    Luis was never ducked by all. That piece of revisionist history needs to be expelled. And I say that as a big fan of Ortiz at the time. I wanted him in bigger fights.

    A boxing brain at 50% is how greats lose unexpectedly. Usyk isn't some superhuman god incapable of losing if ill prepared.

    The Dosser categorically doesn't deserve a shot at The King but, that being said, he categorically deserves another ass whooping and Usyk deserves a soft touch and another huge payday at 39 y/o after a career of taking on the best B2B on a deck stacked against him and exemplary conduct in and out of the ring and I, for one, will never grow tired of watching The Dosser take a biblical shellacking

    I'd much rather see Usyk fight someone else but he's always wanted to slap The Dosser up and his name on his CV and it's just a pit stop and then it will be back to business and if not he can vacate the belts and just fight the big money fights

    The Dosser is tight with Turki and so is Jared Anderson so I suspect he might have something to do with this also

    How many soft touches or softer touches did all the other HW champs have, let alone at 39 y/o? Exactly

    The funny thing is, the “king” Wilder’s best win was against an ancient Cuban who had done little to nothing in his career, pro or amateur. What further heightens the irony is Usyk ducked Wardley (as Fabio’s…celebrity is not large enough for the Ukrainian diva), but Wardley actually has a better win on his resumé than the “king” Wilder has after practically 50 fights.

    in fact, I would bet good money that, unless he gets caught, Huni easily outboxes plodding Stiverne or a past-it Arreola.

    Who else did Wilder have on his resumé? oh yes, a couple of mediocre American football players and a chinny Polish football hooligan who could move a bit. OH! But, to be fair to the king, he did have a generous draw against Fury, who was binging on cocaine and cheap, substandard kebab-shop pizzas prior to the fight and had not had a proper fight for three years.

    "3 kings" was a load of rubbish.
    A load of hype.
    .... and why isn't Andy Ruiz included as a "king" then?

    AJ and Ruiz is 1-1
    Fury and Wilder is 2-0-1
    In that very timeframe.
    Ruiz got a convincing TKO win, and wasn't KO'd in the rematch.
    (......... you could even throw in Parker who is 1-0 with Ruiz, and 0-1 with AJ in that very timeframe too - but leave that for now).
    Wilder's best was drawing with Fury, and most people thought he didn't even deserve that.

    Wilder never showed himself to be a "king".

    Ruiz or Parker right now would actually be better choices, based on expected or current form, AND based on what they did in that era (5-10 years ago).

    Deontay Wilder is about equal with Dillian Whyte right now, as a choice for Usyk's next fight.

    They might sell a lot of PPV's on that 5% chance.
