Fury is a weirdo, Wilder literally accused him of cheating for like a year and still refuses to give him any credit yet he loves Wilder for some reason

I mean he's battered the man twice so whats the point of slagging him he's just taking the high road with it I guess

Did you see lennox Lewis constantly talking up how amazing Holyfield was after beating him?

It's very strange, I think part of it is for some weird reason fury can't handle that Wilder just doesn't like him.

Fury has to say that Wilder is second best because his record is almost entirely comprised of Wilder fights. The only other opponents of note are Klitschko in 2015, Derek Chisora in 2014, and of course Dillian Whyte. He hasn't fought Usyk, Joshua, Ruiz, Parker, who are the other top ranked active fighters. Eye test suggests he probably beats most of them, but his resume just isn't there with heavyweight greats, so his ego requires him to talk up the one top 10 fighter he's actually beaten.

Fury ain't vacating. He's just playing angles for more money in the undisputed fight after Usyk vs Joshua II.

Agree, but I also wouldn’t be surprised if he does vacate. Holding titles is cool and all, but prize fighters are starting to realize they’re spending way too much on sanctioning fees. Fury is already recognizable name, with or without a title so the belt brings very lil to the negotiating table.

his resume is terrible. why would he be 2nd best? whyte's resume is much better but hes overrated lol. this is a prime example of people falling for hype and making things up in their minds.

Who would you rate above wilder for the 2nd spot in this era?

[VislorTurlough]

Usyk #2. Wilder #3. Fluid situation

[WBC WBA IBF]

Wilder vs who?

Frankie Sanchez

Frankie Sanchez

that who the other fighter I was thinking or Parker and Joyce ?I hear Parker is facing Joe Joyce tho but wilder dont deserve title shot after being knocked out twice by fury

Luis ortiz vs Andy ruiz winner faces Parker vs Joyce winner faces each other for WBC title ?

did you say that BEFORE the Fury fight? look at the 94 thousand idiots that went to the fight. half thought whyte would win and the other half figured it would be a war with each guy going down. so why would any body go thru the trouble of going to a fight if they thought Fury would annihilate whyte? that is how many ****** people in great chitain

I swear someone should take whytes boxing license i mean instantly.The guy is that terrible.......get that man's boxing license away from him.
