Wilder should drop everything and rematch Fury ASAP.

"Wilder's camp must at all cost rematch Fury as soon as possible to leverage on that traumatic almost knock the **** out moment", do not wait until Fury regains his old untouchable groove back. The more it takes time, the more Fury gets in better shape, better mind set, better sharpness through endless sparring sessions and tune ups. Pretty soon he's going to be really back to 100%. In this fight, what Fury camp did was more like a fat loss camp, they are more concern on getting Tyson to proper weight in a safest manner as possible. The 3-year absence, binging of coke, alcohol and ballooning up to 400 lbs contributed to Fury's lost of 10% of sharpness/focus/concentration that a regularly fighting gladiator will usually have, that's why he got caught at the end and not earlier because he wasn't able to sustain proper focus/concentration for dipping and sliding for the whole 12 rounds. If wilder give him enough time, he will regain it all back and it's a big problem, it will be almost impossible to catch Fury clean ever again if he gets back at that Klitchko fighting level again.

Immediate rematches are rare these days, especially for big fights. Best case scenario would be what, next May?

I honestly doubt Fury takes a rematch. He already admitted that he doesn't know how on God's green earth he got up from the knockdown. He wont take that chance again. I don't think you really understand Fury, his strongest asset is his self belief, it's bordering on psychotic. I think he'll feel he made some tactical blunders otherwise he damn near shut Wilder out. I think once he's had a break and gets back in the gym he'll be trash talking the **** out of Wilder, and everyone else in the division, don't mistake his good sportsmanship for weakness. Once he's back in fight mode you're going to see the same Fury, sharp with his tongue and even sharper in the ring.

Wilder should fight Fury next as it's the honorable thing to do but it makes more sense cashing in on the Joshua fight since he can't beat Fury. Whatever happens vs. Joshua, the Fury re-match will always be there.

This is the fight that should happen next and I believe it will happen next. It was a very good fight that attracted the casuals. A lot of those that streamed it will purchase the PPV the next time around. They are talking about March or April, but I say do it in May. Go a week after Cinco De Mayo or even end of May. Canelo isn't fighting on PPV anymore anyways so put one on in May. The build up for the rematch is going to be great.

I honestly doubt Fury takes a rematch. He already admitted that he doesn't know how on God's green earth he got up from the knockdown. He wont take that chance again. You think he didn't already understand Wilder had great power? The man chased Wlad for years and then took a fight with Wilder after fighting two bums after huge layoff and obesity and still not back to his best. Don't ever think Fury is afraid of any fight. It's not in his makeup.

Fury will be in better shape in rematch & most likely wins it. Especially if it happens in UK.

Wilder Camp in now saying rematch should happen ASAP. Must have read my post. :beerchug: He beats fury he goes to the tough negotiation with AJ in a fresh positive leverage. Not now when 99% thinks he's a loser.

I'm sure they want Joshua at this point. So does Fury I'm sure. As great as that fight was, AJ is still the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
