Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury - 1 December 2018

[oogiebe]

We'll see on Saturday evening,

Yup and thereafter we'll have some other topic to kick the dead horse with! Cheers!

I'm hoping Wilder wins really as i don't like Fury or his style,but i can see him causing Wilder lots of problems,interesting clash of styles though

It really is. Wilder's pure athleticism and raw power, along with his boxing skills shortcomings v. the most peculiar styled big HW I've seen. It's just too bad TF had such a layoff. It would have been more fun 3.5 years ago.

True,the layoff itself would have been less of an issue if it wasn't for the weight gain,drugs and drink,true fairytale win if Fury pulls it off.

[Ruthless-RKO]

To think Wilder just windmills, he connects.

Wonder if they’ll find room for them to sit with all them ticket sales.

I'm loathed to ask this. Bit are the blue spaces seats sold, or seats available?
Sorry

[DrDuke]

Holy f#$%, I'm so hyped for this fight. Christmas comes earlier this year. If someone makes this fight not happen, I'll find and kill him.

Blue is available. So ringside is sold out.

On the website, you click the blue circle and buy the seat for example.

So they haven’t even opened the top tier?

Look in the far corners. I think some are opened. But they the cheapest seats

JUDGES!!

The California State Athletic Commission has approved England’s Phil Edwards,

the United States’ Alejandro Rochin

and Canada’s Robert Tapper to judge their 12-round fight Saturday night for Wilder’s WBC heavyweight title.

American Jack Reiss will be the referee.

Reiss, of Oxnard, California, will officiate his first Fury fight. He has been the referee for four of Wilder’s fights, knockouts of Jason Gavern, Eric Molina, Johann Duhaupas and Chris Arreola.

Edwards, of Preston, England, has worked four Fury fights – twice solely as a judge and twice as a referee/judge. In accordance with British Boxing Board of Control regulations, a referee also serves as the judge for non-title fights in the United Kingdom.

Edwards previously was assigned to judge one of Wilder’s fights. Wilder stopped England’s Audley Harrison in the first round of that April 2013 match at Sheffield Arena in Sheffield, England.

Rochin, of Chula Vista, California, and Tapper, of Winnipeg, Canada, have not judged fights involving Wilder or Fury.

Most recently, Edwards was the referee/judge of Fury’s technical knockout of Sefer Seferi on June 9 at Manchester Arena in Manchester, England. Fury’s first fight in 2½ years wasn’t remotely competitive and Switzerland’s Seferi (23-2-1, 21 KOs) declined to continue following the fourth round.

Edwards also judged both of Fury’s fights against Dereck Chisora.

In his most noteworthy, recent title bout, Edwards scored American Maurice Hooker a 117-111 winner against Terry Flanagan. That 12-round fight for the then-vacant WBO junior welterweight title was contested June 9 at Manchester Arena in Manchester, England, Flanagan’s hometown.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Edwards has only judged in UK before this fight. Might be a strange choice.

I don't mind Jack Riess as ref.
Size wize, he is OK, some of the smaller refs would struggle getting in between these giants.
At least it's not Floyd's mate, Kenny "fondle fingers" Bayless

[Onetimeonly]

He'll do fine to count over fury.

[oogiebe]

Tyson will give a masterclass and go down on history

LOL, I agree he'll go down, but not in history.

Terrific and very fair fight analysis by Paulie Malignaggi.

LOL, I agree he'll go down, but not in history.

He will be the first undefeated fighter to regain the heavyweight titles he should never of lost. Wilder will be disheartened and stopped in round 11

It won't get to round 11. Wilder in 5 or 6.

I’m really looking forward to this fight now. Gutted I’m with sh!tyy TalkTalk and don’t even have the option to buy BT PPV, really hoping radio picks it up.

Bunce and Costello are out there doing 5 Live podcasts all week in the build up, so I would assume that they're covering the fight live.
