Re: If Only 1 Heavyweight Fight Occurred, which one would...
If I'm being honest, I'd watch Wilder/Stiverne before all the rest. It may actually wind up being the least important, but I can't help but find it intriguing to see what happens when Wilder faces some opposition, assuming he does.
Wlad may well be remembered by far as the most successful fighter of all of the ones you mentioned, but I get about as excited for one of his fights as I do for Seinfeld reruns.
I mean sure, I'll watch it if it's on, but if I miss it, I'm not kicking myself over it. I still haven't watched Wlad-Povetkin, and according to about 99.999% of people I've heard/seen talk about it, I probably never should.

Out of those.... Stiverne/Wilder.... so we can finally put to rest the fraud.
The other ones, I feel no real heat from or have much interest in.
The only world class caliber fight in there is Klitschko vs Pulev, and Pulev's more than earned his shot.

From most to least interesting imho.
B) Wilder vs. Stiverne
A) Wlad vs. Pulev
C) Fury vs. Chisora 2
D) Povetkin vs. Takam
I think whoever wins B makes the fight with the winner of A or aka Wlad more interesting. Povetkin is gonna be irrelevant for awhile if not for the rest of his career @ this point unless you're a Povetkin fan. Tyson should beat Dereck & he'll be the next interesting guy in line for Wlad or the guy who beats Wlad (personally I'm not gonna be all that surprised if Wlad loses @ any point til he hangs them up despite my inability to pick against him thus far).

Kubrat has been the #1 guy for awhile so I can understand it. I'm just of the thinking Wlad vs Kubrat won't be as interesting as I'd like it to be. I tend to think the guy who's gonna make things interesting for Wlad will be a guy who can punch as outboxing Wlad will be a much bigger challenge than touching Wlad's chin & Kubrat has 11 KO's in 20 fights & Deontay & Bermane have a combined 53 KO's in 58 fights & the winner of Deontay vs Bermane is virtually guaranteed a shot in 2015.lefty wrote:Wlad vs Pulev for me which I know a lot of people will be scratching their heads at lol
Re: If Only 1 Heavyweight Fight Occurred, which one would...
Wlad vs Wilder is the most intriguing one to me which is odd because we dont know how good Wilder is. However his power combined with his height and length which would be an issue for Wlad aswell as the fact he's an athletic guy makes it a fascinating one I think. Providing he can get past Stiverne of course.ReggieDiggs wrote:Kubrat has been the #1 guy for awhile so I can understand it.

Wilder vs Stiverne is hands down the most intriguing.
