    Imagine a naked Dillian Whyte is holding you hostage, pacing around the room sweating profusely shouting and demanding you pick one

    Femi vs Usyk is a much more interesting fight than Hairy Tits vs Headphones.

    Obviously Usyk-Joshua is far more interesting.

    Usyk Joshua is more interesting....... as we haven't seen them in the ring against each other yet. Plus there are question marks over Usyk at HW.

    Fury v Wilder will be the better and more entertaining fight

    Joshua/Usyk is the far more intriguing match up for me.

    We get to see if Usyk can really handle an elite super heavyweight and we get to see if Joshua has addressed his issues with movers, I think this will be Joshua toughest test since Wlad, not including the shocker that was Ruiz Jr of course.

    Fury/Wilder for me is a foregone conclusion already. They've fought twice and both times Fury dominated apart from 2 knock downs. It's a pointless rematch that is only being held to fulfill contractual obligations, we already know who the better fighter is.

    I'm expecting more fireworks in the fury fight. Hopefully it'll be a brawl with some exciting knockdowns. I have a feeling the joshua fight will be more technical and go to the scorecards, which i always find a bit less exciting to watch.

    But regardless, i think both fights will be good, and it'll be nice to have them within a few weeks of each other.

    Usyk - Joshua because of that big question mark there.
    But let's be honest, there's no bigger fight than Fury Wilder 3 right now.

    Usyk vs Joshua. Fury vs Wilder is like that old TV show on syndication that you've watched every episode of 10 times and can't stand the site of anymore.

    I'll watch them both if possible, but naked Whyte has me rattled! That scenario has effed with my mind and I've voted for Fury v Wilder III. ( panic impairs higher brain functions ) I feel like anything can happen in the Fury v Wilder fight, either man can ko the other. Win or lose, Wilder fights always have fireworks, but AJ will just be chasing a very mobile Usyk who will never sit down on a punch and will only be fighting a spoiler type fight the whole time, happy to go the distance, with a decision win being a bonus. With 2 fights at heavy in 2 years, Usyk's campaign at heavy still feels like a stunt to me. Also out of the 4 fighters it would be more entertaining for me to see either Wilder or Fury get ko'd than AJ or Usyk.

    Only a Fury nutsack licker like the Thread Starter would vote for Fury-Wilder III.
    The Usyk-AJ bout is more intriguing for several reasons. Is Usyk the real deal? Style matchup positively predicts a very good fight.

    Only thing we don't know about the other fight is whether or not Wilder has an Oliver McCall type mental breakdown before, during or after the encounter.

    Joshua-Usyk is the more interesting fight and it's not even close...
    Lots more questions to be answered, two highly capable fighters and we haven't seen it before.

    Fury-Wilder III shouldn't even be happening... I made it obvious that Wilder was nowhere near Fury's level even when he wasn't fit, II showed that the aforementioned summary is far too generous to Wilder - this is a clear mismatch between a skilled, adaptable fighter and a massively overhyped habitual ducker with far less ability than mouth.
    Not paying to see that again, no way.
