Tyson Fury’s trainer, Sugar Hill Steward shared his thoughts on Deontay Wilder’s “big right hand” approach. He highlighted that Wilder gave it his all in those two sharp right cross punches.
However, he argued that Tyson Fury was able to sustain Wilder’s best efforts, control, and dominate the rest of the fight.
“The first two rounds, I was watching Deontay Wilder landing a big right hand in the first round, then also landing a big right hand in the second round, an even bigger right hand.
“After those two right hands, Tyson Fury stayed focused on controlling and dominating the fight,” said Sugar Hill Steward, Tyson Fury’s trainer.
Tyson Fury cannot look past Deontay Wilder
It took Deontay Wilder two fights to realize that Tyson Fury knew ways around his ‘big right hand’ approach. After his first career loss against ‘The Gypsy King’ last year, Wilder went off the grid for a while. Most assumed he was avoiding the media to duck questions regarding his loss. However, the truth is far from that.
On the night of his loss on February 22, 2020, the first thing he did was lay off Mark Breland. The very same night, he contacted his confidante, friend, former opponent, and coach Malik Scott. He asked him to come on board right away.
