So which heavyweight in the world is the most exciting and why?
I think Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder are up as 1 & 2 with Anthony Joshua coming up behind them.
It's great to see big heavyweights throw combinations for a change!
Like it or not, wilder is the most exciting heavyweight..
He is either knocking you out or someone is gonna seth Mitchell him... Either way, when wilder is fighting, it's cant miss
Not sure I agree.
The first fight he had against a legit top 15 guy, it was kind of boring.
Fury doesn't have to go far to get his ass beat. Anthony Joshua can save him the price of a plane ticket a knock him out on home soil
If he fights Wilder it's a short night for him. Wilder knocks him out inside 6 rounds.
Klitschko beats him too, KO inside 8
Povetkin KO's Fury inside 8
Perez another KO Rd 8 - 10
Hi Cuts... Apparently I assaulted you without good cause or something (and took a short vacation lol) I remember disagreeing bout something and arguing but I didn't realise I hooked in blindly, don't recall.
But anyway maybe I was having a period or something so no hard feelings ey :lol1:
Anyway I noticed your pretty harsh on old Fury there.
They're all top boxers you've listed so you know there's that chance Fury could prove to be the worst of the bunch.
Chances are higher though he wont be. You can't really provide any good grounds for Fury being fodder for any of these guys, he would be a hard task for any fighter.
Even Klitschko is unlikely to not have ANY problems with him although I do think Klitschko would knock him out.
At 6'9" and 260lbs and his pretty strappy arms and workmanship, it ain't gonna be easy meat my friend.
Fury has not been tested against the harder punchers yet like Klitschko, Povetkin and Wilder maybe, that's a case worth painting perhaps.
Povetkin I reckon right now but I actually selected my old mate Chris Arreola.
I have to admit he might not bounce back to top form again judging by his last showing now. I gave him promise but Weltsch and that might have been right and he could be done at the top level.
But for me overall I think Arreola has produced the most consistent rough scraps.
Not for everyone I understand but he's crowd pleased me with his aggressive style, underrated skills and killer attitude. Gracious amigo lol!!
Does anyone have a good fury highlight reel?
I don't mean KO's but to show these skills I keep hearing about.
I'm wondering if my dislike for his character colours my view on his fights unfairly.
This is some excellent analysis of the recent fight with Hammer. Page may take a while to load.

Just ignore Cunt Man lads. He knows **** all about boxing. He knows that Fury will expose both his heroes in Wilder/Joshua. I doubt either of them would win a round against him.

lighten up dude. I give major props to wilder for that win. he showed he can do more than just knock guys out early. he can box with a game plan and adapt. that said.,,,I just don't think stiverne was ever very good. he got his name off beating a guy in areeola who lost every time hes stepped up and stiverne was stopped by a journeyman and struggled mightily with another journeyman ray Austin in his previous fight with areoola one. frankly,,,stiverne is not that good dude. I think chisora is on a similar level to him. fury has some flaws but hes a very big heavyweight that can move well,,,,fight on the inside and switch to southpaw. hes cleverly awckward. I feel wilder and fury are both good fighters and evenly matched. im not hating on either guy here. I think they both got starched by wlad but have great competitive matches with each other. theyre right behind wlad and povetkin imo

Stiverne is a legit to 10 HW. A former WBC Champion. Give Wilder his credit.
Before that fight he hadn't gone more than 4 rounds. It was a step up in class but wilder rose to the challenge, showed that he was not just KO artist, showed he can go 12 rounds with top a decent HW fighter.
What has Chisora ever done? Name one decent fighter he has beat?
He has lost to every half decent fighter he has faced
Wilders win over stiverne is more significant than any fight Fury has ever had.
I believe Stiverne, Areola or Anthony Joshua would beat Fury.

hmmm,,,I guess you rate stiverne a lot more highly than I do. fury beat chisora twice and signed to fight haye only for haye to pull out on him twice. fury's resume is every bit as good as deontay's imo and I think theyre a pick em head to head matchup. I do agree that Joshua is the future tho. he seems very skilled and poised with such limited exposure. time will tell

I was very impressed by his performance vs stiverne... He showed wlad-esqe ring generalship with his size, range, movement and jab... Wilder wouldn't be suckered into an inside brawl, no matter how much pressure Stiverne put on him...
yea,,,,he did show some poise and im surprised his stamina held up so well considering his lack of late round experience. he still seems vulnerable to me defensively tho. stiverne was just too slow and sluggish to do anything about it. anyway,,,,wilder does have some skill and power and is obviously a top 5 heavyweight. I think him and fury would be a great competitive fight and im not sure who id favor in that one
yea,,,,I really like wilder. its just a shame his team isn't as confident in him as he is of himself. I think theyre going to stall the fight with wlad and fury in favor of a couple soft touches. its a shame becuz I feel deontay does truly wanna test himself against the best but his camp seems indfifferent

Wilder right now, Joshua for the future
Fury gets zero respect from me until he fights/beats someone who doesn't drive a cab

Based on their last performances, Povetkin takes it by far.
Fury needs to be matched with Stronger opponents. Hammer was an even worse joke than I expected.
nice to see an honest fury fan for gods sake. fury does have some good things going for him but opponents like hammer surely aren't going to bring them out. cant totally blame fury,,, considering he doesnt wanna risk his mandatory status. hopefully he'll get wlad soon if wilder doesn't first
Early Tyson Fury hands down.
Nowadays, probably Wilder.
