Topic: [ BOXING ]: Fury vs Wilder III in Las Vegas on 18th July 2020 !!! - page 8. (Read 6673 times)

I can't wait for weekend to finally kick off this fight and prefight press conference was more like presidential debate and Fury again said Deontay Wilder is mentally weak, claiming he lives in his mind rent free 

Dont know what pressure Wilder has created, but Fury completely dominated on press conference.

I like these by Fury:

1) If you have just one excuse why you have lost - that can be true, I can believe in that. But you have like fifty  

2) If you say that I have cheated and you would beat me - when then you say you trained harder and changed all the coaching personal?

3) Wilder: "I have 10 title defences" Fury: "I havent competed in 3 years, walked in the ring and beat you. Did it for the second time. And now I'm gonna repeat it. All of your opponents were punching bags"

4) Wilder: "I am the kind. I am the warrior" Fury: "according to your last fight you are so-so kind" I just rofled

5) "Castrat !"

Perhaps this is a strategy of psychological pressure on Fury (as we see it worked for you and you started to worry, maybe it will work on Fury as well). But in fact, I don't think Wilder would cheat in any way - if he had such plans, he would not have announced them publicly. I must note that the closer the fight, the more tension grows around it.

Wilder is not afraid, he is either dumb or really disrespectful (he even did not say hello to a women who manage this conference), because he was beaten.


This would be a worse thing to do. Instead of beating a guy who has cheated, or beating a guy that cheats right now, he wants to cheat himself. Beating a cheater will only make him greatest. But cheating against a "cheater" (act of cheating wasnt proved) makes him no different or better.

I have a similar opinion as Bob Arum in this video. Everything the boxing sports media has created was a storyline about Tyson Fury winning this trilogy and has created much hype for him.

I would begin to be cautious as a bettor. Wilder might be beginning to have the psychological advantage. He said that Fury cheated and that he will be doing an eye for an eye. Is Wilder implying that he will also cheat to win?

What happened to Wider, I only watch the first 5 minutes of the video, he seemed not to focus and what was he doing? is he playing music or video game, why wear a headphone during the press conference. I saw him afraid, and I think we will see the worst Wilder in this fight, if the last fight was through stoppage, this time could be a KO.

Wilder did seem annoyed and agitated by Fury's trash talk. He does not seem confident at all. This is not the same fighter who once said he wanted a body on his record. Losing in such a devastating manner has changed his personality. If the aggression is not there prior to the fight it makes me question his frame of mind and if he is mentally prepared for the challenge ahead of him.

I cant wait up and the counter still up and I would really be waiting up for this one and lets see on how those two would make out those interactions.For sure Wilder can really have that awkward moment?

Edit: The timer has already passed and the stream/press conf isn't live yet.It seems it might be delayed.

This is going to be fun watching Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder Main Event Press Conference, and I am sure Fury will try to get under Wilder skin and make him nervous, who is mentally very unstable and immature:

Yes, holding the 4th fight will be logical, but unfortunately we all know how boxers love to dodge a difficult opponent and run away from the meeting that the rest of the boxing world is waiting for. Sometimes it lasts for years (sometimes for a decade, such as in the case of Povetkin and Klitschko), I hope that this will not take place here. For example, I even get tired of "negotiations" and constant postponements of the date of the battle.

I've watched that knock down by Wilder a few times, and I've yet to come to the conclusion if Fury was ever knocked out. I did consider that potentially the first punch of the combination actually rocked him, and the second might have woken him up a little. However, if you look at the landing that Fury took, it seems that he intentionally broke his fall with what I believe was his left arm if my memory serves me well.

Normally, when someone loses consciousness they aren't going to have that sort of reaction, instead their arms, and legs sort of go in free mode, and flop everywhere. He seemed to control the descent, and potentially even rode the shots to a degree. He also looked to be awake on the ground, albeit maybe a little bit shocked, and but he kept this sort of death stare, and got up composed, and quite frankly I thought he survived the onslaught of Wilder's attacks directly after that, and might have potential won the last minute of the fight rocking Wilder with a counter punch.

The most memorable part for me, and this by be one of the most memorable boxing moments in recent history for me is how Wilder reacted. First of all he's dancing convinced that he had won the fight, and Fury rises out of nowhere, and Wilder's face was just pure shock. I think that rattled him more than any of Fury's shots that night, he was completely dumbfounded, as well as I how Fury managed to get up after those two monstrous hits.

This fight is the talk of the town and am looking forward to it unlike what we experienced with the lack of thrills and publicity with the Anthony Joshua versus Oleksandr Usyk fight. Am giving this fight to Tyson Fury and I hope it ends that way to put an end to the whole Fury and Wilder row. Wilder is a loud mouth but he is keeping quiet this time around. I hope he gets punished once more.

In the unlikely event that Wilder wins then we are going to need a fourth fight to decide who is the best fighter as they will be one win, one loss and one draw on their trilogy and the fans are not going to have it end that way and will demand a fourth fight between them, however this scenario is very unlikely as Fury is probably going to win, he is simply better than Wilder as most of the time he relied on his punching power to destroy his opponents and Fury has a strong enough chin to resist him.

We'll see the new Deontay Wilder in the fight that will take place in the next few days, and even though Wilder has had a change or new strategy in dealing with Fury, I think the result will be the same and lose.
This is the boxer's third meeting after Imabang in December 2018 and Fury's seventh-round TKO victory to claim Wilder's title in February 2020, and I can't wait to see a new Wilder in his third fight against Fury. and if Fury wins, is there any more excuses from Wilder.

Just days to go before the fight takes place  

Will we be able to hit 100 votes in the poll before the start of the fight?

I hope so. I have been writing for a long time that the chances of Wilder, in my opinion, are much higher than generally accepted. I don't know if I will bet money on this fight, but for my reasons, it turns out that I should, since the odds that bookmakers show now are very strongly distorted by the mood of the crowd.

I watched highlights of both fights and there is no doubt Fury was the better fighter in the first. Wilder had odd moments here and there where he tried unleash those ferocious right hands and couple of times he rattled Fury but for a big man of 6'9'' such as Fury to be knocked down like that in the 12th and final round, it shows great spirit for him to get up and then end the round as the dominant fighter.

He carried on in the same spirit in the second fight but destroyed Wilder. Fury is one of the best heavyweight fighters I have seen in many years, he is on a different level to the current crop of fighters.

Have you seen their first fight completely? At least check score cards. No doubt Wilder won the first round. That last round punch - if you look the replay, you would see that this punch came in passing. And it was round 12 - there was not so much power in it. That 12 round was scored 10-8 in Wilder favour. Most of the other rounds Fury won. If not that punch, it will be 10-9 (even if Fury would have lost that round) and Fury would win with 1 point advantage. That one punch saved Wilder from his first loss actually.

He cannot and he should not fight the way he did in his last two fights against Fury, he has no chance to win if he'll just wait to drop his big bomb, that will not happen Fury is always moving always find a good angle, you know in boxing it's hard to hit a moving target, he must show something different like imposing himself, punching a lot and bobbing and weaving can help, he must show to Fury that he is a totally different fighter, few more days before we see the most anticipated fight of the year.

I don't really think that Joshua was holding back on purpose against Usyk, it is just very hard to throw punches against opponents that are always moving their head and body like Usyk did and also how Typen fury does. So as a heavy puncher like Joshua or Wilder you can not just go in and start swinging like crazy from the first minute on or you will be very tired very fast because punches that you miss are extremely exhaustive for a boxer. So you might want to wait a bit until your opponent becomes tired and slower.
