    I'd like to know what shape Vitali is in. I think the injuries were creeping back when he retired again but possible he's capable and refreshed even at 45. Wilder shouldn't get away with years of fraud title fights, come back Vitali. :good

    Retire and do what? Become an Uber driver? He has alienated just about everyone with his boorish behavior so he can't go Hollywood and act in The Expendables 5.

    Boxing is his only talent, such as it is. If he retires he'll be in Jermaine Taylor territory in a couple years.

    If the woman troubles do not affect Vlad this time he will knock Fury out.

    Hearn said a few weeks back they were already in negotiations for AJ v Fury and in an interview yesterday Eddie said he would love to make that fight. That being said I think they will wait until next spring/summer to stage it at Wembley.

    Ortiz is likely to be the Klitschko-Fury winner mandatory. I would say that is a good fight.

    This is the first and only Dustin Nichols post that made me chuckle.
    Good job.

    He won't get in many more fights after the brutal beating he recieves in a month.

    Money Talks. A fight with Joshua would be lined up pretty quick. I would say a big fight early next year. Fury would probably have a tune-up in November.

    No. If Klitschko wins the rematch which I think he will, a third fight right after would only be fair!

    It would be fair, but I can't see it happening. I can see Wladimir retiring afterwards. He's got a few hungry young fighters coming up now, so his time is coming up big time. Time might of already caught up on him and you might see another situation where he just can't release his punches again. Personally, I think that might happen again. It's very strange a fighter can hardy throw a punch. That's not underestimating an opponent, that's age where your mind can do it, but your body just can't.

    yes i think he will be .


    after wlad if fury wins then joshua , haye, wilder , or ortiz must happen .

    n even if that doesnt happen there is still good fighters out there like parker , pulev, or ruiz

    n if he fights sum one other its kinda a bummer but there is still solid guys out there briggs, ustinov, dimintrenko , chagev or oquendo n fury is beatable so who ever hes in there with is a good fight. theres malik scott , g wash , arreola lots of good fights mostly cuz imo fury is beatable also dillian whyte

    That will be a nice matchup, Ortiz will match up nicely to either of them.
