Whoever wins tonight can probably claim to have a better CV than AJ, but they've both had twice as many fights. Wilder's record especially after 40 odd fights is shameful.
IT seems that way, Wilder has had about 4 fights pull out to drug test failures though.  Glad that this one is on

Bit harsh like, clearly he’s suffered with mental health issues?

He certainly was, so the best 2 names on AJ's CV were 39 and 41 at the time. 

I guess everybody knows this era hasn't been the best, that's why tonights showdown is a bit special IMO

So one should brush off the fact that he is disgustingly homophobic and sexist with no desire from himself or the people around him to resolve the issue.

The best name on Wilder's CV is older than both of them put together though ;D

Problem with 4am fights is I'm never sure when to time the order for a kebab.

No idea who'll win this one which makes it interesting enough to me. Will go for Fury jabbing and hugging Wilder to a split decision.

If you're looking to be his mate then no you shouldn't. Otherwise it doesn't bother me at all. Hope he wins and then goes on to put the AJ hype train down.

I hope Wilder wins because I don't like Furys views at all and have no respect for that kind of thing. What I can respect is that mental health is no joke and that he seems not to have done all of the posturing many fighters seem to do, the fight seems to have been agreed pretty quickly which is good to see. I hate all the talks that become nothing agreed then both sides blaming one another and rinse, repeat.

Don't know if this has been answered but is there a boxing equivalent to the football highlight websites that doesn't show the result? Don't think I'll be able to stay awake to watch it live.

Jarrett Hurd v Jason Welborn. Expect Hurd to get rid of him easy.

And Luis Ortiz v Travis Kauffman, again should be a blowout.

Joe Joyce is a good British prospect also fighting tonight.

They both come across as utterly horrible human beings, Fury with his shitty views on the world, Wilder wanting to kill someone in the ring etc.

That being said, Fury is a Man Utd supporter so i'm hoping the bellend from the states knocks out the bellend from the UK.

Can't take to Fury just think he smells for some (irrational) reason.

Not a fan of Wilder either but if he shuts the fat mouth of the self styled gypsy king that will do

Having said all that I can't be arsed staying up until 4am to watch this shite, even on a dodgy stream!
