Put me in the Fury TKO camp. I'll go round 9 or 10.
 
Fury, mid to late round stoppage. Wilder's only shot is landing the big right. No way he can win on the cards seeing as he has lost 17 of his 19 rounds against Fury.
 
I think Wilders best chance is to come out swinging from the beginning and hope to connect early. Otherwise his chances drop as the fight goes past mid rounds.
 
Wilder’s training has seemed to have gotten better, but you have to think Fury wins again. I personally want Wilder to win, have followed him for a long time and think he’s extremely entertaining, but Fury is just a master boxer. I do think Wilder has a chance though. Fury getting up in the 12 round in the first fight is one of the craziest things i’ve seen in sports, that combo knocks out 99% of boxers.

His gym is steel. That combo would have literally put me in the hospital
 
If Fury is in top shape he will win if he comes in taking it lightly it could cost him the Belt . Fury was in top shape last time and Wilder was overmatched but a slowed even a little bit and landing a big punch becomes more likely.

I think Fury figured him out and thats to have Wilder fight walking backwards no matter what. Thats the key negating Wilder's power.
 
So if Wilder had gone to the neutral corner after the second knockdown of Fury, would Fury have beaten the count? It looked like that gave Fury more time. That was his one shot.
 
Wilder lost but man is he a monster. This was more like him than that second fight and I knew it. It’s just Fury is the better boxer and also tough as hell and huuuuge. I loved this fight.

Wilder just got tired early, I wouldn’t say dominant, the whole fight you never knew who was going to win.

Hell of fight! Wilder showed a lot of heart but lost some years from another beating. He went out on his shield, no more excuses from him just take the L. Fury is a beast and the most entertaining person in sports. Irish Travellers are some wild bastards.
 
Fury is quite the character. I cant believe how many blows Wilder took was and still getting back up. I honestly thought it wouldnt go longer than 5 or 6 rounds, impressive that it went to 11.

He got tired because his only hope was to try to finish the fight as quick as possible. He was never going out box Fury, WIlder was tired by round 3 he caught Fury for being aggressive but after the 2 knock downs Fury controlled the fight.

I can’t believe he got up from that second to last knockdown, the ear shot…and then gave some good shots

if AJ had to take those shots from either of those fighters he wouldn’t have lasted 5 rounds
 
Really entertaining.

Wilder is still completely clueless as to what he’s doing - someone would have to actively try to get hit by a Wilder jab - and he’d never beat Fury, but he’s still marketable because he just makes great theater.

He's probably done after that fight.

I don't like Wilder as a person but I feel for him. It was back and forth early but the second half of that fight was just a savage beating, Wilder was just going on heart and still could throw the hammer just off of instinct but he legit probably lost some years on his life. Fury mauled him in the second fight but it was nothing like this, he bludgeoned him tonight.
 
Great fight, glad I bought it. Wilder just needs to tip his cap to the guy that's better than him. Went out on his shield though - showed a lot of heart. Even with the knockdowns Fury never seemed like anything but in complete control of the fight.
 
It's pretty rare for a fight go almost exactly as many had predicted. Nothing was very surprising.

And yet it was more entertaining than anyone could have hoped for it to be.
 
Best heavyweight fight in years. I'm convinced Fury's head is made from steel. It doesn't seem he can get knocked out completely. Wilder is really a warrior for continuing to bang for all those rounds after tiring.

Perhaps Usyk has the best chance to defeat Fury by decision with his boxing IQ.
 
I haven't enjoyed heavyweights in a long time until that fight. Great stuff. Both of them warriors.

Fury may have the best cardio of any 6'9 280lb person on the planet. He was just relentless.

Berlanga, that guy who called out Canelo in the undercard barely looked undercard-worthy despite the win by decision. Disappointed with him as a prospect. Too bad.

Been enjoying boxing way more than MMA recently.

Highly recommend One Championship Muay Thai though!! That has been my favorite recently. Rodtang is a beast.

I don’t like him either, but he’s definitely not done.

They can make a ton of money throwing him in against Joshua in London, so I imagine that happens at some point. If Joshua was smart, he’d make that fight and avoid Usyk who will beat him again and entirely remove him from relevance.

He'll fight again, he'll probably fight well into his 40's but I think he's probably done as a great fighter. Fury beat him down mentally and then took years off his life.

Joshua has already taken the second fight against Usyk, it would look weak if he backed out now.

Being Puerto Rican myself i follow all PR prospects and Berlanga is overrated and not even close to the best PR prospect. Xander Zayas is far more talented and skilled. Heck, Berlanga might not even be top 5 up and comers repping the island. Berlanga lacks elite skill, speed and his power is overrated as seen in his last two fights when he stepped up the competition. I dont see him having a big future in the sport. Solid guy who still has some developing to do but his ceiling is limited.

I was impressed with the Cuban HW fighter Sanchez. I knew he would beat Ajagba although Ajagba didnt look as clueless as i thought and showed improvement but was just outclassed. Id never seen Sanchez but i knew hed be seriously skilled as usual when it comes to Cuban fighters. He is only 29 and is going to be a player at the HW. I would like to see him be a little more aggressive though when he gets his guy hurt. That lack of aggression could cost him when facing higher level competition.

Jared Anderson is the best 21 year old HW ive seen since Mike Tyson. Different fighter but skilled beyond his years. Hes ready to take over in 2 years. Rumor has it he knocked out Fury in training camp. That kid is the truth.
 
Best fight of the trilogy, I liked that Wilder actually came out with a gameplan but either as a result of carrying too much bulk, him not having the stamina to execute fighting being that active with the jab, or Fury adjusting(likely a combination of all 3) he gassed out hella quick and reverted back to how he's been fighting for the past few years. A quick KO probably would have been better for him because being that tough was too detrimental for his health, that was a beating and these last two Fury beatdowns are gonna have long term consequences. Funny that there was a dolt in that Usyk/AJ thread from a few weeks ago saying Wilder was only showing up for a paycheck and was going to be running, did that look like the case last night?

Carlos Caraballo is my favorite PR prospect, bigtime opportunity coming up at the end of the month @ the MSG Theater

Oh yeah, the southpaw, slickster with some pop. You know to look at him he doesnt look like much but when the bell rings he is sharp as they come. Will be world champion some day soon.
