    Say what you want about the limited one dimensional Wilder but he can proudly say he floored Fury 4 times in their 3 bouts.

    Whyte in comparison not only looked sloppy but completely unathletic, out of shape and out of his depth and in the end was dancing drunk. Hope Wilder laughs loud at Dylian getting knocked out on his ass

    It's going to be hard to find anyone who thinks the answer is Whyte.

    Wilder by a country mile.. Whyte was always very limited.

    Wilder, he has the height and speed - simple as that.

    Wilder by far but that don't put him in the same class as Fury.
    Whyte is maybe Chisora or Stiverne level.
    Joshua (lacks confidence & chinny) Usyk not enough power at HW to hold Fury off.
    Fury is the best HW right now.

    This is a false equivelence. Wilder is nearly the same height as Fury so it's completely different.
    Whyte was complete garbage tonight but that doesn't suddenly make Wilder a lot better. Fury was the first live pulse he fought and lost twice possibly three times.

    Wilder's stock went up tonight I think. Showed he's a level above Whyte/Chisora/Parker.

    Whyte fought a full strength Fury who had a proper camp

    The Bronze Dosser fought a 40% inactive muscle atrophied drug-ravaged shell of Fury in Baptism I

    A 60% distracted and emotionally frazzled Fury in Baptism III who spent weeks of his camp kipping on a hospital floor because his newborn was gravely ill

    The only time The Bronze Dosser fought an even close to full strength Fury was Baptism II and he didn't win a single second of the fight and the look of sheer terror in his eyes when facing a match-fit Fury was a joy to behold

    And Fury fought the Bronze Dosser in said dosser's backyard x III

    Not over in the majestic isle of Great Britain

    Big difference

    Is this a joke? Whyte did absolutely nothing to Fury, nothing.

    It's something I noticed in this fight Fury was clear eyed and looked focussed before the first bell. he was similar in the second Wilder fight but in third fight he literally looked hungover like he'd been on the beers the night before. He looked miles better tomight than he did in the last fight. At least he took Whyte as a threat. Whyte was useless what were his boots mafe out of? toffee because his foot speed wouldn't have troubled my Nanna and she's got two dodgy hips.

    Wilder by far. He may have one trick, but he had TONS of heart.
