Double Impact: Deontay Wilder-Tyson Fury II Preview

[thenonpareil]

"On the surface, all a competent fighter has to do to defuse Wilder, 42-0-1 (41), is move to the right, keep him turning, and drop one-twos from an angle. But outpointing Wilder for long periods is no guarantee of hearing the final bell. Gerald Washington had some unexpected success early against Wilder until he was suddenly receiving consolations from his cornermen; Ortiz held the whip hand in both fights against Wilder only to find himself on the verge of seeing the black lights each time. And then, of course, there is Fury, who deked and dodged ellipses around Wilder throughout most of their first fight and still found himself on the canvas twice. This is one reason why Wilder is so patient in the ring. There is no softening-up process necessary for Wilder to demolish an opponent; cumulative damage is not a prerequisite; he picks his high-spots (moments when he fully commits to his bludgeonous right hand) with care, and few can withstand its direct impact."
