    What do we think of this one?

    I for one am not to bothered about the undisputed and would like the three Heavyweight kings fight each other.

    If this was to happen we could see Wilder AJ for undisputed at the back end of 2023

    I'm all for this if Fury v AJ happens.

    Personally I'd prefer Fury v Usyk and AJ v Wilder

    I think there no chance of Wilder getting the ring with Usyk. I'd be impressed if Wilder actually even fights Ruiz let alone get into he ring with Usyk.

    Wilder's history of being reluctant to fight top fighters in the past and fighting lesser opposition.

    Wilder won't face anyone with a pulse without a gun to his head. Nevermind Usyk.

    Would Wilder land a punch?

    Wilder might be a crappy fighter, but gained some experience which allows him to eventually survive through the rounds against top opponent. The problem is if he manages to land the right hand which is something I doubt Usyk can stand. Otherwise, he'll outpoint him for sure. But it's a doubt he'll ever want to face a top opponent ever, as he was afraid of doing in the past - yes, he met Fury, but he wasn't aware of how good he really is and expected him to be sh*it after those two years of alcohol, drugs and extreme eating.

    Usyk hasn't been troubled yet.

    Nobody is mentioning that Wilder had THREE FIGHTS to KO Tyson and he never. That must of rattled his confidence.

    Let Usyk rest, Have AJ/Fury, and Wilder/Ruiz.

    I dont see how Usyk is claiming fury is ducking him - Fury offered Usyk the fight in december and Usyk said no

    In a way he has been, but credit for that - he survived. But when it comes to heavyweight, he fought nobody except Joshua who almost got him for one round in their second contest. But again - not taking that for him, Usyk survived and won.

    When it comes to Wilder being unable to knockout Fury - it seems Fury has a harder chin most of us, if not all, expected.


    In addition I'd say that right after he called Fury he went into silence and "I want to spend time with my family and recover" which is fine, but didn't mention any approximate date for a fight. He also waited the entire time Fury was calling AJ, it seems things are going to happen and now he (Usyk) claims Fury is ruining their pontential fight in 2023. Well, this a bit pathetic.

    Gassiev is a monster puncher and Usyk handled him with ease.

    Usyk by a wide UD if this happens.

    Too clever to be sucked in to that right hand.
