DURABILITY
Wilder
The irony of Wilder’s punching prowess is that he is a relatively svelte heavyweight. His opponents typically outweigh him by at least 20 pounds. Not that it matters much. And his chin? He answered those concerns when he withstood Ortiz’s best shots midway through their first meeting. Wilder looked like he was out on his feet, but he recuperated and went on to separate the Cuban from his senses late.
Fury
That Fury was able to get up from two Wilder knockdowns speaks volumes. After all, only Bermane Stiverne had gone the distance with Wilder, and he was later knocked out cold in the rematch. But Fury was also briefly hurt by Wallin. Not to mention he was also knocked down by a career cruiserweight in Steve Cunningham, albeit that was back in 2013. Still, it makes you wonder.
Edge: Wilder
