wonder what his music will be

IM BLACK, BLACK SHOES, BLACK JESUS, BLACK CAR, BLACK TIE, BLACK BEANS, BLACK BLACK BLACKITY BLACK

will be hard to top

Just did a quick check on tickets for Fury v Wilder 3, appears like there are plenty of seats still available and the prices aren't cheap.
As a comparison ...
Same seat same arena T Mobile in Vegas
Ward v Kovalev 1 $500
Fury v Wilder 3 $1505

theyre just banging this one out, nowhere near the promotion the other 2 fights got

and you hardly hear a word about the undercard despite them staking it

Yeah I can believe it too ^
Watched a bit of todays promotion outside the arena in Vegas today, a bit hokey and slapped together last minute if you ask me.
Didn't seem to be that much interest if I'm being honest about it.

Judging by today no way Wilder weighs in at 223+
He looks light.
He'll probably go with the flat footed one punch hail mary and it'll be over inside 8.
What else is he going to do, outmuscle or outbox a 260-280 pound Heavyweight over twelve rounds ?
He could be outweighed by 30 - 40 pounds.

No need for the same promotion. This event has a history and a much better undercard.

NSAC Changes Referee, One Judge From Its Original Panel Of Officials

Referee: Russell Mora

Judges
Tim Cheatham
Dave Moretti
Steve Weisfeld

A different referee and one new judge will work the third Tyson Fury-Deontay Wilder heavyweight title fight than the original list of officials the Nevada State Athletic Commission approved.

Boxing Scene has learned that the NSAC has assigned veteran Nevada referee Russell Mora to Fury-Wilder III on Saturday night. It initially approved Connecticut’s Mike Ortega as the referee for their July 24 fight at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Their fight for Fury’s WBC title was postponed 2½ months because Fury tested positive for COVID-19 early in July.

Two of the three judges originally chosen for Fury-Wilder III – Nevada residents Tim Cheatham and Dave Moretti – still will score their rescheduled fight at T-Mobile Arena. New Jersey’s Steve Weisfeld will join them at ringside for this ESPN/FOX Sports Pay-Per-View main event.

Another Nevada judge, Patricia Morse Jarman, originally was chosen to work this high-profile bout between Fury (30-0-1, 21 KOs), of Manchester, England, and Wilder (42-1-1, 41 KOs), of Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Morse Jarman scored Yordenis Ugas a 115-113 winner over Manny Pacquiao in her most recent top assignment, a 12-round fight for Ugas’ WBA “super” welterweight title.

Moretti and Weisfeld each scored the Cuban-born Ugas a 116-112 victor of what the Philippines’ Pacquiao has decided will be the final fight of his celebrated career. Mora also was the referee for the Pacquiao-Ugas fight August 21 at T-Mobile Arena.

Moretti and Weisfeld were two of the three judges for the Fury-Wilder rematch in February 2020 as well. They both had Fury in front 59-52 entering the seventh round of that scheduled 12-rounder at MGM Grand Garden Arena.

The third judge that night, Connecticut’s Glenn Feldman, scored Fury a 58-53 winner through six rounds.

Fury won that bout by seventh-round technical knockout because Wilder’s former assistant trainer, Mark Breland, threw in the towel to prevent Fury from taking too much punishment. Wilder was knocked down once apiece in the third and fifth rounds of that one-sided bout.

Judges decided the outcome of the first Fury-Wilder fight in December 2018. Wilder floored Fury once apiece in the ninth and 12th rounds, but the former champion settled for a 12-round split draw that night at Staples Center in Los Angeles.

California’s Alejandro Rochin scored that 12-rounder for Wilder, 115-111. Canada’s Robert Tapper scored their first fight for Fury, 114-112.

England’s Phil Edwards had their first encounter even, 113-113.

Press Conference

I'm thinking about buying this strictly for the undercard. I can't remember if that has ever happened to me before. Anyone?

Strictly for the undercard? Not interested in the main event?

Don't get me wrong, I'm happy as hell they have a mostly HW undercard.

Without the undercard the way it is, I wouldn't even consider buying this fight.

Meaning by "the way it is" you see an easy Fury win?

You've stated that Wilder has a decent KO chance.

Bandog wrote: ↑05 Oct 2021, 07:05 Wilder hitting Fury to the body with big shots the first few rounds is the key. Hard to miss that, and will help set up a head shot. Furys soft flabby midsection is his weakness.

If Wilder just headhunts he will probably lose. Hopefully the ref won't allow fouling this time.

Can't see DW trying that.

Just too many weaknesses in his technique. Like the windmill stuff, it might work against slow static fighters, but Fury's not that.

Fury will never look as chiselled as some in the division, but just like Usyk, he's got great stamina.

So if Wilder is to win, he's got to land the kind of punch that saw off both Stiverne and Brezeale in quick fashion.

What are the chances of that happening against the rather frenetically mobileTyson Fury?

I'd give DW 25% for a win, but no more. To beat Fury, you must outbox him, and many could, but Wilder isn't one of them.

Both men have big hearts, and neither will quit or stop trying. That's what makes this interesting.

You don't think Wilder can hit Furys body? Much easier than hitting him to the head.

The undercard the way it is makes the buy compelling,.

Wilder always has a chance for a KO. Never said decent chance though.

Wilder is going to bring back the title where it belongs! USA USA USA

Seriously though, the odds have it roughly right. I'd say Wilders' chances are about 30%. He doesn't speak the king's English, but I think he's somewhat articulate. He can put thoughts together; sort of.

As long as he puts his punches together, the title is coming back home.

About 25% voted for Wilder in this poll. Too much for the Big Dosser.

even if fury wins again i say they have a 4th

after all wilder has the power to ko anybody, he'll do it eventually

nah, no 4th frikkin fight! beating him 3 times should be enuff!

wilder will get beat up badly. he will lick his wounds for at least a year.

then he should get another severe hiding from dillian whyte.

wilder is finished.

I'm rooting for Wilder. I would say he has a decent chance.
