    Naturally.

    The mystery will be over by then (if it happens).

    How much money are you putting on that result, Herol?

    AJ beats Fury - There's a good chance of this result.
    Fury beats Wilder - There's a small chance of a Fury win.
    Wilder beats AJ - I'll reserve making a speculation, until tomorrow night's proceedings are complete.

    I tend put results in books, as they come in.

    Wise.

    Especially, when either man is capable of a KO.

    I know what 'ever' means and I didn't specify HWs.

    Look at the Szpilka KO to see what he brings to the table.

    It had everything to do with what Fury was doing. Show me a previous Wlad tracking down and stopping a fluid circular zig -zag mover like Fury?
    No? Didn't think so.

    He could barely land a clean glove on David Haye and apparently that Wlad was the career best ever version of Wlad.

    If Wlad was shot you would have seen him losing to the Pulevs and Pianetas , but fact is tonights Wlad would still beat all those guys.Fury Wlad was coming off wins against the #1 and #2 HW contenders of the world. What shot fighter ever beat #1 and #2 ranked guys of his division back to back????????
    For a so called boxing guru you had Wlad in prime form going into the Fury fight in what was another routine defence.. So if he as gone , why did you not see it?

    And most were saying the same thing about Spinks.....he did not deserve top ten ranking either.

    Perry,

    Do you think there are currently ten Heavyweights (eleven, if you include a Ring Champion), who should collectively displace Joshua from the Ring's Top-10 Ratings?

    If so, who are the ten or eleven names you would have in there?
