    If we are talking primes I pick Wilder here, and handily. Ancestral power gives wilder an edge H2H over any heavy in history. Any of them.

    wilder has now figured out a way to land one on whatever style is put in front of him. Fury doesn’t stand a chance in February or whenever it happens

    Think you’re getting a bit carried away. He couldn’t put away a semi fit Fury and his best win is someone who is ancient and living off what he did as an amateur rather than pro.

    Yes, he has power but he’s beaten no one of note really.

    I’d welcome Wlad back if he has anything left. I’d back him to smash pulev again and beat Whyte. He’d still beat most of the top 10 imo. Assuming he’s still somewhere near how good he was when he was beating AJ.

    I might be in the minority but I would be very happy to see Wlad return and fight Wilder. I still think Wilder would look to avoid it though.

    It's a completely lose lose situation for him though.

    For Wilder?

    I agree in general. Could be his easiest chance of a real moneyspinner though.

    A few months ago Andy Ruiz Jnr was the Terminator.

    Wilder is beatable, Ortiz showed us the blueprint and had the Fury fight been judged properly we wouldn't even be discussing if he's beatable or not.

    A tremendous athlete that has a unique attribute that has literally snatched victory from defeat, but he's far from unbeatable, he's just fought the right opponents and had the right judges when it got a little hairy.

    I dont think anybody think he is unbeatable but these I think these current crop of heavies excluding fury just don't have the movement required and eventually Wilder will tag them.

    Granted Wilder can be tagged also but I think people are more worried about what is coming back.

    True. One thing I will say though, when Fury got back up in the 12th and took it to him Wilder backed up, there are ways of dealing with him, you just have to risk it.

    That was one of those crazy boxing moments. Wilder landed a big left striaght after too and Fury ate it up.

    As a few have said in here before people like Joshuas best chance will be taking the fight to Wilder. Wilder can be beat and can be knocked out but his right hand is a huge fear factor.

    Joshuas best chance is to get building a 122x122ft saudi sanctioned ring and hope his gastank lasts for 36 minutes of high speed back foot running

    Haha, mate, come on, it's pretty f**king clear, you said that Joshua needs a giant ring to run around in!
