With the bout just around the corner whats peoples expectations of the fight and what it then means for the Heavyweight division? For me, the more time that passes and the more weight I see drop off of Fury the closer I see this bout. Sure when all weighed up Wilder should spark Fury out...but there's a niggling feeling that Fury will take Wilder to places he hasn't been inside a boxing ring and I can see it going 10 before Fury gets tired. The only solace i can see for Fury is that he frustrates Wilder to the point he's exhausted at throwing wild bombs and leaves himself open to be out boxed. Wilder in the 10th for me

Previous to this I haven't seen Wilder grow tired over twelve rounds.....well on the one occasion it happened. Points to Wilder due to Fury being too defence minded or Wilder knocks him out.....which is more probable. But I'd like to be wrong....Fury is a pathological liar but Wilder is also an arsehole.....but at least Fury is from Manchester. Edited by Stirlingsays (26 Nov 2018 12.31pm)

In betting terms Fury is much more attractive at the prices. Were it not for 2 year lay off he'd be clear favourite for this. Can't say I rate Wilder at all.

Fury can fight but can infuriate. But I still worry that his fragile mental health means boxing is not the game for him. But the boxing fan in me would relish him staying well and winning this one. We have AJ (Not not that one - he was never a heavyweight!) and other great young British fighters coming through which could lead to some domestic mega fights.

I’m looking forward to it, but wouldn’t be surprised if it was a terrible fight.

Despite Fury losing weight, I can't see how he has had enough ring time for a title fight against Wilder.

Interesting one this. Can see any result except Fury by KO Wouldn't surprise me is Wilder wins this in one or two rounds, likewise either of them winning on points also wouldn't surprise. Will be interesting to see how DW deals with someone even taller than himself. Tempted to put my hard earned on Fury points if the odds are generous enough. Great to see top heavyweights facing each other.
