    I think he could stick around and win another title if he wanted to. If Fury gets all the belts I don't think he'll be around long, and same to Usyk.

    What happened to him saying One Champion, One Face, One Name BS that he used to always go on about,

    Oh right, since the realization has now set in that it wasn't to be him, So i guess it's time to go,
    though just a few days ago he was saying he still has more goals left to achieve, so this like most things he says is probably nothing.

    Usyk is better than anybody Wilder has beaten.

    I don`t think fights v Ruiz or Whyte would do good PPV neither fighter is a big name and Wilder needs a big name in the other corner for anyone to care.

    Fury hardly took his soul in the first fight.

    Probably makes sense. He's aging, took some bad beatings these last two fights, hes constantly getting injured in fights, and he has already secured generational wealth for his family (if handled properly).

    For excitement reasons I'd love to see him fight AJ and Usyk... but I think it's understandable if he doesn't.

    Wilder turned a lot of people into fans from his last fight, it’s a shame he’s gonna retire now. I get it though. However he didn’t say 100% yet so we’ll see.

    Damn. He should carry on for another 5-6 years at least. There's still lots of top heavyweights that I would enjoy seeing fight him.

    If his heart isn't fully in it anymore, it's not a bad option. He accomplished a hell of a lot for starting boxing late and has a lot to be proud of. That said, he's still a huge threat because of his power, but he's also likely more susceptible than ever to being hurt and taken out after the two brutal beatings Fury administered.

    Wilder should fight Wallin. Fury struggled with him. If Wilder can wipe him out it's good optics.

    Wilder doesnt even need to train just turn up and do his magic trick, easy night.

    Fury is a beast and an animal. everyone else will feel like a breeze. They will all fear his power even more now.

    You should listen to the many people who are already condemning you wishing brain damage on someone.
    The first critique must have hit a nerve-especially that this makes you LIKE Wilder is.
    It is basic psychology that such an intense, hateful reaction tends to come from people who are trying to deny & loathe their own problems with anger & malice.

    Also you were not called any names-this verbal abuse from a safe anonymous distance is not honorable & will likely get yo banned if you continue.

    Be unlike the vast majority of anger management junkies & trolls.
    Admit wrong, apologize if you are Big Enough-but either way, move on & stop being driven by malevolence.

    Yes people who have really fought are rarely like this.
    If you did not like Wilder saying he wanted a body on his record, do not be like that.
    Especially if unlike Wilder you really want to see someone broken & damaged for life.
