Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury - 1 December 2018

[ewenhay]

Nice table but they should focus on the total number of wins rather than the percentage

[ewenhay]

Also a table with total title fights and wins for British fighters regardless of venue would be worth a look too

He just fought Ortiz in March.

Ortiz is 54 though

52 at the time

Apparently he was suffering from a fierce case of the piles in the lead up to their fight as well

Didn’t make the table with 2 fights? Has he had more?

Where did Lewis lose to McCall?

[ThereByTheGrace]

Lewis lost in london. The us loss might be a draw with holyfield?

[ThereByTheGrace]

Maybe brook just had the one fight in the us. Sorry my bad i see lewis was a draw. Some record.

[Ruthless-RKO]

The draw is against Holy. He hasn’t lost in the States.

[Nightmare Roy]

Fury is only 2 bags of sugar heavier than when he fought Klit

Yeh. Brook only fought Porter in USA. For a split second I thought the GGG loss was in US. Lol

Fury is 256 and Wilder 212... I think about it and have to say there's a method to Fury's "madness" coming in heavy...

Wilder is lightest he's been since 2008, clearly overtraining... Something tells me, Fury may just take it to Wilder and break his body down...

It's the craziest thing, Fury looks so damn slim but he's 11 pounds heavier than the Klitschko fight... He's found that sweet spot of maintaining the speed but keeping the bulk

As slim as Fury looks like I thought he'd of been 244 (plus or minus 2 pounds) which is the interesting thing. Wilder's practically a Cruiserweight. Painfully thin for someone 6'7".

[KiwiRider]

Given the fighters purses, "The Ghost" must really want to fight and isn't just in it for the money.
When he said he was coming back, I thought he might be broke.
But $25 grand is chicken feed for him. He could have got more on another card higher up the roster.

[Stuarty]

Fuckin hope so mate!

Never wanted a fighter to win so much

It's certainly the most I have wanted anybody to win in a very, very long time. I've been backing Fury by KO from when this poll was started but It's still going to be horrible to watch: I like it when I don't care that much and am not fussed who wins. Fury winning will be absolutely epic.

I think Fury three years back would've done Wilder but I think Wilder ko's Tyson tomorrow. I hope I'm wrong because I'd love Fury to pull it off.

As far as the fight as a spectacle goes, even if it is crap, it's still interesting. Like the Wlad fight... Can't take your eyes off it! Same tomorrow.

Yeah, Fury was expected to be lighter, but he's still in an appropriate weight span for him. Physycally The Gypsy King is ready.

You people with your weight measurements

Honeyghan had 3 title fight in the USA

Wilder looked like the lanky new bassist in Slipknot at the weigh in with his rubbish black skelliington mask.

At least when he had the Eyes Wide Shut mask he looked like he might have some sort of illuminati thing going on for the pizzagate crew. It wasn’t terribly menacing, and made even more ridiculous when he kept it on for interviews.

He’s such a bellend.

He's losing the mind games and will lose the fight on home ground,and yes he's a prize cock.

[Boxerbeetle]

I had a dream about this fight last night and I’m afraid it’s bad news for British boxing fans - Fury shows none of his trademark head movement, gets hammered early on with huge right hands and stopped within 3.

Admittedly, Fury looked more like Peter Kay than himself for some reason, and my dreams are usually wrong anyway, so perhaps all is not lost just yet.

[samwbr]

Fury looks weak and unfit. He's never been a prize specimen but he doesn't look battle ready.

[keithmoonhangover]

Those extra pounds that Fury is carrying are going to hinder his performance. The weight around his middle will have an effect on his upperbody movement. His footwork will be slower as he's 9 lbs heavier than the Klitschko fight.

I cannot understand why he has made the choice (and it is a choice) to step into the ring with Wilder in less than top condition. He's just making the fight harder for himself.

And the BT guys are saying he's in great shape. What a load of BS.
