    Wilder's only future is getting his glass jaw exposed by the first live body he faces.

    The rest of them.....maybe.

    Fury and Andy Ruiz are the only ones who MAY pick up a strap in the near future.

    Wilder has refused to fight anyone even nearly ranked. Wilder appears to be planning on somebody giving his a title without his fighting for it, such as the #3 WBC ranking he got without fighting anyone ranked at all..........

    Dychko might turn pro eventually but I don't think Medhzidov will, plus with what happened to his cousin, i'm not sure his family will encourage him to do so either. A damn shame though.

    Whomever, gets the title once the Klitschko era is over, I hope some excitement gets brought back into the ring. I wouldn't hold my breath though, seeing some of the names on the lists above.

    Usyk schooled him once and will do it again if they ever fight again.

    Mike Perez is the future. He is the one who will retire Wladimir.

    Too many false dawns to believe that now. He really needs to be more active and actually commit himself to boxing before he can considered a contender

    Arreola or Stiverne probably have the best chance of becoming champs in the next couple years. They have power, chin and can volume punch.

    I've watched that fight a couple of times. I think Medzhidov against less agile and confident fighters than Usyk would be a different proposition.

    I'm looking forward to Usyk stepping up in cruiser. But he probably will wait for the post Wlad era to go up to HW.

    Thanks to the members who post in the European section for pointing out Usyk's amateur exploits some time ago. I learn a lot of good info from that section here.
