The RedCafe Boxing Thread

I think it was after the first fight he stopped talking as much and started turning up in his headphones etc. I think he's scared and can't go at it verbally because he knows Fury can get in his head.

So he's always been a colorful character and has been drifting away from that ? Interesting. Maybe it means nothing but well, we will see tomorrow.

In general, I like the format of boxing press conferences better than the MMA one. It really allows the individual characters to shine.

He used to talk a lot more, he once said he wanted to kill somebody in the ring, or something along those lines. There's a stark difference in his conduct leading into these Fury fights after the first.
 
Looking forward to see how Fury does, both will be eager to finish this trilogy in a clear victory.

Fury has been talking a good game about preparation and I'd favour him to win but a heavier Wilder may just get his chance now in 3 fights. Fury's latest comments could inspire a man to go for broke and land one or play into Fury's hands after trying.
 
Disappointed Fury looks like he has not taken this seriously at all.

Hopefully it won't cost him but I won't be putting any money on him
 
Does anyone know if you can watch events like this via Rivers and if so where is the best place to look? A PM message would be greatly appreciated if there are any regular watchers.
 
What gives you that impression?


Pretending he had COVID and coming in heavier than ever suggest he had not been giving this everything.

I think he is the best today but making yourself bigger and slower against a puncher like Wilder is a dangerous move to me

I don't know the full story but I very much doubt he faked Covid. He only actually missed a month of training and certainly doesn't look particularly overweight heading into this. I have just watched a 15-minute pre-match interview and Fury seems laser focused to me. Says he's basically been in training camps the entire year and has zero excuses not to perform. Make no mistake though Wider is a dangerous opponent and can quite easily win if he lands that big right hand but it's clear by now that Fury is a far better boxer.

My big question is after the ridiculous tie decision in the first match, will Fury know in the back of his mind that he has to get a knockdown of his own to really cement this final victory and how does that impact the result? My final prediction, Fury to school Wilder again just as he did in the second and bring home a points victory.
 
Everything points to a Fury win since he's shown he's objectively the better boxer, but somehow I feel this will go terribly wrong very early in the fight.
 
Expecting Fury to just walk him down, lean on him to tire him, pick him apart. The blueprint is there with Wilder, keep him on the back foot. The only person that beats Fury really is Fury himself, if he's done his prep and is focused then he's got this comfortably. I think he suffered the big knock down in the first fight because he got carried away and thought it was too easy. He shouldn't make that mistake again.
 
Can any one suggest any rivers for later at all please? Expecting a Fury win late on but you can’t rule out a wilder sucker punch!! Enjoy everyone
 
Going to try to stay up for this. I’ll regret it tomorrow when it ultimately is the same fight as the last one
 
Anyone have a rough idea of what time the main event will be in the ring?
 
It will probably be a cracker now but I’m not paying just for one fight, however much it’s killing me.


£25 is a crazy figure to be fair. I kind of gave up on ppv once it went to £20 and happy with the IPTV even if it is maybe 30 seconds behind.

I payed for the last one but too steep to buy this one as well.

Yeah IPTV is good if you have the right provider. Especially for the boxing.

I have the same feeling, which is why I've had a small wager on Wilder to win between rounds 1 & 6 @13/2. Hopefully Fury smashes him to bits though.
 
I'm usually very good with helping folk find water courses. Now it's time to give back, I'm looking for a spoiler free way to observe an event, but in the morning. Pre-recorded if you will. What's a reliable source for this? Please PM if you have one.
