Wilder is clearly the number 1 HW in the world and has been since he won his title. Gypsy Drug Cheat Fury lost his claim to the lineal title after beating Robot Wlad when he popped dirty and retired. When he was retired the two best heavyweights in the world needed to fight each other for a new lineage. Deontay was clearly the number 1 HW in March 2018, when he fought Luis Ortiz. Ortiz was clearly the number 2 HW in the world at the time. Wilder KO’d Ortiz and so is the new and current lineal champion!!!! It’s undeniable!
Tyson Fury retires and thus releases his claim to the lineal championship He didn’t beat Wilder when he came out of retirement and his only wins since retirement have been over an unknown Schwarz, Seferi, and journeyman Pianeta Wilder has time and time again proved the he is the number 1 HW champion of the world including when he knocked out the drug cheating shithouse
Wlad was a robotic bum who was shot by the time Fury beat him. Wilder stepped up and beat Ortiz who Wlad and Joshua both Ducked. He KOed Fury and Left Breazeale In A&E when Joshua made him look like a prime Oliver McCall Wlad was also ducking Arreola and Stiverne Wilder beat both and Stiverne twice. If he’s not the best there is no number 1
'the twitching freak' Tyson Fury is still the best heavyweight, which goes to show the standard of heavyweight boxing right now
"A boxer who tests positive for Performance Enhancing Drugs - for the fight in which he wins the Lineal Championship - leading to the official verdict being nullified, will not be recognised as Lineal Champion." Fury didn't get tested positive for the fight against Wlad, otherwise it would have been a no contest. Also Wilder was never #1 and Ortiz was never #2. Face the facts dumb dumb: Wilder has never beaten anyone of note so he cannot be the lineal champion. Fury has.
Well .... actually Fury did test positive before the fight he won against Wlad. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2...weight-champion-baffled-drugs-test-nandrolone By the time that result came out, the IBF had already stripped Fury, awarded the belt to Charles Martin and Martin had lost it 90 days later to Joshua. And the IBF wasn't going to strip Joshua. And there was no "LINEAL organization" that was going to strip Fury of his LINEAL designation. Instead of fighting the test result. testing the B-sample and getting banned for two years, Tyson just said he was suffering from depression, let his license lapse, didn't fight the result, gave up his belts and sat out the time he'd have been banned anyway without having to have the "punishment" go down officially on his record. That way, Fury avoided the OFFICIAL two-year ban and could "sell" the story he was "mentally ill" ... when all he did was get drunk and high, eat , enjoy himself and spend the millions he made for the Wlad fight for a couple years. And the British fans lapped it up. Also, now, if Fury tests positive again in another fight, it'll be his first "ban" and not his second - which is what Whyte is facing. The second ban is like eight years. As far as Wlad goes, the IBF couldn't retroactively give the belt back to Klitschko because two men had already held it. So the IBF and the WBA decidedly together let Wlad fight for the vacant WBA belt and Joshua's IBF belt, probably to avoid a lawsuit by Wlad.
I think 35yo wlad vs wilder would go the way wlad vs pulev went. I hate that fake clown Fury and I’d like to see wilder KO him , but Wilder is lucky fury is featherfisted, because if fury had power wilder would have been knocked out in 4 rounds.
