Sounds about right. I was thinking anywhere from 218 to 225 for Wilder, and somewhere between 245 and 255 for Fury.

Well, Wilder came in at 212.5 (9 lbs lesser than the lowest prediction). This is the lowest Wilder has ever weighed as a pro.
While, Fury at 256.5 (was about 5 lbs more than the heaviest prediction). Fury was 258 lbs in his last fight.

That’s an absolutely shocking 44 LBS difference! How is this gonna go considering the weights now?!

Not quite, he was 207 in his debut.

Can’t wait to hear how an undisputed top three heavy is too small to be a heavy

Fury gasses out in the later rounds and quits between rounds 9 and 10.

Deontay Wilder's average weight, whenever he's competed against a top-ten The Ring rated opponent, is only 216lbs.
The American’s average weight for his last two bouts is only 213lbs.
It’s clear that ‘The Bronze Bomber’ can make 200lbs easily.
A lot of people mocked my claim, despite Deontay Wilder previously stating that he'd consider making the move down to cruiserweight.
So I find it really ridiculous for people to have argued against this point, whilst falsely citing that Wilder only previously weighed light due to “illness”. What a pile of fµck¡ng bȕllsh¡t! Those stupid fµckȅrs that said such things are as dumb as fȕck!
Come on people, let’s hear those excuses! I want to see someone attempt to engage in this debate with me once again, despite the overwhelming amount of compelling evidence to support my stance! So bring it on – I dare you to do your worst!

Whether he COULD make 200 or not, 212.5 for this fight seems too light for me.

I do agree I think closer 220-225 would of been his goal.
Breland probably has a reason for this

Why would he want to make 200lbs? It's completely pointless. He's wbc heavyweight champion.

Anyone who doesn’t think Wilder could make cruiser safely and comfortably doesn’t know how cutting weight works.

You should be thanking him for NOT starting another thread about it.

Don't get me started on the 20 identical threads with the same people posting identical predications over and over again! Some are actually just copying and pasting word for word across threads now!

Deontay Wilder previously stated that he'd consider making the move down to cruiserweight after facing AJ. People said his ability to fulfil this claim was categorically impossible, despite the American weighing 220lbs or less for 63% of his bouts.
I read all sorts of ludicrous excuses as to their reasons why Wilder was physically incapable of making 200lbs, but there’s so much evidence to support Deontay’s claims that it actually seems moronic to even claim otherwise. The numbers simply don’t lie!
Does anybody sincerely believe that a fully hydrated version of Deontay Wilder that weighs 212½lbs cannot make 200lbs with consummate ease?

No comment on Fury coming in at 256?
I thought people were predicting he would come in lighter or at least the same weight he was for Wlad

Similar weight than last time but looks in much better shape which can't be a bad thing. I think he might surprise a lot of people and be more aggressive and go for the knockout.
Stamina is the big question mark though.

Given the blob that he was a year ago, 256 seems reasonable.
