    David Price
    Izu Ugonoh
    Joseph Parker (not for the full camp)
    Joe Joyce

    Thoughts?

    The only one that would stand any chance is Parker, Price is easy to hity and has no chin at all, don`t even know who Ugonoh is, and Joyce is wide open and would miss most of his shots because unlike Wilder doesn`t set shots up with the jab, Parker is a lot better than these other three fighters.

    And he won’t do much good in preparing Fury for windmill either.
    He’d probably do better by fighting some drunk basketball players in a bar.


    On a serious note, he only needs to be on the level physicaly to get the job done so doing good against this lot should be a good indicator of his condition.

    Parker used the jab well against AJ and Wilder uses the jab well to set up his right, Parker is also quick like Wilder.

    True, just not as tall so angles he’ll come in from will be different. Again, not that there is someone who can replicate Wilders fighting style anyway.

    He needs to spar:

    A guy tall like him with reasonable ability and athleticism
    An explosive guy/fast guy like Parker/Povetkin

    Igunoh is good choice the way he fought Breazeale

    Not sure he will learn much from Joyce...

    According to the sparring stories Pricey should be undisputed and undefeated HW world champion...

    Any source for these? I know Joe Joyce is one but I've not seen any mention of Price, Ugonoh or Parker anywhere other than this post
