Comments Thread For: Fury: I Want Wilder To Fight For Vacant WBC Title, He's Second-Best Heavyweight

[Mike con]

I'd like to see a rocky lll scenario where Fury and sugar Hill train Wilder how to box,he can fight like hell,he just can't box very well.

[WBC WBA IBF]

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

In the WBC ratings, Wilder is #1 and Frankie Sanchez is #4.

Joyce and Parker are 2 and 3, but they're about to fight for the interim WBO title and will be removed from the WBC ratings.

So if Fury vacates, Wilder and Sanchez would meet for the vacant title.

Someone had a thread saying that wilder is the 2nd best heavyweight of this era. I actually agree. When all is said and done wilder maybe the 2nd best of this era. And the 3 fights between fury and wilder were the best this era had to give. But usyk could show us something just that I doubt he will be champ for any decent amount of time before being outweighed and clipped. also......whyte/Joshua all overrated to tard levels. Wilder of all people may go down as the 2nd guy of this era. Whyte shouldn't even be in the top 100 of this era.

Usyk and A.J are the best fighting the best . Wilder defeated the same guy twice to pad his record Ortiz and so on . Fury took advantage of Wilder but claiming he’s the second best isn’t plausible unless Wilder defeated either A.J or Usyk .

Usyk is the only other heavyweight that I would assume will beat Wilder. AJ is robotic and has no chin, easy KO. Whyte stinks and has no head movement, easy KO for Wilder, Joe Joyce's head might just be thick enough to trade punches with Wilder and take him out. It will be interesting to see if blocking punches with his face will work vs Parker if Parker will actually throw some combinations.

All the hate that Wilder has gotten for his delusional excuses is warranted, but writing him off as a complete bum that never deserved to fight Fury in the first place has been proven completely false after Whyte failed to have a single moment of real success vs Fury and got knocked out cold by 1 punch. He even threw some wild punches that arguably were worse than Wilder's windmill punches LOL. Fury had to beat Wilder half to death before he could KO him, even while fighting far more aggressively than he did vs Whyte.

If AJ loses to Usyk then I think Wilder vs AJ makes the most sense. Either way I think Wilder seeing how dominant Fury was vs Whyte increases the chances that he will fight again.

Usyk could get blasted out by wilder. Whyte might rough him up and beat him too the way chisora did. If AJ tries to box usyk again he gonna get smoked again. He has to employ his size lean on him and wear him down. Joyce beats AJ handily at this stage in their careers as does Dubois and wilder

How confident are you in wilders chin after being dropped 5 times in his last 2 fights and ko'd clean in his last one.

[bullydean]

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.

I'm sorry but Ruiz and Parker? Ruiz showed he got lucky based off his last fights and the fact his next fight will only be 10 rounds shows how garbage he is.
Parker went 12 rounds with Whyte, Chisora, and Andy. Ain't no way he'll be trouble for Fury.

The only guy left is Usyk/AJ. If AJ loses again there's no reason for Fury to fight him. Robotic boxer who is only decent as a brawler.
If Usyk loses it just further supports the fact that he's too small. If he gets battered by AJ then Fury would probably bust him up worse.

So really the only person left is the winner of AJ/Usyk.
However there's also a problem with them. AJ has shown he's a terrible boxer. If Fury decided not to fight him if he beats Usyk I don't think anyone would care. Usyk seems tired and done due to the war and he's not getting any younger.

Wilder still has a chin. He got beat into submission by Fury. He was never knocked out cold/clean. Roy Jones is the perfect example of a shot chin. After Tarver knocked Jones cold, his body fell in love with the KO. That's not the case with Wilder. He can't box, but he still has a chin....and a punchers chance. He can ko just about everyone he steps in the ring with - to include Usyk..... And except Fury. Fury is right.

At this point in a weird way I kind of want him to get the belt back and make another 10 defences against random bums with maybe a 4th and 5th Ortiz fight and a third Stiverne fight just for the comedy factor.
