    After last night's fight Parker has much more to learn before we consider him a lion.. But he's the youngest and is still getting better. He could do with a change in trainer.

    AJ is the most promising HW. But Fury will give all these guys a hard time.. Fury doesn't get his due credit.. He may very well best them all. But he's let his own career go to waste.

    A competition like the 'Super Six' would be good for the top six in the HW division given the suspense surrounding our three undefeated champions and the other three prominent figures. In no particular order, the six man elimination comp where they fight 3 rounds of 3 minutes. IMO would be; Parker, Joshua, Wilder, Ortiz, T.Fury and Wlad.

    You should see him now, he's huge!! Stomach wise. I seen this clip of him and Billy Joe Saunders running through this pool of water and he looks a lot different than when he fought Wlad.

    While he's promised to be back a few times before, this time I think he's for real.

    Joshua would beat them all, esp. Wilder...................however, the rematch with Klitschko will be a 50/50 fight...............

    super sixes are impossible these days but man, that'd be the most exciting tournament in history, hands down

    No network would risk it, too many fighters there could scupper things.

    Wilder of course would never agree and if he did may look to back out at some stage.

    Fury would be a huge risk, no idea if he will come back and even if he did the Fury's track record for pulling out of fights in 3/3 recently.

    Ortiz as well is a bit of a wild card he's had 3 promoters in the last year, pulled out of the Ustinov fight.

    Even Wlad is so injury prone atm it's more likely than not he'd take 2 attempts for every fight to get in the ring fit and healthy.

    Yes this time he does seem serious, his daily updates on his training shows he's actually training regularly now. The way he's been talking recently in interviews it's less bull**** more determination and drive in his voice. He says it will take him 10 weeks to get into decent shape, I think he's being optimistic but he's heading in the right direction.

    I think the best thing for Fury was Joshua beating Wlad. If Wlad had won, he could still claim to be the man but Joshua's victory has people doubting that and that has driven Fury, I believe.

    Wilder would want zero part of a super six.

    He wants to fight Stevern and then Bellow. While he keeps calling all the top guys out.

    Everyone on this forum that dare support him for his fight choices should be tarred and feathered.

    Tarred and feathered I say!!!!!!!

    Unless he fights AJ accepting that he is the B side because after 38 god damn fights he still hasn't fought the top guys!!!

    ****ing stick legged, Pluto balled mofo with his stick legs poking every bodies eyes out!!! Freakin disgrace!!!! Lmao

    It's difficult to count fury until we know he is making a sustained comback, he might change his mind next week? Wilder is a fake with massive holes in his defence and technique and Parker is a level below. I think AJ slayed his most dangerous competitor for a while, unless there is a rematch where you have to give wald a chance. I really am surprised people rate the other heavyweights so highly.
