    Of course he's better than Whyte.
    He's still mediocre but he's better than Whyte.

    I don't think he's better than Whyte, not by a long shot, nevermind "of course"!

    Why do you think he's better than Whyte? He's absolutely crap!

    That's right. His record against Joshua is better than Whyte's, for a start.

    He wasn't knocked out by Joshua.
    He wasn't knocked down and almost out by Parker.
    He was never sparked out.

    If not Whyte then Ruiz would be a good fight. Please don't let it be Helenius next. I still want Chisora/Helenius 2..let that be one of Del boys last fight.

    I'm not saying Fury is ducking him but he seems to of never of been interested in fighting Whyte. Just give him the money and make it happen!

    I hope you don't ever say "styles make fights", or any other such associated boxing truism. Also, Whyte was hardly close to his best when he fought Joshua, but still had him do a funny dance. Hardly any shame in that. Ruiz was about one punch away from being in serious trouble.

    He also never beat Parker - not a very strong argument. Tyson Fury was knocked down and almost out by Wilder, by we credit him for getting up to win (robbed). You can't twist it both ways.

    True, but he's also not beaten anybody besides Joshua.

    Helenius has bounced back well from the unexpected Washington defeat, he's stopped Kownacki in both of his last nights and prior to that Kownacki was seen as a prospect. That said, Helenius would be a bit of an underwhelming opponent given what Fury has done in his last two fights and with the clock ticking on his career, I don't think Fury will be boxing in two years time.

    Why not? I think he definitely will be boxing in 2 years time. He'll be boxing in 5 years time.
