Your top 5 opponents for Fury

[BangEM]

Wilder fans too, they have a hate for Whyte because Wilder ducked him.

They're fooling nobody though. If they thought Whyte was as easy as they say they'd want him to get an embarrassing whooping. Instead they want their fighter to look like a ducker and run from him.

They are so transparent and they’re scared Whyte would chin. Whyte already gave him concussion in sparring with John Fury watching.

Whyte is also playing the game by declaring the fat gypo as the greatest ever because he knows he’s an insecure nutter that likes to be praised.

Kronk Fury would get unravelled if he decides to get in the ring with Whyte. I hope WBC would make Whyte the mandatory next month, so he can get stripped if he ducks the fight.

They claim Whyte is a bum but don’t want Fury to fight him. But they want Fury to fight Joyce who’s slow as shiiit and would be perfect for Fury to slap around the ring. Effing transparent plonkers.

We don't have to turn every thread into this.

Fury shouldn’t be ducking his mandatory

Cool, I agree, but we're asking for your top 5 options. If you think it's just Whyte, say that and leave it there.

Why would you rather Hunter/Yoka than Whyte? Boxing reasons or personal?

Just think they pose more problems stylistically. Hunter is far better than Whyte IMO. I’m an amateur buff too so Gold Medals hold value to me, I like the idea of Fury going out vs the current Olympic Champion like Ali vs Spinks.

I just don’t see Whyte giving Fury any problems, he’s slower, less skilled, less athletic, worse technically, doesn’t even have a punchers chance; he just has nothing for Fury. At least Hunter has the speed and athleticism to potentially give him problems like Cunningham did years ago.

Fair enough, appreciate the reply.
I suppose another question could open up a can of worms, but do you think they are more deserving, or just who you want to fight Fury next?

My main issue with Whyte in terms of him deserving the fight is he’s rejected two eliminators and a direct title shot in the past, and now he’s blatantly ducked Wallin IMO.

However, you essentially deserve what you can negotiate in boxing and he’s played the system and ended up as mandatory. He’s not necessarily a bad opponent for Fury, he’s a lower end top 10 guy so it’s not like he’s a “bum of the month” type title defence, but just looking at it from a stylistic perspective I don’t see him giving any problems for Fury.

Put it this way, if Fury vs Whyte happens, I’d still watch it.

Fury-Ruiz would be ****ing funny man. It would be like watching a man beat up his son.

5? Heavyweight Division not deep enough to come up with a good top 5 who even have a chance at beating or challenging Fury

Hunter was gifted a draw against Povetkin ,the same guy that guys ridiculed Whyte for losing then knocking him out in the rematch ?

Those who say Whyte doesn’t bring much for Fury will try and have you fooled but realistically like my list shows he’s at least the number 2 guy to give Fury more problems .

I disagree with him being lower top 10, he has beaten better people than almost everyone in that top 10, but I respect your opinion, particularly your thoughts on it stylistically. You may not be wrong there, but I do want to find out
