Looked great. Looks like the best current HW to me.

My God! You’re totally right about him looking great, referring to his body composition. He no longer has those love handles and side fat, he looked like he got in much, much better shape. He actually gained 12 lbs since his Wilder weighin weight. And those 12 lbs of muscle really appears to have increased his punching power, his jabs seemed to have a significantly harder impact. I was totally sure the fight was going to be completely one sided, and it was, but he put on a show. When he dodged like 4-5 punches in a row with crazy head movement, then just went off on him and dropped him to one knee, wow that was amazing. He’s got one more “easy” opponent, then it’s onto the Wilder rematch. I wonder what the money line is going to be for that fight.

In the UK sports books, Fury is a slight favorite. In the US sports books, Wilder is a slight favorite. If Fury stays upright, he could run away with it. Wilder is not in the same league as far as boxing skill set. Wilder's got a punch and that's all but that might be enough.
