First match highlights. Despite a last round knockdown from Wilder, many thought that Fury had a clear point advantage. The bout ended in a draw.




Rematch is happening on Saturday, and sparks are flying.



Who you got ERA? And will Anthony Joshua finally face the winner?

Fury's always going to be the favourite, though Wilder can never be counted out as his punches are so devastating.

I expect they'll do Fury vs Joshua at wembley

I give it to Fury in a rematch just because I think he can fight the smarter fight, but knowing Wilder smelled blood in the first fight he may just go in more aggressively earlier in the rematch.

Won't be surprised if Fury pulls it off, but I gotta go with Wilder.

Fury came close to losing his last fight, got a bad cut that could open up again. Wilder matures every time he fights and may not have even peaked yet.

Fury's changed camps and is coming in heavier with the idea that he's going to knock Wilder out. Going for the KO might be a bluff, but fighting heavy is not Fury's game. Just a bigger, slower target for Wilder to hit this time.

It really depends on how aggressive Wilder is. If he comes in too cool for school he's going to lose on points. If he's aggressively looking for a knockout from round 1 then something will probably land and end it.

I think Wilder gets him this time. Fury putting on a repeat performance and avoiding a KO/TKO doesn't seem super likely to me.

Too many unknowns to call this one. I think Fury wins if he doesn't catch an early steamer from Wilder. An early round heavy punch is going to sting a lot more than a round 12 punch.

If it goes to points I'd say Fury as he's definitely more technical and has better movement. We'll see what this new camps intentions are. Fighting fire with fire probably isn't the best idea.

Wilder.

Fury doesn't have knockout power and Wilder only needs to land 1 big hit(maybe a few based on the first fight)
Not sure who the source is but a rumour circulating is that Fury was dropped in camp this week too.

super hard to say, fury's got the skill, wilder's got the power.

Wilder has grown since their last fight, he's gotten much more patient and measured. But his overall game is still the same.

Fury has his number IMO, knows how to maintain distance, knows how to keep Wilders' hands occupied and how to minimise the danger. He was cracking wilder well towards the end of the last fight as well. But as always, he needs to be perfect for 12 rounds, Wilder for a few seconds. And Fury got dropped last when he broke his concentration.

I think Wilder is going to go in infinitely more aggressive and win in an early to mid round knockout

Its really tough to say. Fury has the skill to outbox him for 12 rounds again, but Wilder has the ability to end it with one punch in any given round. The one thing that I think could be different coming off the first match is Wilder could feel that Fury doesn't have the power to hurt him and come out more aggressive, less worried about being countered.

Wilder is a small favorite in most sportsbooks (I have seen it being even odds in like one British gambling site, but I mostly look at American ones so no clue how prevalent that is).

In any case, I am a firm believer that in a reasonably even fight in Vegas you always go with the American boxer.

Looks like Fury got bigger and Wilder got bigger. I think if Wilder lands that one punch it looks good for him. but if it goes 12 Fury will win, he doesn't like to stay down if he does get knocked down.

I got fury.

"Wilder cant box for shit, got easily outclassed and outscored almost every round last time and only got to keep his belts via crooked judges, so I'm gonna go for Wilder."

I see Fury outboxing Wilder but Wilder will always have that atomic bomb in his hands.

Was all fury but think his going to get ko. Changed trainer late and rumours are very little sparring due to the cut he he got last time out.

Fury won the first fight, if we're being real. But man I don't know, taking a shot like he did from Wilder in the first fight, I wouldn't bet on him surviving another one like that. That's one of the hardest shots I've ever seen a fighter take and not be KO'ed, in any combat sport... if Wilder can land another shot like that then I think he'll win the rematch.

fury's a better boxer and will play for points. Wilder got Lucky the judges are awful in this sport. I guess they do it half the time for the rematch.

That's the thing though... can Fury go 12 rounds without making a mistake? He didn't last time. Wilder really only needs one shot.

Wilder's knocking Fury out dumb early. That right hand is a gift from God.

Fury switched his coach. I hate when fighters (or any athlete in their prime) do that. So I think for that reason I have Wilder.

Either way there is a clause in the contract for the loser to invoke a trilogy fight so we're prob getting another one.

Fury and I think he will knock him out. Is this the OT now or will there be something going up later today?

All Fury needs to do is survive, he's the better boxer. But Wilder hits harder than anyone else so at any moment Fury might start seeing stars if he slips up.

Which by my count he did handily last time. It still weirds me out that Boxing is so reduced that I don't have a good sense of context for these fighters. Fury continues to be surprisingly good for his age, weight, condition - and Wilder continues to be surprisingly bad at strategy and pacing for someone with his right bomb. Luckily for his opponents I suppose.

Anyway it's the same as all Wilder fights - if he gets a perfect one off it'll be devastating, but Fury has taken plenty of bombs from Wilder - and knocked down but not out last time. And Fury's reach and sheer scale just make him a challenging tangly brawler and an edifice for other boxers to bang their heads and chins on.

Also with those two in particular, I always think Fury could shed some fat - and Wilder could use a little. Some boxers are just naturally shredded, but Wilder always looks like he's just cut water weight for aesthetics.

Wilder.

I think the fight will be stopped because the cut Fury had from the last fight will be targeted by Wilder and opened up again.
That cut was really bad and probably needs longer to heal.

Considering his entire training camp has been setup to knock him out I reckon you will see that you are wrong tonight. Fury clearly sees an opportunity with Solders style to KO him. I'm going Fury in 6.

Regarding the first fight : Unless you can justify it by reasoning what Fury achieved in rounds 1,2,3, and 11 to be given a clear nod over Deontay, stop using the word robbery.

The very style employed by Fury ensures that he will never be robbed. Even in his fight with Wlad all he tangibly achieved was to land 3 more jabs per round, exactly like the fight with Deontay, what a surprise !

He's given the nod because of his herky jerky style and ring generalship, not because of his activity or power.

I'm not saying he didn't deserve the nod in the first fight but Deontay had an argument for the first 3 rounds and he clearly won the 11th, therefore a path to a legitimate draw was possible, but a robbery ? Nah.
