Fury will knock Usyk out and become undisputed, after that the belts get scattered and the division goes boring again.
where does the heavy weight division go from here?

I hope Fury comes back and fights Usyk. Wilder and Joshua should fight each other.
Fury, Joshua, Usyk and Wilder won`t be around 3 years from now.
Than the new era comes, with the new guys like Dubois, Jared Anderson..Last edited by JakeTheBoxer; 08-21-2022, 03:37 AM.Comment

whoever unifies the division will retire as undisputed champion. Then belts will be open for mandatory prospects with the likes of Jarred Anderson, Filip Hrgovic, Joe Joyce, DDD, and Frank Sanchez on the line. If Jalolov is fast tracked, he can be a candidate for title fights as well. AJ might still be around as he is still 35 in 3 years time, maybe Wilder too if he managed to rebuild his career - aside from Fury trilogy not much of wear and tear so maybe he still has something.Comment

Correct. Wilder and Joshua have lost to two unbeaten, seemingly great fighters. You can definitely still make a case for that fight if they both go and win in good fashion beforehand.
Once the best all start fighting the best the division declines. We've had Fury v Wilder and Whyte, Joshua v Usyk, Parker is fighting Joyce, Ortiz fighting Ruiz. They're all top 10 which means half those fighters will be written off - and the interest will fall out of the division.
If Fury retires, then Usyk's got no-one to fight. If Wilder loses then he'll be completely written off. And no-one in the top 10 can capture the imagination without a breakthrough win against one of the biggest names.
It will take a new generation of fighters before the division is relevant in the public's eyes again.
Despite the frustration of not getting an Undisputed champion, we've actually been pretty lucky of late.Comment

Nothing Fury says is a sign of anything.
Usyk made a strong statement though.Comment

fury Usyk for everything and then a new cycle begins with Sanchez probably leading the way.
