Wilder Vs Fury 2

Now here's a fight I've been waiting for, for a while now!

For those who follow boxing, I believe we can all agree that Tyson Fury won the first fight fair and square although the judges called it a draw.

I don't agree with the statements that the two knockdowns from Wilder were enough to make up for the boxing lesson he was tought inside that ring for the majority of those 12 rounds.

Now having said that, I believe that this second fight is going to be much different than the first bout.

After watching the weigh-ins I believe that Tyson Fury is a man of his word and will bring the fight to Wilder which can end up being really good for him, but at the same time it can end up being really bad for him as well.

Why? Well Fury is weighing a massive 273 pounds for this fight, 16 pounds heavier than their first bout, which is a clear statement that he will indeed pursue a knockout victory over Wilder and he's not considering outboxing him again and leave it to the judges hands.

Now on the other hand, Wilder is weighing 231 pounds for this fight, 18 pounds heavier than he had ever been for any fight in his career. I believe the reason for that is that he was man-handled on the first fight and he is trying to avoid that on this one.

The problem with this I believe is that Wilder is playing right into Fury's game plan. From my perspective, Tyson Fury has now a better chance to either knock Wilder out, or worst case scenario, more convincingly win at the judges eyes.

Wilder always has the puncher's chance, but this time he's losing some of his speed and probably stamina as well (watching his fights you can see that when he is pressured he tends to get tired easily).

I see Fury winning this fight on the scorecards or possibly a knockout on the later rounds but I can also see Wilder winning the fight by knockout (it has to happen on the first 4 rounds, due to him beaing heavier this time around).

What do you think?
