The last time Tyson Fury fought for a world title, he shocked the world and he will be hoping for a repeat performance as he takes on arguably the most dangerous heavyweight on the planet in Deontay Wilder. The reigning WBC world heavyweight champion has desperately needed an opponent who could test him and lift his stock and there may be none better than Tyson Fury. Wilder's skills and resume have come under fire but following his win over Ortiz, it seems that he is beginning to put those doubts to sleep much like the men who were touched with the almost mythical power that resides in his right hand. Heavyweight glory and gold will be at stake on December 1 and whilst Fury seeks to return to the pinnacle of the division, Wilder will be hoping for another credible title defence and a step closer to his goal of heavyweight unification.
Predictions:
Fury has an awkward and almost messy style with decent footwork and a good sense of timing. He likes to leave his lead hand low and throw jabs from different angles whilst tying up his opponents on the inside. His counter right hand is his money punch. Deontay Wilder also possesses an unconventional style with a wide planted stance and both hands fairly low. His jab can be effective but it's his right hand that he looks to land and the power he carries can change a fight in a flash. Defensively he can be hit but his confidence in his own power has yet to fail him. I see Deontay Wilder winning this but Fury will cause him some problems early on due to his movement and weird style. Fury will move and use his flick jabs during the first few rounds to frustrate Wilder and he will hold when they get into close contact. Wilder will struggle to land his jab and his right hand repeatedly miss the target. Once we get past round 3, I think Wilder will begin to find his timing and range and Fury will start to get hit with straight jabs and solid body shots. Fury will spoil and make this fight ugly but Wilder will detonate that right hand at some point between round 5-8 and I think he will put Tyson Fury to sleep. Fury's lengthy absence, weight gain and vulnerable chin make this an almost 90/10 type of contest and without the power to hurt Wilder, it's only a matter of time before Wilder lands the equalising right hand.
Deontay Wilder Win Via KO Round 6

Freddie Roach is a khunt, why say this $hit in public first of all? Very rude and disrespectful, and saying he wants to be Fury's trainer and all this BS.
Roach can fack off, if Roach was Fury's trainer he;d have been knocked out in about 2 rounds, Roach is a moron

Chisora looks in tremendous shape

best shape i've ever seen him in for his whole career really is do or die. If Whyte manages to get past this Chisora too... really can't dispute him having the best resume of an any active boxer
