    I'm currently a member in a few different forums and one thread topic that really sparks interest for me is an unpopular opinion thread...

    I'll go first...

    I think Fury has the potential to knock Wilder out in their rematch but I don't contribute that to Fury's power, I contribute it to Fury wearing and tiring out Wilder and we all know Wilder likes to put a lot of energy in them swings so Wilder has the potential to be his own downfall as well as Fury's contributions. We caught a glimpse of that in round 12 after Fury got up.

    A loss on your record is no big deal

    I don't recall Wilder ever appearing tired.

    Rewatch the 12th Round... Maybe I'm wrong but I did see signs of fatigue imo

    GGG vs Canelo 1 was rightfully called a draw.

    I don't either.

    I thought Wilder beat Fury by three points.

    I also don't think Evander Holyfield ever beat Riddick Bowe.

    The one who's going to be knocked out in the rematch is Fury not Wilder IMO. Did you watch Fury's last fight? He could not anything to hurt his opponent who's a lot smaller than him.

    AJ winning his belts back is bad for boxing

    Because it would've taken away AJ's unrealistic bargaining if he lost and I'd assume that he'd take fights that are risky but at the same time fights that can repair his status. I'd rather Ruiz fighting Usyk or Pulev, since they'd be more competitive, instead of AJ beating both convincingly. It just feels like 2020 for the heavyweights is going to be quiet (barring Wilder & Fury) and we're back to square 1 on unification

    That's a different take. I'm not entirely thrilled with Joshua in general (his quitting on Ruiz haunts me...not something an Ali, Holmes, or Holyfield would have ever done). But looking forward to Wilder finally knocking out Fury ;)
