This fight proved nothing. Who should Fury fight next?

    I think Fury is head and shoulders the best heavyweight out there at this point, and I did not mind him taking a soft fight. Fighting Wilder in his condition was ballsy, and after having that gauge, if he felt he needed more time to build himself back up, then he deserved it.

    But this was nothing more than a squashing of yet another Deter Roth/Sebastain Kober/Constantine Airsch/Michael Wallaisch/German domestic bum. I don't think he is fighting Wilder next, since Wilder is re-matching the ancient Cuban drug cheat with hypertension, and Fury is supposed to fight again in September. But I think it is time to test himself just a little bit.

    So who do we think he should fight and will fight next?

    He should fight a legit top 10 fighter. Pulev, Povetkin, or Parker. Not sure there are any other HWs whose last name starts with a P.

    That'll be a big fight in the UK, which should come after the Wilder rematch.

    Fight Pulev, he's a ranked guy who isn't dangerous enough to upset the apple cart.

    Pulev won't fight him until he knows if Joshua is beat again by Jr.

    Fight was meaningless. All these guys outside of Joshua have been fighting guys made to order for them with better opponents avoided. Pulev, Whyte, Povetkin, instead we get scwartz, Breazale, Molina, arreola, duhaupas, etc it’s a charade.
    Bring on Joshua vs Ruiz 2

    Wilder rematch

    If not that, then one of the following: Whyte, AJ, Ruiz Jr or Usyk.

    If not any of the above, then Joyce.

    No more bums please.

    I hope he calls out Dillian Whyte just so we can see what excuse Jillian comes up with this time.

    Its unfair to Whyte to have go thru Fury to get his titleshot against Bumsquad.
