

Hilarious. Wilder looks intimidated to me and can't compete with Fury at talking. Fury's belief is incredible and despite me thinking he's no way ready for this level yet he's almost got me convinced he's won already !

They're selling this well.

Fight night can't come quick enough.

I've been telling everybody for months. Tyson Fury is unbeatable. He is a monster. He is a freak physically and mentally. I can quite relate to him. Trust me. He already won this fight. And little Tony is pissing in his diapers just thinking about fighting him

Thanks for that, @Manos de Piedra


I differ from some of the opinions. I don't think Fury's f*cking with Wilder's mind. I just think he talks a lot better than him. If it was a war of words, Fury would've won several times over. I think they both believe they're the better man.... and if they both come to fight.... it should be a hell of a fight while it lasts. Zero percent chance the fight sees the final bell. One of them gets caught. Fury with a bomb, or Wilder from a well-placed counter from a wild shot. Still, I favor Wilder. He's been rocked by harder punchers than Fury and survived. The same can't be said about Fury.

I agree with Tito. Anybody can have a war of words but it doesn't have anything to do with how well you can fight. Fury is a man full of bluster and passion and let's it all go. Wilder seems a little more reserved and at the end of the day if someone is noisier than you they are just noisier than you. Fury's bark is far worse than his bite. In terms of power he is a HW Malignaggi. Paulie can out talk anyone but a stronger fighter is still most likely going to bust him up. I look at it a bit like that.

Wilder lives for the fight.
Fury lives for the hype.
Wilder lands the right.
And then it's goodnight.
