    No way. Wilder ducked Joshua when Joshua was undefeated champ with 3 belts. What makes you think Wilder would fight Joshua in non title fight?

          I know Wilder had 1 round where he dropped fury twice which made that fight seem less one sided but make no mistakes he got beat the eff up for like 20 straight rounds in his last two fights, and his chin got well and truly cracked.

          As well as this he's now fought an opponent who his power has not been able to bail him out against, AND live opponents are going to be less awed by his power now and come to pressure and push him back.

          As well as this, in the fury saga he's gone from being 32, to coming out the other side of it 36, is his stamina the same? His speed? Not sure on that.

          I'm not saying Wilder can't win any big fights, but it's going to be harder now, he's in the same position as AJ currently is where his intimidation factor is low and opponents are really going to feel they can beat him and will fight with confidence.
          Brilliant analysis and I believe he will retire

            Michael Benson...

            Deontay Wilder has revealed that he is considering doing Ayahuasca (a South American psychedelic brew) to go on a "spiritual journey" and help him make his decision about whether to retire from boxing now or return to the ring and continue fighting. [Byron Scott Podcast]
            WTF?

                  How about he proves he actually is a top HW.

                  He fought literally two legit fighters. Was on the verge of losing to Ortiz both times. Got outboxed and destroyed by Fury three times.

                  If he retires right now he'll always be a 'never was'.

                  Both Fury and Joshua beat the best HW of the pre 2015 - 2020 era generation, so how is Wilder the no 2?

                  I thought these losses to Fury would humble some of you Wilder fans, but I see ya'll still the same insufferable bunch you were before Wilder reality check.
                  His resume is on par with Joshua's. The ascertain that Joshua faced better fighters is mostly bunk. Wilder's got 47.5 million in the bank that suppoets this. The difference is that Wilder doesn't drop fights to non-Champions. Ever.
                  and I respect the crap outta A J. Too. Rooting for him to turn his derailed career around like Wilder did when he dropped the champion hard and repeatedly in their 3rd epic.

                    This is some next level stuff.

                    You think Wilder turned around his career by landing a punch and then getting beaten up and knocked out?

                    His resume is nowhere near Joshua's or Fury's. And of course he dropped a belt to a non-titlist. It wasn't a unification.

                    That tells me he has plenty to prove. It also tells me that it may have been beyond him when he was 30, never mind his late 30s.

                      Hope he continues. He's a funny guy to watch fight.
