    If it's by any kind of climactic revenge-knockout (ala Louis/Schmeling), people might start seeing Wilder as the best heavyweight since Klitschko.

    And will want yet another rematch.

    I think Wilder can do it. He's the only heavy I'm interested in, anyway, He should listen to Foreman.

    Wilder's stock would rise, as would the value of Fury's win over him.

    Fury's currency would take a bit of a hit, but it would start to look like a strong era.

    There's no further clauses that I'm aware of.

    Wilder v AJ would be the logical outcome. Can't see Wilder wanting any more of Fury regardless of one victory.

    Knowing Wilder’s ego if he wins the third fight he’ll definitely give Fury a fourth fight if he can’t land the Joshua fight afterwards.

    He won 2 rounds out of 19 rounds. That is beyond the real of possibility. It's not even conceivable at this point.

    Wilder will move to immediately make the AJ fight. No way he would further risk the mega payday against any opponent and his mandatory Dillian Whyte. Haymon will not take any more chances against anyone else.

    All it takes is one punch and he almost did it in the first fight.
    Fury doesn't have a titanium chin like McCall and he is not always in good shape.

    Wilder won nine of 19 rounds on the official cards. They both scored two knockdowns.

    How you scored it doesn't matter.

    If Wilder wins the third Fury fight, he'll fight Joshua (if he beats Pulev) or Whyte, as mandated.

    At his worst shape, Wilder planted him twice and Fury got up and was stronger. In the second fight, in far better shape and with a point to prove, he took no damage. I'd say the one punch theory has come and gone. Against some fighters, one shot from Wilder may be all it takes, Fury has shown one shot won't totally disconnect him, I think at this point he deserves the benefit of the doubt.

    Many posters would have to re-evaluate everything that they think that they know about boxing.
