    Is say it will be Wardley, as Warren has said they are in negotiations.

    Some other possibilities:
    Fury- big money
    Joshua- big money
    Chisora- friends, and somewhat big money
    Kabayal- other mando
    Wilder- it was talked about relatively recently
    Itauma- they said no, but if he is looking for the money fights...
    WladKlit- they said no, but if he is looking for the money fights...
    Periera- his name was mentioned a few months ago
    Other (Hrgovic, Parker, Ejagba, JakePaul... please explain)

    I am not putting Paul as a major option because they explicitly said that would be an MMA fight, but if you believe that it will be a boxing match, just vote "other " and explain.

    What say you all?

    Probably Wardley.

    If Kabayel had beaten even a fringe contender like Hrgovic in the mean time rather than fight a journeyman a year after his last fight, then Kabayel.

    Shows what a sorry state things are in when Usyk's next fight is meant to be a mandatory and half the heavyweight division are named in the poll.

    You might keep in mind that the poll was put up by a bored internet nobody who just likes to speculate baselessly about boxing.

    It'll be either Wardley in the UK or Kabayel in Germany

    Don't think Opetaia is brave enough to roll the dice and go for it at HW yet (though I'm sure Turki would be willing to bankroll that)

    Wardley should be forced to fight Kabayel Jan/Feb 2026 and the winner gets Usyk in the early summer.

    Fury should be forced to make love to me and maybe knock out the bodybuilding bum AJ next year for the bants.

    How could any logical, rational, intelligent and sexy human bieng disagree with these two statements?

    It's gonna be Wardley, in the UK, huge money, and it won't be close.
