    I do believe, for example I have said Fury batters AJ for a long time.

    That said, I'd pick Dave Allen over AJ.



    Wilder dropped Fury twice tonight, sure he took a beating again but he was close again.

    Based on the descriptions of this fight in the thread (haven't seen it yet), Wilder sounds like he actually made all the right decisions. He bulked up, and seemed more durable as a result. Going out on his shield also wasn't a terrible decision from a purely strategic perspective. (Although it's not great from a life management perspective.) Wilder was apparently hurting Fury late into the fight. He kept going as long as humanly possible to hit that perfect dice roll. It didn't work out, but he had a chance for as long as it lasted.

    He did better than either of the other two fights -- again, from the written descriptions. And against a better Fury than he faced in fight #1.

    Everybody is unfortunately probably right that Wilder is done and Fury isn't far behind, though. Joshua will outlast them both in this division.

    Looks like Lennox has been practising his commentating skills in the front of the mirror, seems to have gained a +10 rise in charisma.

    Can't blame him. It would have been agreed pre-fight. But those agreements are wrong.

    Great fight full of drama. Full respect to both for that, the best fight of the three. Fury is a better, stronger boxer but Wilder is always dangerous with that power. Tyson Fury is still lineal HW champ and THE man as of now.

    Whyte will be much encouraged by that fight. Fury looked well below his previous level.

    You have to expect that from the "ldbc". Respect to wilders heart but it's done!

    I didn't notice the alleged long count. Was it actually long? Borderline?

    AJ doesn't have the mental strength to fight either of these two. He would be completely destroyed by both
