Comments Thread For: Warren: If Joshua Beats Wilder - So What, Fury Beat Wilder Three Times!

[GBP4LIFE]

Exactly who cares LOLLL

Fury beat Wilder silly like a red headed stepchild repeatedly ..

If Fury had beaten Wilder three times he would have a point. He didn't and he doesn't.

Hahaha.....yeah, ok. He outboxed him in the 1st, then beat him up and khtfo in the 2nd, then went back n forth before putting Wilder back in his place....on his back and counted out. That's called a domination. Hate to break it to ya

Not like Warren to be acting like a k#ob. His guy is fighting a retired MMA fighter f#fs. At least AJ is trying to rebuild, bearing in mind he ost to Usk, which there is o shame in. I'm sure going forward in the near future, Usk will be the man to beat. That's if Fury ever has the gonnads to fight him.

Aj ran from a Fury fight sending back the contract demanding commercial control & A-side status, quack. In your book that's Fury's fault?
But what Fury did with Usyk is unforgivable in my book, no different to Aj ducking Wilder in 18.

To be realistic Fury has only fought two top fighters in 33 fights, Klitschko and Wilder. Now that he has the belt, he avoids serious opponents. His goal is to hold the belt as long as they tolerate it without any real fight..... my point of view

Youve just described Ajs career upto Usyk.

I've said it before & I'll say it again take away all the shot past it 38-41 year olds in Ajs resume & who's he beat?? NAME THEM!
It's no coincidence after facing that can Franklin & the shot Whyte popped he chose Helenius 39 & next Wilder who will be 38 pushing 39 by the time this fight happens..... You don't see the pattern?
That trilogy with Fury took something out of both of them, that's 3 fight's between the top 2.

Imagine how great this era could have been if all 3 had the stones to fight each other over they're career's & not just cash in at the end. There's only 1 that's avoided the other 2 & his names Aj.

Fury seems to be on the downslide so I wouldn't be surprised if Fury is scared of getting hurt badly in a 4th fight against Wilder but I imagine there is no money to be with a fourth fight either.
If Wilder beats AJ then Wilder will likely become the WBC mandatory and Fury will be forced to fight him again if he doesn't fight Usyk.

Of course there's money in a fourth fight against Wilder particularly if he beats Joshua. What evidence is there of a downslide?

[Goatintheboat]

You don't win world titles by being backed up all night, and decked twice 'Once badly'. That is what happened in the first Fury vs Wilder fight 'The fight was a draw'.

So overall Fury beat Wilder twice, with one Draw 'The trilogy was not a easy battle for Fury. And there is definitive evidence that since fighting Wilder three times 'Fury is not quite enthusiastic about fighting other Top Level Heavyweight boxers'.

But of course Fury two wins vs Wilder are mega wins etc.

Don't be silly. The first fight was never a draw. He fought his mandatory and destroyed him easily. He hasn't had to fight any other top heavyweights because the mandatory fight hasn't been called yet, and the WBC have been clear since the Whyte defence that it will be towards the end of this year. Of course they need to decide who the mandatory challenger is first......

Fury has proved as many have before him that being a champion with a high enough profile makes you big money. If anyone else wants his belt outside of the mandatory they need to make the fight. No one has because no one thinks they can beat him. Joshua's team couldn't even be bothered to discuss it preferring to 'rebuild'.

Truth be told, they took a lot out of each other in the three fights.
It's not a one way street.
We don't even know, maybe Fury got the worst of it.
He hasn't fought a dangerous opponent for while and declining to fight Usyk (middleweight) doesn't look good at all.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Tyson’s beaten him three times and probably taken a lot of miles off of his clock in the fights that he had with Tyson. Tyson did a job on him, especially in that third fight, he had Tyson down as well, it was a tough fight. Wilder didn’t come out of that fight physically well I don’t think. I don’t think he’ll beat Wilder by the way but that’s irrelevant – I don’t think he’ll beat Wilder.”

A few days after the third fight, Fury was saying he doesn't feel right and doesn't want to be in any more dangerous fights like that. During the Whyte build up he was saying that Whyte's his final opponent before retiring but he will be back to do crossover fights and exhibitions which is what he's doing now. I don't think he wants Usyk or even AJ for that matter, he's always found a way out of those fights whenever they were a possibility. I could be wrong but I think Fury might be done.

Warren trying to say Josh won't get credit as wilder lost 3 times to fury already? Why shouldn't Josh get credit when everyone picking wilder to ko Josh in 3 rounds?I

hundred percent. You'd give massive credit to any underdog that pulled out a W. It's not quite Tyson Douglas territory but odds are stacked against Joshua.

In fact, I think people should calm down on saying wilder destroys josh, as when Josh wins they will need to be giving Josh huge credit. They will be called up on it, their predictions.
But then they will back track and say wilder is a bum and koed 2 times by fury, Josh beating wilder is nothing?
