    Hughie vs Wilder; Tyson is a much better fighter as of now, but Wlad is just too good.

    And let's not forget. Wilder has no chin. NONE

    That's very very harsh. Wilder might have whobbled by Molina but so was Arreola who has a good chin. And he took a couple of left hooks from Stiverne too. I'd say he's Close to Wlad as chin goes.

    IM with the consensus here that while Hughie is a NO LESS than 70/30 underdog, even if he won, he'd be looking at a Potvetkin fight or being forced to vacate.

    But, he could sidestep the mandate and look for a Chagaev fight.

    Now, Chaggy is cagey and finds those tall boys chins early....but I'd see it as a 50/50 fight.

    Maybe he could then cashin early with his two title for a 50/50 split with Wlad and hope to give the fans something to consider him a great for like Vitali did vs Lennox.
    It'd lead to a helluva pay run for Hughie, earning more than $7-$10 mil for 3 fights.

    Losing to Wlad at 21/22 would hurt him in the slightest.

    let's see Hughie has a 0.001% chance and Tyson has a 0.0001% chance, i guess that big bum Hughie has a better shot, and this is coming from a tyson fan.

    According to the bookies it's Tyson but I cannot see him getting anywhere near Wlad. I can envisage Hughie sparking out Wilder though, may even have a little tickle at 6/1 for the win.
