    No way Fury goes back to US to get robbed again.

    No way Wilder goes to UK without We Be Crooks insurance.

    With Fury goung back to UK to 'rest over xmas' (talk to Hearn), which one of these guys will we see in April?
    Joshua vs Wilder? Or Joshua vs Fury?

    Can’t be wilder his stock just plummeted. Everyone was skeptical of him already especially across the pond now they are convinced. Fury is the much bigger fight. And historically more significant

    Wilder will now be forced to go through Whyte/Povetkin/Usyk etc.

    And he should.

    Wilder drops down to 4th spot tonight in the Top 10.


    Whyte v Wilder for Number 1 contender.
    Joshua v Fury for Undisputed.
    Usyk v Ortiz just so that Cuban can be exposed as a complete fraud.

    I have always assumed it's Whyte than Usyk in 2019 for AJ.

    His stock has only plummeted in the eyes of his haters. It was a good fight and Dw proved to be an extremely dangerous hw who can end a fight with a punch and he nearly did so tonight in the last round which was pretty impressive. Sure he's not the best boxer in the world but he's good enough to deliver his power and you have to respect it or pay the price.

    Hearn will want Wilder, there's money to be made and he can still shill that belt Wilder holds like it means something.

    Fury is the much riskier fight and I'd have him favorite over Joshua. He established himself as the clear #1 in the division tonight as well as his status as the lineal champ. Joshua still has the Fury fight in waiting if he gets passed Wilder. He still makes alot fighting Wilder so they'll fight him first as the less risky sellable fight.

    You forgot Cojanu :lol:. Hes getting paid big money for easy fights to protect Wilders reputation. Hes old and not what he once was, dont expect him him to be in any big fight unless its a retirement payday. I think anyone in the top 10 puts Ortiz away these days.

    I sorta think Wilder would be an easier fight for AJ now even with the chance he get tagged..

    AJ also having power is going to keep Wilder more honest than he was against Fury..

    AJ probs won't fight either but Fury will make him far more money than Wilder IMO given it would be a barn burner in the UK..

    I've said for a while he's just being hyped as some bogeyman to hype Wilder up.

    I've seen American Wilder fans come out with stuff like "Whyte needs to fight Ortiz before he fights Wilder".

    I mean, unless i'm mistaken, Ortiz got a shot for beating Jennings.....

    Whyte has just beaten two Top 10 guys in Parker/Chisora.




    After tonight, I want to see Wilder fight away from home, like Fury just did.

    I'm hoping Wilder realises he'll probably lose the rematch to Fury and so goes for broke and risks the Joshua fight in April. Whoever he fights next between Fury or Joshua likely beat him but at least he gets a better payday vs Joshua.
