Fury probably. Him and Usyk are more durable and have better gas tanks than the other two. But Fury is also ****ing huge both in height and weight and seems to be the physically strongest of the bunch on the inside. Fury probably has the most dog in him too when **** gets messy. -
I agree with 90% of your statement until you said Fury is strongest Wilder is way stronger than himFury probably. Him and Usyk are more durable and have better gas tanks than the other two.

Fury and his knocked knee’s? Fury can barely bend his legs. All his athleticism is in his upperbody. So I can’t envision it.Fury probably.

I’d say Usyk, his mentality is just something different, guy’s borderline crazy, he could be a beast in the octagon. Mental fortitude and amazing conditioning. Well balanced body also.
Second pick would be Joshua. Like Brock Lesnar. Even if you are shtting yourself, just tackle the other guy with your roid body and maybe you’ll win.Last edited by SplitSecond; 05-22-2023, 09:50 AM.Comment

In the actual UFC? not against UFC fighters with boxing rules a-la Floyd-McGregor?
I guess Wilder has the better chance, since he's got all that explosive power
Maybe he could land something early and end the fight quickly, before the wrestler or jiu jitsu expert in front of him inevitably takes him the ground and chokes his ass into submission
NONE of these guys could be succesful fighting in the octagon at this point
it's too late for them to start learning grappling and ground fighting, which are extremely complex to master. All of them would be toast under MMA rules. specially frail ass Usyk
unless, ofc, the MMA guys in front of them were ****** enough to keep the fight standing
but they wouldn't, all of them know the boxers are very dangerous standing, but helpless like babies on the ground, so that's were they'd take the matches, and good luck trying to defend a well done jiu jitsu shoot attempt without years of experience

Hes an explosive puncher but I dont think hes the kind of guy to have "grappling strength". I'd expect Fury to be able to put up more resistance to being manhandled in the clinch and on the ground.
It slipped my mind that Usyk would probably be fighting at 205lbs in MMA. At HW hes too small imo especially considering the no1 tactic everyone is gonna use against him is grappling.

Tbf regarding Brock, he had a pretty high level wrestling (and I dont mean WWE) background in addition to being roided to ****. I think he was in a totally different world of strength and athleticism to Joshua as well. The guy was a legit specimen.
I think its semi-possible to put them in a good gym for 2 years and make them fringe top 15 level tbh. The current UFC HW scene is pretty ****ing bad with a relatively small number of well rounded guys and good grapplers. Just look at the situation with Gane, they fast tracked him to a title shot and made sure to match him up with sloppy brawlers instead of anyone who might expose his grappling weaknesses. I dont think its all that crazy to entertain the idea that with a couple of years training a HW boxer might be able to hang with or beat guys like Rozenstruik, Lewis, Tuivasa and Volkov.In the actual UFC? not against UFC fighters with boxing rules a-la Floyd-McGregor?

In my opinion the better suited for UFC is Wilder. He has a better chance when it hits the ground. AJ and Tyson are good standing.. Usyk is a composed fighter and the UFC guys are somewhat reckless which would also suit Wilder.
Wilder's nickname in the UFC would be the Wild-man.

Those saying Fury is laughable. He’s all wrong for any type of grappling those who grappled know why .
Wilder would be even worse that’s not even worth going into but I’ll just say if you think he breaks his hands with boxing gloves what do you think would happen with 4 oz gloves where it’s easier to injure your hand ? And the way he punches ? Cusioned gloves and a lot of hand wrapping let’s him punch incorrect .
Im betting Usyk actually has some sort of understanding of different martial arts and he’d be very well balanced if he fought at 205 .
Joshua actually does formal grappling in training so he’d be used to clinches more then those guys he’s also got a nasty explosive flying knee and is the most explosive guy out of the ones here . He’d be a better version of Ceril Ganes if he adapted quickly ,freakishly they look like brothers to .
Id say Usyk at 205 .
Wilder and Fury aren’t built for cage fighting .
