    "I recently saw [Joshua] get knocked out by an old fat fella so don't come and talk to lineal champion about performing because you know he's a hit and miss performer completely."

    Tyson Fury

    haha! If Ruiz is old what does that make Fury

    Not exactly a Wilder fan but for what It’s worth, if I was to make a ranking for the current HW scene, I’d put Fury at #1.

    From the 1980s to current I think he would be just a solid contender. If he fought an older champion he could win a belt.

    I don’t see him beating Bowe, Lewis, either Klitschko, Holmes or Mike Tyson in their primes.

    I get the hunch Wilder fans seem to think the result in the first fight was a fluke which is why I’m asking their opinion on Fury

    Fury is the hardest fight for Wilder, I said that before the first fight and stand by it. Fury is a nightmare for most guys because he’s huge but fights like a small guy. Good feet, good on the inside, has a good jab, and doesn’t mind making a fight an absolute stinker if it’ll get him the “W”. Stylistic nightmare for most guys.

    Odd, there are plenty of Wilder fans here, yet none at touching this thread.

    They tend to lurk in the dark rather than flock towards the light.
