    I'm tired all these Wilder fans crying everyday, that there guy isn't getting a fair shake on all their super fan channels.

    Wilder has lost so many fans, it seems only those extremely loyal super fans still want that Trilogy over an Undisputed Unification.

    What is the best scenario or direction that could possibly play out?

    Only dim bulbs want to see "the trilogy."

    Move on and fight Joshua. Ignore Dent-ay.

    Would I rather watch the #1 and #2 top rated heavyweights on boxrec fight in a trilogy ...

    Or would I rather watch the #1 heavyweight on boxrec fight the #37 heavyweight Kabayel (because Fury isn't fighting Joshua next, he sent an offer to Kabayel).

    I'd rather watch Wilder and Fury fight again.

    Just like I'd rather watch the top two on boxrec in EVERY division fight each other instead of seeing the #1 against the #37.

    Only "dimbulbs" would prefer #1 vs. #37 over a #1 vs. #2 matchup.

    Fight Joshua is the only answer, the last thing we need is seeing wilder get more brain damage than he already has

    Fury should fight Joshua, if he wins the rubber match with Wilder.

    The poll is flawed. Wilder is trying to block the Kabayel fight. Not the Joshua fight.

    The thread starter knows that.

    Yes, and simple answer to OP...

    Fury should ignore Wilder.

    Fury should hire Mark Breland as an assistant just to **** with Wilders mind.. then maybe beat the **** out of him Breland as trainer so Breland can get some revenge after those ludicrous claims he made

    No one one wants to see the trilogy fight over an AJ unification fight or a possible fight with the over half dozen HWs better than Wilder.

    Not sure how it's a rubber match, Fury has clearly beaten Wilder twice, regardless of the judges decision in the first fight. Fury should move on and fight Joshua.

    I hope Wilder is frozen out after his recent behaviour. He is a laughing stock right now.

    Move on, Wilder had his opportunity and time to trigger the rematch clause, he didn't do it.

    That's it, it's over, nothing more to be done.

    Can you imagine if after Ruiz, Hearn didn't bother triggering the rematch clause for MONTHS and then it expires and then AJ came out complaining that the rematch clause had expired and he was now "owed".

    Plus Wilder is a serious headache now, can you imagine trying to do a deal with this moron? Let's say Fury said "OK, let's do it"

    Well, does Fury get a say on the referee? Because according to Wilder the last was corrupt, does Fury get a say on judges? The location? Actually doe Fury get a say on anything?

    Because Wilder is accusing nearly everybody involved in the second fight of a huge conspiracy.


    Also splits, the contract has expired, is Wilder worth the same now? Is Wilder going to accept a pandemic might hurt his purse?

    Nope, he'll do what he does, he will say "They don't want the fight, so they are lowballing me" and use that as another excuse not to fight Fury, just to pretend he really really did want the fight but he is somehow being robbed again.

    It's a long long long way back for Wilder, he isn't mandatory, he will need to pay good opponents good money because he can't lure them with a shot at the WBC belt and where is that's coming from?

    Wilder will now be frozen out, he won't get given a thing, he took a gamble, a huge gamble and lost and instead of accepting it, triggering the contracted rematch and getting on with it, he played games, made outrageous accusations and has burnt bridges all over the world.

    I honestly believe he will have a fight in Alabama at some point, and that will be it, go out on a win and retire.

    Fury should just carry on as normal and fight Kabayel. Wilder's continued mad rants to get attention is all he has left right now. This threat to take legal action against Fury should be taken with as much credence as his other recent wild claims until we actually see a lawsuit filed.

    Fact is his demand it happen on Dec 19 when his own network pulled that date due to conflicts with other events of FOX and ESPN. So any claim from it can even happen on that date is pure fantasy on his part.

    Even if Wilder does file a lawsuit, I doubt he'll win, the contract has expired, you'd think Showtime would of started legal proceedings if they had a case at all or perhaps Showtime know the fight is a loss maker for them and so are just allowing this fight to fall by the wayside.

    He should get on bended knee and kiss his gypsy father's feet and beg him for a shot at redemption, another payday and another inevitable deeply painful and humiliating biblical shellacking.

    Fury should unify with AJ and let Wilder continue to melt into a puddle of irrelevance.

    Frankly Wilder is doing more damage to himself with his insane rants than anybody else. He's become a laughingstock and nobody with an IQ of more than 70 believes any of it. There's also no question of what would happen in a third fight - Wilder is damaged goods mentally and he'd probably break down in the corner blubbering after the first round with Fury.

    Fury needs to get on with his career and there are some good fights still to be made.

    He's beaten Wilder twice and a third whooping is not going to enhance his resume.

    No point fighting Wilder now. Without Covid it might've been good for August/Sept but too much time has past and Wilder's rants haven't helped.

    Get Kabayel or whoever done then move onto Joshua in 2021. Wilder has missed his shot.
