I know its 2 weeks away but Iam massively looking forward to this and will be watching it.The ring walk is meant to commence at 5am UK time.

My thoughts on it are Fury is the better boxer and has the speed though Wilder has the power.Wilder I think is more stable mentally though I have sympathy for Fury due to being diagnosed with Bi Polar in 2017.

My view on it is its going to be a really good fight.I think Wilder may just take the win on a possible KO late on  given Furys inactivity but I hope Fury proves me wrong ?

The size may make a difference but due to Tyson being out for such a long time I think Wilder will win by stoppage. I hope I’m wrong though coz I’d love Tyson to win, I like him, I like his character

I dont know if you saw this long interview with Joe Rogan interviewing Fury.Really interesting and I certainly warmed and respected him more after seeing the interview.

After listening to this a few weeks back I also felt that I've misjudged Fury. He's a genuine character and an excellent advocate for dealing with mental health issues. Fair play to him for going for Wilder so early into his comeback, would've expected  him to have 1 or 2 more fights first against the levels of Joseph Parker etc. But yeah, this episode provides
fascinating insight into Fury and boxing in 2018.

Generally love Joe Rogans podcast, so easy to get wrapped up in him having 2-3 hour conversations with people. The Henry Rollins episodes specifically stand out.

As it transpires Fury was dealing with other grief which started the spiral into depression as well eg him loosing his unborn child of 6 months and loosing his Uncle at more or less the same time.

What I like though about Fury is his passion not to mention he is quite funny.This came across quite strongly for me in the interview early on .

Fury spilts opinion...he manages to split my own depending on what he is upto....sometimes i think he is just a foul mouthed gypsy thug...other times i think he is funny...other times i think he is a total kn0b .....but he can definatley box alot better than i think he gets credit for, the Klitschko victory for instance and switching his stance when needed very effectively.

His size helps as its difficult to get near such a big fella so he can physically dominate without any boxing which helps at that weight...Wilder as big as he is is still short in height and reach so will have to get in closer....going to be intriuging for sure and in reality even if Fury loses he will still play a part in the future top fights in that division as the public want to see Joshua fight him.

Can't wait for this weekend.

Interesting one as both fighters haven't fought many top level opponents (Fury v WK the only one probably) and definitely haven't fought anyone like the opponent they're each facing here.

Wilder can certainly bang, but has wild or no technique to how he goes about it. And Fury is a far far better boxer than most people think - very smart, technical and knowledgeable about the sport.

Wilder was wobbled by Ortiz and Fury has been down before too.

I'm hoping Fury can win it but it really is difficult to call as neither have much on their past record that's relevant to this fight.
