Malik Scott, Deontay Wilder's new coach (42-1-1, 41 KOs), says Tyson Fury (30-0-1, 21 KOs) is not an insurmountable opponent for his ward. Last February, "The Gypsy King" scored a convincing win over Wilder, taking the WBC heavyweight belt from him. Scott, however, claims the British boxer doesn't impress him much.
"Fury fights with his hands down, sometimes his chin is out, he gets forward and sometimes he doesn't defend himself," said the Bronze Bomber coach, listing the underdogs. - He was already lying down after punches from guys who were hitting much weaker than Deontay, he's very fragile. I've never watched a Fury fight and said: he's undefeated!"
"Fury looks great in his best performances, but still seems like he can be beaten. The current Deontay would knock out the old Deontay in two rounds. He's ten times more focused, trains a hundred times harder. This camp is full of aggression, he's got violence in his head. This is going to be the best version of Deontay Wilder you've ever seen!" - Scott is convinced and assures that, contrary to his opponent's opinion, Wilder is an intelligent and versatile boxer.
"They underestimate Wilder's boxing IQ. He's not just a right-wing fool. There's a method to this madness. Deontay's IQ is very high. I can see how resourceful he is, I can see how he can set traps for his opponent with surgical precision. Deontay will knock out Fury in five rounds!" - Malik Scott promised.
The third clash between Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury is scheduled for October 9 in Las Vegas. The British is still the favorite of the bookmakers (the odds are 1.36).
