Title: Fury vs Wilder 3
Post by: bLuEeYes on October 09, 2021, 01:57:10 PM
Who you got?
I got Fury by TKO, 5th round.

Keen to see it but I think Fury might take him lightly this time (or less seriously). He was widely thought to have won the first fight, he definitively won the second...what more does he need to prove against Wilder?

I think he wins by decision but I wouldn't be surprised if Wilder produces a ko in the early rounds. Hope not - I like Fury.

This is a scenario. What make me think otherwise is I think Fury totally figured Wilder out and Wilder is never gonna learn to outbox Fury in two years. Fury also look in a good shape.

But it's a fight and anything can happen, Fury sometimes get over confident and put his hands behind his back... We will see a good fight

I know one guy who had an injury in his ear drum and he told me that once one ear is really fucked up, your equilibrium and hearing is never the same. Would this be applied to Wilder? I don't know, he is a millionnaire, those things can get fixed if you are wilder rich I guess

Wilder is a bum. Fury? Not so much. He's a real boxer, he has it all if you're careful. Fury is a great boxer even if he was in a different era.  A great chin for getting up in that 12th round against wilder, for just eating every over hand right Wilder threw in the first rounds of the second fight. His feints are unmatched taking in consideration all golden eras. Would he beat a prime Mike Tyson? No fucking way. But he'd be hanging up with Ali, Larry Holmes and Holyfield.

Boxing is for sure lacking the right fights but the talents are there. What you'd say about Canelo, GGG, Inoue, Fury, Usyk, Charlo, ... those guys rock and all are active.

Lol Fury would KO a “prime Tyson”. He is as versatile as a heavyweight as there has ever been.

He is but I don't think he'll ever come close to a prime Mike. He has flaws that Mike would exploit. Fury extended arms last long enough and a Mike body shot will just enable Fury.
Fury is a great boxer, but a 1986 Mike can beat anybody in a ring. I'm saying this being a big Fury fan. Change my mind

If we believe in Tysons prime, his handlers did their best to avoid Lennox then there is a good argument that they would do the same with Fury.

Tyson wouldn't be able to hit Fury, and im an iron mike fan before anyone else, Fury included, dont let that awkward tall look fool you Deontay is only landing occasionally due to his height and range, Fury would  jab Tyson to death like lennox lewis did and then hold and put his weight on him. Fury is no lewis but he's awkward tough and very effective. He's nobodies fool. I think wilder needs to start fast if he's to be a chance, at 237 he's going to gas out again like the second fight. I think its a mistake him coming up in weight unless he plans to go at him early. He could have come in light like the first fight and at least given himself 36 minutes to land at this weight after 18 minutes i think he gases out making it harder for him to land, will still always have the punchers chance but like the second fight, you can see the right hand coming once he's tired, its beyond telegraphed.

That jab doesn't only sting but land with power. I agree, both Fury and Lennox got it right. Same time, I don't think 1986 Mike will ever be there to feel it. 

Avoiding Lennox? not in the 80's. Lennox was nothing then. Lennox himself said that he fought Mike when he was very young and got beat.
Those prime Mike head movements won't allow anyone to land his jab. A prime Mike will make anyone be overwhelmed and just get into a defense mode waiting to get wasted. Fury himself will not be able to land any of his unorthodox punch and will be preoccupied by not getting hit.

There are actually 3 other really good heavyweight fights on the undercard. Hellinus Kowanaski 1 was awesome also have 2 undefeated prospects in Sanchez and Ajagba and another undefeated sparring partner in Anderson vs Vlad hell there is a 5th heavyweight fight but not familiar with those guys. But yeah this card is stacked with good heavyweight fights

Wilder can come at any weight, he is not going to win this unless Fury put his hands behind his back and dance and for some perfect two seconds Wilder will land. I do really think Fury will make a joke out of him. Wilder is entering his last fight, he'll never recover and will regret the day he signed his first contract with Fury.

I suspect that’s what will happen in this fight but the pace is not going to be particularly fast. Wilder has no gas tank and is not big on cardio and I believe fury, who actually does roadwork, will wear him down and take him out late.

I remember hearing Wilder say that he doesn’t like to do any running. Fury runs half marathons.

A lot of these new school strength and conditioning coaches say that aerobic base doesn’t matter for boxing which is ridiculous. You’re going three minute rounds times 12. You can’t do that anaerobically. So if you don’t have aerobic base eventually little by little you get worn down and at the end you have nothing which is what happened to Wilder time and time again during his trilogy.

i agree you got to have a real good gas tank for 12. Fury has it. Wilders super thin legs are indicative of a couch potato with a good diet. Wilder has no foundation to move his big upperbody.

I'm a Wes fan but you are not being fair to Wilder. He fought his ass off and validated not only his Championship reign but his career as well. He brought a much better arsenal than I've seen (credit to Malik Scott) and his chin, heart and recuperation powers are next level. He gave up 39lbs last night. Put that in perspective. Think Wildredo Gomez perhaps the best 122lb champion perhaps of all time fighting GGG Genaddiy Golovkin weighing 160 lbs.

Ehhh if those ropes weren’t there, Wilder would have ate the canvas way earlier similar to the 2nd fight. He was out on his feet multiple rounds and survived by laying against the ropes and trying to tie up. You can say he added to his arsenal but it also emptied the gas tank twice as fast.

It’s pretty typical for top prospects to get a bunch of cans early in their career. The problem is Wilder got used to knocking people out in the first round and decided that he didn’t need conditioning and it came back to bite him in the ass when he had to go into deep water.

There's no other way. Might get worse than Saunders. They're tempted to fight him because of the payday but they don't know it will probably be their last. Canelo should be avoided for the next 2/3 years.

Regarding whether he might now retire, Saunders concluded: “At the end of the day, I’m 31 years old, if I don’t ever wanna work again, wanna sit back, wanna chill, I can do that.

“And so it should be, I’ve put a lot of time into boxing and I’ve paid my dues. The sport’s been very, very good to me…

;D

Strength in the sense of weight lifting has nearly nothing to do with punching power. Back in his prime Joe Frazier couldn't push press 170 pounds over his head but his left hook was deadly.

Power is a separate entity from strength.  I bet Mayweather couldn't bench 225lbs.  When I train at the commercial gym in town the owner is a black belt in karate and owns a separate dojo. He does hang a heavy bag in his weight gym for when he feels like getting bag work in.  I can't count how many times I have had to suppress laughter as a 400lbs plus bencher hit the bag like a girl with pillow punches. Same concept as a guy who squats a million pounds. If he sprints like a slug he is strong but not powerful. Olympic lifting should be called power lifting and power lifting should be called strength lifting.

That lift I just posted of Joe is actual "weightlifting" as it is using leg/hip drive. Punching power comes from form/technique and torque. And yes, most "bodybuilders" are muscle bound clods who could not punch their way out of a paper bag :D

Yep, that's how boxers train, interesting seeing the barbell squats though.

Holyfield once explained that if boxers are not careful, weightlifting can hurt a boxers technique and even knockout ability, because boxing is amazing muscle memory, slipping and countering, it takes years to develop, and he said when you bench press you are supposed to go all the way down, but in that position you would be pulling your arm back too far before the explosive movement. Boxers want to throw straight punches, not cock back like a bar fight. At the highest level, a great boxer can see your arm slightly start to go back before a power shot, so they train to throw without cocking back too much to not telegraph, and the bench press develops different motor skills in relation to power. Most good boxing weight trainers incorporate weighted movements similar to the actual boxing movements.
