Guts wrote: ↑19 May 2019, 06:46 He did take a risk fighting Wilder, and his comeback story was nothing short of inspiring, but why does he get a free pass fighting sub par opposition, while Josua, who possesses the superior record, is getting grief for 'treading water'

Makes no sense to me

Hes a very hard hitter no matter who hes fought hes put them all on their backside

Guts wrote: ↑19 May 2019, 08:30 That's a fair statement, calling him the hardest hitter EVER isn't.

Wilder no2
Joshua no3

Thats how i rank them.

I rate all of them to a degree, and think they can all beat one another potentially.

This make believe, ‘because Joshua has beat them it means Fury/Wilder would’ is nonsense though. Povetkin would give Wilder absolute fits. What about Whyte? Joshua beat him up but that doesn’t mean Fury or Wilder would.
Would Wilder beat Parker? Who knows. Obviously he’d start as a favourite but it’s more of a challenge than Breazeale and the likes.

Don’t get me started on Schwarz! I thought it was hilarious when the bloke doing the interview in the ring after the fight last night said ‘surely we don’t want to see the likes of Breazeale, Ruiz or whoever the hell the guy Fury is fighting anymore!’ He’s a diabolical opponent

Somehow, beating an overrated Parker, a shot to poo Browne and having a war with Chisora (but knocking him out in impressive fashion) has skewed people's perception of him. Remember Pulev beat Chisora in easier fashion aswell.

I feel like Whyte might be able to last about 6 rounds but he'd end up on his back looking up at the lights aswell.

I don't see anybody however thinking he'll win upon being given said title shot.
