Comments Thread For: Hearn Expects Tyson Fury To 'School' Deontay Wilder in Trilogy

[slimPickings]

My O my how times have changed.

Time was when virtually NO ONE including Hearn gave Tyson any chance of lasting the distance let alone beat Wilder!!!

Now these same "experts" give Wilder NO chance of beating Tyson!!!

Only in boxing.

Fury's never come across so hungry and focused for battle. When someone of his ring IQ has your number it doesn't bode well when he's in such a strong mental state. Still improving and growing into the Kronk style too and he'll make the build-up excruciating for Wilder.

As regards Wilder, who really knows what's going on? Radio silence regarding this fight suggests he's either got his head down grafting (bit like the ultra low profile Froch had in Groves rematch). Or he's gone entirely the other way and he's been broken. Time will tell.

Good assessment! Fury is obviously the better fighter and a heavy favourite. That said, if Wilder has got his head down you never know, one shot can change everything with the heavyweights!

Wilder will win if fury don't use PEDS.

I still don't get how this fight is happening. It doesn't make sense for either fighter. Wilder could go and take a couple of easy fights and come back properly. Fury doesn't need it - Wilder is still risky and Fury gains nothing from beating Wilder again.

About the only thing I can think is that Wilder is happy to retire if he loses and sees this as his best payday... with a small chance that he wins and gets to have a couple of big undisputed fights to finish off.

Fury won

Really there is no need for a 3rd fight and there wouldn't be one save for legal situations

I know. There shouldn't be 3rd fight. Wilder getting draw was bad enough.
But I do think wilder will do better in 3rd fight than 2nd fight

When all else fails, when the “American takeover” is revealed as a total failure, when you no longer have the “billion dollar budget”, when your app falls apart, when you are relegated to fights in someone’s backyard/garden, when your leading contender gets bingo’d, when you’re begging for fights other the likes of Top Rank and Golden Boy, I guess the only thing left to energise the EDL/BF incels is good old fashioned bashing of the American former champion who you created a multi-year long campaign to soil and discredit

Hearn was hardly "bashing" Wilder lol just stating facts; Fury has schooled Wilder twice and Fury is the betting favourite.

Passed all VADA testing for both fights. Next excuse?

I think Wilder KO's Fury in this fight. Wilder put him down twice in the first fight and people are acting like Fury has this.

There's too much overconfidence and last time Wilder didn't even show up. Not to mention he got hit on the side/back of the head - that's unlikely to happen again 2 fights in a row

People said the same when Aj took the Ruiz rematch straight away....

It's happening because Wilder didn't show up the last fight. Even Fury said "That wasn't Deontay Wilder in there". Wilder can win with one punch. And if he does - no one will be questioning why it happened

Even if he comes in clean, Fury out boxed him in every round. PEDs don't give you ring IQ or ability. I'm not convinced Wilder would be able beat him regardless of Fury's bloodwork.
I really want Wilder to have a good showing to make the Joshua fight worthwhile, and maybe even the Whyte fight just for laughs.
