If Tyson is even just 70% of what he was before the cocaine, alcohol and mcdonald binge, he wins easily.
It all depends on that, because Wilder is the least skilled champion in memory, has been more protected than fort knox, and has a ridicolously glass chin.
Hes not the fighter he used to be, i dont think he'll be able to recover his shape with all that time off he had. His didnt exactly dominate his last fight either, however much i want him to win this this is pretty much just a big retirement check for him.
He messed around in both the two fights he had, he'll take things very seriously against Wilder, I don't see much difference in all honesty, he's still a hulking 6ft9 who can move quick
Just listening to Wilder's bigoted comments in interviews has me rooting for Fury. Then again, the bone bommer is 40-0 with 39 ko's....sooo...but then again gypsy taint is damn good shit
Fury weight-in at 256.5, Wilder - 212.5 ,dude could make cruiserweight lol, odds for Tyson ko/tko is at 6.0 which is very tempting .He will have 44 pounds weight advantage and will know how to use it.Still i predict Wilder ko/tko , guy still is one of strongest punchers ever and Fury abused his body too much to avoid Wilder for 12.Oh and if it goes distance, there's high possibility of Tyson get robbed,there's much more interest and money on Wilders future fights...

Welcome :) As I say'd - there's big interest in Wilders future, judging was very bad, good I remember to put €20 on draw...They have rematch clause in contract and surely it will take in UK, Fury will be in even better shape and i'm sure will be favorite.Joshua become a laughingstock and will fight some bum meanwhile,or maybe finally will feed Miller to him.
Fury got fucking robbed. He schooled wilder. Best boxing fight I've seen personally, was on the edge of my seat all through out. So fucking upset for him. The way he got up from the knock down in the 12th was unreal, so so much heart. Champ.
Boxing is a farce indeed. It's why MMA is taking over, and deservingly so. It's incredible how often and how gigantic the fixes are in boxing matches.
Fury won 10 rounds to 2. Took some earth splitting bombs to the face, and got up like nothing happened. His chin is insane. He truly is still the best heavyweigfht around even after the drugs and alcoholics binges.
Disgusting job from the judges as per usual in america.
And Wilder has finally been exposed for what he is, a very limited and unathletic puncher.

It's mostly to do with how it's setup with who hires them. Boxing is corrupt. Whatever issues the UFC has in these fronts, they're quite small compared to the kind of shit boxing fans have to endure.
And Fury opens the betting leader if they're to fight again. Yes, you heard that right, the winner opens as the leader to win again. In other news, water is still wet.
Apparently I have an outsider's opinion on the fight but anyways here goes.
I thought a win for Wilder would have been deserved. I was disappointed by the draw. I had wilder land much more significant punches, where Fury's punches most in the majority of times didn't hurt a fly so to say.
Wilder did much more damage while Fury was constantly on defense and landed only a few hard strikes.
Then Wilder had two serious knockdowns. The one in the 12th of devastating effect and as Fury said afterwards, only some kind of 'miracle' brought him back to life...
Isn't the goal of the sport to conquer your opponent? I mean I know of the counting system, but there is a difference of power punching, or light jabbing in my mind.
So all in all, I thought a draw was a salomonic decision, maybe not according to the strictest of rulebooks, but also taking into account what we saw and who dominated in a fight.
By your reasoning, Floyd Mayweather lost several times. Or Ali lost every fight against Frazier.
Boxing doesn't work that way.
Damage done is irrelevant as long as your opponent continues to outclass you. It only matters if you can actually stop him. And the first knockdown was a flash one, and the one in the 12th round Fury was clowning around too much and allowed Wilder to land. He still was the aggressor once up, and Wilder was the one retreating and hurt by the end of the 12th round.

This is not how judges score in the pros. This isn't the amateurs, damage matters, class only matters if it effectively leads to damage. The problem for Wilder in this fight was that boxing is scored round by round. Whoever did the most damage in a round, wins the round. Most rounds, Wilder was swinging at air and hitting gloves while Fury was landing clean one-two's.
