Fantasy WBSS--The Heavyweights

If there was a fantasy WBSS at Heavyweight between the top 8 fighters as rated by The Ring, how would it play out. Using The Ring rankings the seeded fighters would be:

1- Anthony Joshua
2- Deontay Wilder
3- Luis Ortiz
4- Dillian Whyte

The Unseeded fighters are:
Alexander Povetkin
Joseph Parker
Tyson Fury
Dominic Breazeale

Don't forget in WBSS format the Joshua picks his opponent first, then Wilder, then Ortiz then Whyte is left with whoever hasn't been picked.

The winner of the AJ fight goes against the winner of the Ortiz fight in the semi's and the winner of the Wilder fights goes against the winner of the Whyte fight before the winners of both fights meet.

How does this fight play out? Who picks who, who wins overall?

 

For me:

THE DRAW:
Joshua picks Fury. he's already beaten the other 3, this would be the most profitable fight and Joshua will believe Fury isn't ready for him after being on the lash for 2 and a half years.

Wilder picks Breazeale because he worse than Povetkin & Parker.

My hunch is Ortiz would pick Parker as opposed to fellow drug cheat Povetkin.

Whyte is left with Povetkin.

Quarter Finals:

Joshua stops Fury because while Fury MAY be ready for Wilder, he's certainly not ready for Joshua.

Parker stops old man Ortiz when he gasses out.

Wilder manages to get off the floor to stop Breazeale

Povetkin wins a hard fought decisions over Whyte

Semis::

Joshua beats Parker again, this time stopping him.

Povetkin obliterates Wilder within 3 rounds

Final:

Joshua beats Povetkin, a little quicker than he did last month.

Winner: Anthony Joshua

 

From what I've seen, if there is anything that will cause mass triggering is Usyk himself being beaten by Bellew

 

But who do you think each fighter would draw. Joshua could well just draw Breazeale, for a guaranteed victory in a rematch nobody wants but I think he'd be confident of beating Fury in a fight people do want.

Personally also think if AJ did draw Breazeale, whoever Wilder draws he's out first round

 

But how do you predict the tournament plays out? If AJ feels Fury is as big a threat as you do, then he has a choice of 3 guys he's already proven he can beat

P. S. I'm talking here about current version of Fury that's going into the Wilder fight, not Fury from the Wlad fight

 

No, it's like the WBSS.

Four seeded fighters who pick from the unseeded. Explained in the OP

 

Have you never seen a WBSS draw?

For example, in the Super Middle one, Groves was top seed picked Cox, Smith was 2nd seed picked Skolund, Eubank (or his dad) picked Yildrim & Brahmer was left with Brant

 

How is it unfair to pick the smallest. You can still pick who you deem the worst opponent to be regardless of weight class.

And look at this example. You could pick Povetkin or Parker because they are smaller than Breazeale but it's certainly not an easier fight
