Picking Wilder. I don't think Fury has the conditioning to go the distance and Wilder packs dynamite in his gloves!

Fury will either technically outbox him and just keep him at distance with jabs and win on points of Wilder will catch him with one of his reckless swings and knock him out.

I've got Wilder winning by Knockout in the later rounds, mostly because Wilder's power punches are really hard to defend unless you can keep him from throwing them and I don't think Fury has the kind of power he needs to make Deontay Wilder hesitant to come in. It'll be interesting to see if Fury can go the distance at this point against an aggressive come forward kind of fighter like Wilder especially after the long layoff, while Wilder has the same Knockout Power in the championship rounds as he does in the opening rounds.
Also Wilder came in really light for this fight, he's about 5 inches taller than me and is coming in almost 5 pounds lighter at 212.5 pounds against Fury's 256 pounds. Looks like Wilder's training for speed in this fight, trying to undercut Fury's biggest advantage.
It's a hell of a fight: The most proficient offensive fighter in the division today vs the most proficient defensive fighter in the division today.

Lots of tension in this main event. Wilder's having more success than would be expected in penetrating the defense early on.

I disagree, but am not surprised by, that decision.

I disagree, but am not surprised by, that decision. Fury won all but two rounds. Vegas thinking about that big money rematch as per usual.

I disagree, but am not surprised by, that decision. Who did you have, and do you think it was a robbery?

I disagree, but am not surprised by, that decision. Who did you have, and do you think it was a robbery? Had it for Fury. Wilder had the two knockdowns but I don't think it was enough to close the gap. That being said, scoring was all over the map online, especially during the early rounds.

I've never seen a guy get knocked down, look out of it... Then rise like the Undertaker and almost win the round after the knockdown. Wilder absolutely stole the draw with that 12th knockdown. If the fight was in England Fury probably would have won like how Jeff Horn won in Australia. Except this time Fury would have deserved the win IMO, they robbed Pac.

Fury kind of reminds me a giant Floyd Mayweather. Unfortunately for him his opponents are so much stronger than Floyds.

Fury won that fight by a mile. Boxing is a joke

Great fight!!! I disagree with the result but its Furys fault it was close (2 KDs technically gives Wilder 2 10-8 rounds) the HWs are back and giving great fights. Thank God the K brothers arent coming back

Adonis Stevenson is apparently in a medically induced coma, according to some French language reports here in Canada.

I scored it 113-113 draw! The two 10-8 rounds evened the score card as Fury was winning the fight. That was a tremendous performance by Fury and he gained a ton of fans.
