    There is no fear in Wilder of any heavy weight out there. Fury knew that Wilder's boxing technique was lacking and he felt that with his size and his skills that he could box Wilder out of his title. He was almost right but he underestimated the brutal power that he would be subjected to and the fight in Wilder. He don't want anymore of that. Wilder is not stiff like Klitschko and is capable of making the right adjustments. Fury knows this and fears this. That is why he signed with the biggest procrastinator in boxing ( Arum ) and started a bum run. Fury's heart pumps koolaid. AJ got heart but after that Saturday night slaughter, his heart fluttered. Can't get mad at Ortiz though, he a glutton for punishment.

    Nope, Wilder only fought Fury because he was vulnerable, and coming back from suicidal thoughts, depression, obesity, and drug problems. Yet he still beat that bum 10 rounds to 2, and even those rounds where he was knocked down in he outboxed that windmilling Hype job easily.

    I think his team would have avoided fury, I honestly think wilder himself isn’t the guilty party here. He seems easily lead type of guy.

    Depends on how Fury looked during those 3 years. If he had stayed lean, beating everyone convincingly no, I doubt he would of made the fight, he would of talked about fighting Fury but his team would of steered him clear of Fury putting PBC's interests over Wilder's as we are seeing know.

    If Fury had become overweight and under performed and looked vulnerable he would of risked it but only if it had been in the US.

    I’m going to say no. Not because Wilder is scared, but the truth is that he has been very carefully managed. His two tough opponents still came with serious baggage, and one of them with an inflated reputation (Ortiz).

    Fury had been in a constant training camp for close to a year... he was in very good condition. which getting up in the 12th round highlighted. That version of Fury is still a better heavyweight than any of Joshua opponents.

    Yes he would but Fury did not want a rematch with Wilder. Don't forget the facts.

    Furys going to be unbeatable for the next couple of years IMO... Wilder got him at his most vulnerable.. He is in immense shape now both physically & mentally now. I can't believe a man of his frame moves the way he does.. He's a freak!

    The only reason why the fight was made is because Warren and Fury devised a plan to trick team Wilder into believing Fury wasn't ready for Wilder and did it with a phone call which is why Finkel didn't want anything to do with Joshua for April 13th date at Wembley, bc that was plan.

    Would he have fought Fury being active and in 2018 ? It's highly unlikely but one never knows with Fury choice of opponents ? Wilder likes advantages going into fights , Fury would have to look bad or be a mandatory for him to take the fight .

    Wilder wanted the rematch bc it's the only PPV option where he could get away avoiding Joshua .

    That was a cherry pick gone wrong situation. Except they fixed it by robbing Fury.
