Comments Thread For: Wilder-Fury Trilogy is Targeted For Mid-July , Says Arum

I just hope the real version of Wilder entrance in the ring for this third fight... If not, R.I.P The Bronze Bomber

Perfect. Fury vs Joshua happens after Fury vs Wilder 3 and Joshua vs Pulev

[Squared.Circle]

I wanted Fury to win.
Was happy to see Fury get the win and in emphatic fashion, If for no other reason than to humble Wilder and to right the wrong of the first fight. I had Fury winning that fight even with the 2 knockdowns.

HOWEVER the backlash against a man who lost for the first time has been unreal.

Everyone and their dog has taken a shot at the Bronze Bomber. The trolling has been relentless, deserved or not.

Since that loss Fury has suddenly become the best thing since sliced bread while Wilder the "one trick pony" finally got "exposed"

A fighter with 40+ victories/KOs who also medalled at the Olympics finally gets "exposed" by the man who most "experts" and these same fans had not predicted would beat Wilder before their first fight...and with good reason.

Suddenly Wilder never was.
Its become almost comical reading all these anti Wilder sentiments.

In a perfect world the Fury v AJ fight happens NEXT.

If Wilder presses for the rematch so be it. I will look forward to it.
And i will be supporting Wilder this time around.

Feel free to hang your hat on this Fury victory and use it as a prediction of the outcome of the 3rd fight.
And feel free to bet your house on it!

Wilder was first exposed when he was getting outboxed by the much smaller Artur Szpilka until the knockout. He was exposed again when he was completely outboxed by Gerald Washington for five rounds up until the point he had to paw his jab through Washington’s guard, pull his arm down and send the right hand through. He was exposed further when he was outboxed and wobbled bad by Ortiz the first time around, yes, again, up until the knockout. He was embarrassingly exposed by Fury in the first fight and embarrassingly exposed again by Ortiz in the rematch. The rematch with Fury is just the latest account of him being made to look like an absolute wally.

In the first fight Wilder was poor, but did enough to justify for his fans at least that it might have been a draw, he was undoubtedly very poor in the second, at that point he could at least claim to be unbeaten to himself.

A quick turnaround for a third, after being absolutely molly whopped, no longer unbeaten, embarrassed and all round outclassed, you do wonder what his mental state will be.

I mean what is the game plan, is it still "push him back, right hand"? That seems like a recipe for disaster.

[Rusty Tromboni]

Wait, does that give Wilder enough time to manufacture 6 or 7 excuses for why he'll lose?

Or maybe he knows excuses won't be necessary this time since no one will be watching, anyway?

The only problem for Fury will be the motivation for a third fight, it's hard to motivate yourself for a guy you have beaten twice and absolutely dominated.

I agree, and its not Fury hasn't gone off the rails before after reaching the summit.

Wilders best hope is Fury crashing after the high of this last fight, or looking forwards to undisputed with Joshua.

Because if Fury comes in with the same mentality and as in shape as their last fight, in addition to being the more likely to improve being the better boxer, better ring IQ, coupled with Wilder's possible mental state after that beat down, all the ingredients are there for an even more lopsided flogging, especially if Fury sees it as the perfect way to push the undisputed fight into the stratosphere by really demolishing Wilder.

On the other hand, it would be one of the biggest comebacks if Wilder can do it.

[boliodogs]

Good. Get the damn unneeded fight over with ASAP so maybe AJ can fight Fury.

Completely agree and i don't think this is mentioned enough.

I have a strong premonition that Wilder is going fuck Fury up this time.

All he has to do is move his head going forward while landing punches. He cannot back up.

If Wilder lands his punches; Especially the left hook he should win this fight comfortably. He may even score the knockout victory.

However, he has to come forward and land punches while moving his head.
