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

[Master]

I think Wilder is rattled which is why he went into crazy mode. Fury held it together.

One nil to Fury.

[Mark TKO]

I’m getting to the stage where I just cannot see Fury losing.

No idea why...

Wilder looks like a complete fool in that vid. And not even a witty shat talking fool. Even Tyson for all his bluster and blow ups..save for storming cops ..had a collected confidence about him. Wilder is the definition of 'talking loud and saying nothing'. Big mouths and big fights can go hand in hand but as suspected when it was signed I think Fury has clowned him a bit and rented a room in his head. Of course, they still have to fight though .

I found it odd how Wilder thought Americans love the British accent and that Fury speaks well. I have a hard time seeing anyone enjoy Fury's accent or voice. He sounds like a 50 year old Northern plumber. What's that weird Anerican thing he tries to put on too? Very strange. Fury gets his phrases jumbled up and that also sounds odd.

Wilder had no reason to lose his cool. He should have just worn a fat suit, made a few oinking noises and pretended to roll out a few lines of coke in front of his mic. Fury is easy to mock really.

I loved the line about being unable to sit down as Fury was indeed the one jumping all about as though he was on something. Wilder sat there. He knows the work is in the ring.

I find Wilder is always cringeworthy when he talks, while Fury can come across as likeable, but I don’t care much about that. I don’t know if it’ll make any difference whether Wilder is rattled or not, because he always fights like a spaz and this fight especially wasn’t going to be any different. He will either be able to land early or he won’t.

So people are saying that Fury has lost weight ..... and it is the equivalent of an entire prime Ricky Hatton?

That must be a weigh-in Hatton, not a 'between fights' Hatton, otherwise Tyson Fury would make the bantamweight limit right now

I think both are cringeworthy when they start prattling on about higher power, God and being anointed. It suggests Fury hasn't fully recovered from his mania and that Wilder was a seriously indoctrinated young child. However, in saying that, apart from the cult like leanings, they are both people you could have a pint with.

Let's set the record straight in case anyone had any doubts. Fury can talk Wilder under a table with both hands tied behind his back. Wilder is a horrible talker, and can be had by a trash-talking 5th-grader. This is why Wilder comes across as unhinged, and could very well be frustrated at how Fury gets the best of him at every face-to-face. Howeverrrrrr....... this should not be confused with saying Fury has gotten into Wilder's head. Wilder is NOT Wlad. Repeat..... NOT Wlad. Wlad let Fury get into his head and became timid. He seemed scared that Fury could take him out. He threw 4 punches a round. Wilder is definitely NOT scared of Fury. Frustrated because Fury has made him look like a fool..... absolutely. Having second thoughts about being able to beat Fury? Nah. The only chance Fury has at playing with Wilder's mind is getting Wilder so pissed off he gets even wilder (no pun intended) than usual. That, I can see.
