I'm actually excited for this fight.
I love the way Fury has 'come back' so to speak trying to atone for being a loudmouth.
He was on an American Sports Talk show a couple of days ago over here - talking about his depression/anxiety/what a bad person he was and even though he was at the top of the world - he was just miserable and empty.
Pretty good clip out there with him and his kids - seems like a loving dad.
Be a great story if he redeemed himself so to speak and was back at the top.
Love redemption stories.

Trouble is, he's apt to shoot his mouth off without thinking. He's said a few disgraceful things about gay people. I think Wilder is going to win. Not that I like him much.

It's amazing we have an undefeated American Heavyweight Boxing Champ - WBC since 2015 - he's 40-0 - and nobody cares about him.
You look at the tomato cans he's beaten and it just shows you how far off Heavyweight Boxing has fallen.
Miss the days of Michael Dokes, Riddick Bowe, Tommy Morrison, Lennox Lewis, Razor Rudduck, of course Tyson and Holyfield - even Tony Tubbs and Tony Tucker, Trevor Berbick, Tyrell Biggs, Pinklon Thomas, Bonecrusher Smith.....

Got a question... Fury is 3 stone heavier than Wilder. Are they not supposed to be roughly equal weight in boxing?

Are they not supposed to be roughly equal weight in boxing? somebody correct me if i'm wrong I don't know if the rules have changed - haven't followed boxing closely in years upon years..... but heavyweight - as long as you 'make' that limit - you're ok - i.e. you can't be 'under' - it doesn't matter how much 'over' you are..........

Aye, that's right. He could be 50 stone heavier (and he was a couple of years ago I believe!) and still OK.

Just listened on radio. Draw. Fury was put down on the canvas twice.

I watched the fight. Fury outboxed him silly for every round except the two he was knocked down. He was completely robbed.
Everyone is gonna know that Fury won that fight but came out with a draw because it happened to take place in US.

Think it's more about the money from the rematch, rather than the location. Its both. He's an American champion fighting in America, they wouldn't give it to Fury. Any other country and it would have been a decision for Fury easily like everyone else sees it. But now they've managed to corrupt a draw out of it so now they can get the rematch money. As soon as those interviews started all they could ask was "Will there be a rematch!", "Where will the rematch be!", "Do you wanna rematch!".

Most interesting thing is they keep wheeling out all these ex-boxers to talk about last night's bout.
The ex-heavyweights all to a man sound like brain damaged stroke victims.
The lighter weight boxers all sound fine though.
