    Mate we both agree that Wilder is awful. Doesn’t change my opinion on Whyte. Yes, the division is / was average, but he is not world class.

    Rivas and Chisora ffs :lol:

    Parker was a good fight but Povetkin had bingo’d him 6 months before and could barely walk for the rematch.

    They were 6 years apart. You could make a case for anyone being better than anyone using comparisons and triangle theories over a spell that long.

    I still heavily back Fury to beat Joshua tbh.

    Too much ring IQ, adaptability, recovery powers, and willpower imo. Think he's just a bad match up stylistically and would drag Joshua into his kind of fight.

    I do think Joshua has more chance of stopping him now than any other time though as Fury is a lot sloppier defensively these days.

    I still think Fury has the better boxing brain, and can definitely do the 12 rounds much more comfortably than AJ, but there's no denying he makes a lot of mistakes with balance etc, I mean, how many times has been on the deck throughout his career?

    Fury’s chin has been cracked to many times, this battle torn version of Fury gets knocked out early by AJ if the fight in October…
