    What's the motivation to drop to this level. when a wbc title shot is the alternative? Deontay must have shaken up Tyson pretty good. Expect many more of these type of fights over the next couple of years.

    Should be a nice tune-up for the next tune-up.

    When Pulev reaches age 40, maybe he’ll get another title shot

    this is who they both are and always have been. both duck every challenge that doesn't involve huge money or a title shot.

    Exactly, You can tell he cannot do this everytime out. He can only do it once a year or even once every two years.

    this is better than almost all his previous opponents. take away title shots and fury is one of the biggest cherrry picking duckers ever.

    Yep, Tyson really didn't like that shot that put him down in the 12th.

    Based on what? Miller is far more experienced

    Schwarz is dog****, Miller would KO him in 2 rounds. If Fury is being paid $20 to fight him..just wow. I thought it would be a Ruiz Jr or Arreola or Washington or Martin or Jennings or someone US fans know. Even Molina, Don't get it at all...

    Yup, the big three continue to waste their primes. It's their legacies that will pay. The division is finally competitive again but the "champions" won't fight each other.

    What's the big deal. He changed coaches, lost Ricky Hatton off his body, wasn't actually ready for the Wilder fight, even his own team didn't want it, but rolled the dice. Now he can have the tune up he should have had instead of Wilder, when he's basically in proper shape. It's not so easy to make fights with certain B guys either, it's obvious Whyte, Pulev probably won't want to risk title shots and Parker doesn't want another loss, etc. There aren't that many guys to choose from really.

    If he keeps this up then bash him, but I would actually like to see what he can do with proper preparation and momentum against AJ/Wilder instead of his usual bull**** of being inactive and going into fat camps.

    No, just no. I don't rate Miller at all, think Joshua is going to expose him badly and KO him quickly but have you actually seen Schwarz fight, he's awful, I don't think he beats Bogdan Dinu let alone Miller. He's slow, lacks real power, has no head movement and just stands in front of guys and throws. Honestly think Fury shuts him out before KOing him.
