    If I were Fury I would avoid the Wilder rematch right now. Let Wilder fight Joshua and see what both have for him in that fight, then sign the fight. Wilder right now might have the advantage. I say why give it to him. Joshua wants to fight him, and in my mind Fury is holding back. Wilder might regret waiting for Fury and losing a Joshua fight.

    Fury fought Wlad in Germany (ie. the guy Donkey wanted no part of after getting sparked by him x 2 in sparring) and he fought Donkey in the US when he wasn't even 51% of what he was prior to the inactivity, depression, drug, alcohol, and junk food abuse.

    I think Holyfield speaks clearer than he has in the past

    Fury will answer that question for you, has anybody heard from him on the rematch yet?

    If Fury doesn't go for rematch , it won't look good on his behalf avoiding da REMATCH . Same for Wilder they both still have something to Prove . Really no one did Win ...

    Holyfield is still a better speaker than Wilder.

    Wilder is the dumbest pro athlete in the world bar none.

    He can't put 2 correct sentences together.

    Fury didn't get beat up or anything, he took a shot and recovered well and fought back the very same round.

    Wilder doesn't dish out prolonged beatings because he can't hit abyone very often due to his poor boxing's skills. And when he does, because of his power he sparks them

    Larry Holmes being KD'd , (most claim) is the hardest punching heavy weight of all time, in Ernie Shavers in 1979, TKO'd him, and fought until 2002. 4th - 6th greatest heavyweight of all time. That should dim the lights on this Fury post...

    Fury got leveled by Wilder's best shot and arose like Lazarus when Jesus
    called to him and dominated the rest of round 12 vs. Wilder. Fury wasn't
    even in great shape for this fight. Fury probably stops Wilder if they
    fight again.
