    Fury vs Usyk for THE unified, undefeated, HW champion.


    This would be a historic, mega-fight for ALL thr titles, AND the winner would not only be the unified HW undisputed champion, but undefeated, as well .


    I can’t think of how long it’s been since we’ve seen that…. Late 80s Tyson, maybe?

    Hopefully Wilder doesn't KO Fury.
    Wilder Usyk is not bad as well.

    That would be a monumental accomplishment for Usyk if he were to pull it off. Let’s say Fury beats wilder easily and AJ avoids the rematch. Think about the size differences alone:

    6’9” 270 reach 85”
    6’3” 220 reach 78”

    Could also end up with a unified HW title fight between two guys weighing 220lb each. Like the 70s all over again.

    Imagine the punch stats. Usyk landed: 121
    Wilder landed:1
    Wilder win by KO 8
    It’s theoretically possible

    I think the undisputed fight is gone now. The only way it was happening was Joshua winning yesterday and Fury winning in a fortnight. Rematches, mandatories and politics stops an undisputed fight from happening imo.

    Even if Usyk wins the rematch next summer, Joyce will be asking for his shot.
