I don't think that they'd want Joshua in against a drug cheat.
I find listening to the drunken casual fans chanting that White Stripes song to be very painful. Possibly worse than people chanting the 'winter wonderland' song.

Duhaupas would be a good next opponent.
Teper isn't frightening at all. Duhaupas would be a fun fight though, good call!

Don't act like you saw something I didn't. I know Boxing. I'm a die hard fan and have watched it for a long time. Nothing Fury did in that ring should've kept Wlad from fighting. There were times when Fury was wide open, hands down, begging to be hit, and Wlad just stood there staring at him.
He didn't even try.
You clearly don't.
Plenty of fighters have stood in front of their opponents with their hands down, doesn't mean that they're begging to be hit and that anything thrown at them will actually land, someone that knows boxing should understand that.
Fury ain't Pernell Whitaker. Wlad definitely could've hit him if he'd bothered to throw a punch.
He threw punches, landed some decent shots too, but he lost to a man that was just too good for him on the night, Fury's gameplan was spot on and he executed it perfectly. Short of completely changing the way he's fought for the last decade and been incredibly successful with it, there was very little Klitschko could have done that night to win the fight. He relies on controlling distance and working off the jab, Fury's feints and footwork kept him guessing and took both of those away from him.

The love he was getting in the arena tonight was pretty crazy. No denying he's a cross-over star now.
16 fights and that popular already? Mental. He will earn an absolute fortune

It's not pedantic.
Fury is not a light hitter for his size at all.
Name a bigger hitter that is his size or bigger.
Are you being deliberately dense? A fighters punching power, especially at heavyweight tends to be pretty relative to his weight. You don't get to see many heavyweights in the low 230's that are hitting as hard as Klitschko, Joshua and even Price despite his flaws.

Name a harder hitter than Fury who is bigger than him.

There's not many Heavyweights that are bigger than Fury at all. Outside of Nicolay Valuev or Primo Carnera he's the largest Heavyweight titleholder ever

Don't be so rude if you can't back up your words.
So you want me to name a fighter 6'9 or over who hits harder than Fury when there's very few that are bigger and the ones that are, are utter turd?

Price is one inch shorter, but hits harder. Fury ain't a knockout artist Horse.

Once you get to a certain size fighters tend to hit less hard rather than more hard.
Simply being taller doesn't mean that a fighter should be hitting harder than a fighter that is shorter than them.

I wasnt talking about him being purely bigger in terms of height. I was talking about weight which is pretty important when it comes to punching power.
