Boxing News predicting a Wilder win on points. I fancy Fury on points myself. There's no way Wilder wins on points. He'll come out swinging and if Fury doesn't get tagged early on he'll go on to school him. I just hope he doesn't get too cocky later on and walk on to one as Wilder certainly has power. Wilder's boxing technique is bordering on non-existent.

I think it's his mental strength that carries him through, agree with a lot of what you've said but I don't think he's technically much good - it's his grit that lets him see out fights. Don't know much about his mental health Honestly? Honestly. Look at Mayweather, they're different animals - Mayweather is as technically good as they come. Fury relies on size and overgrapples. More accurately with mass - look to Mike Tyson, he just had it up there in the locker even if he was brash and a little rough around the edges, He'd just pull out 5 or 6 punches and you'd think; wow this guy is frightening... (Fury wouldn't match up to most historical title holders I.e MTyson.)

Weigh in done we have a fight. Here’s my take and it’s very rarely im wrong if ever....
Fury is absolutely in over his head. Mega deep water. The lad isn’t ready for this yet. I can see him getting hurt bad inside 4 rounds.
However.... I want to be proven wrong... please Tyson do it!! As a huge boxing fan and a lover of the sport please let’s see one of the greatest comebacks ever seen. Box this twats ears off ....
Come on Tyson your an inspiration. A winner, never mind this talk of already won.. let’s see you pick that belt up. COME ON

Been a Fury fan since his ITV days and I will be whatever happens in his career. He'll be up on all the cards until Wilder catches him, then unfortunately it's game over. There's not a heavyweight on the planet that can take Wilder's power. It may sound stupid but the best thing you can do would be to jump on him from the first bell and hope you can catch him cause he can be hurt as he has been previously by a few opponents and even dropped in the amateurs. What ever happens I hope both come out of the fight with there health intact.

Obviously the Mayweather comparison doesn't work because of the weight variations. It's like saying Mayweather can't punch in comparison to Wilder. In terms of Fury's technical ability. There is no heavyweight on the planet that comes close to Fury's technical ability and agility and I'm not sure there ever has been.

That’s not disrespecting fury he’s the best technically out there at the moment if he can still perform like he did against Klitschko. Wilder has power but he’s not as impressive knockout artist as Tyson was in his prime. The three at the top at the moment Joshua wilder and fury are a good mix at the top and there is a good bunch just below. Best the heavyweight division has been since the end of Lewis’s era.

He sounded a bit too philosophical to me, as if he wasn't overly bothered if he lost? I want him to win, but it didn't sound good to me. I don't think Wilder is any great shakes, but he's at least fired up and you get the feeling he isn't even considering defeat.

To me, he only seems bothered about winning this fight and he could pack it all in again.

It's time for my usual I-know-fuck-all-about-boxing-but-it's-a-big-fight-so-I'm-going-to-share-my-opinion post. Fury will jab Wilder's face off for 12 rounds & win easily on points. I HAVE SPOKEN!

Brave performance from Welborn, 2 low blows didn’t help him. But superb body shot from Hurd to finish it. Charlo will beat him
