    Fury x3, Parker then Zhang.

    Absolute insane. Murderers row imo.

    The fight tonight shouldn't have happened. Zhang is a super duper heavy and Wilder is a cruiserweight really.

    It was difficult to watch that KO tbh

    The KO was hard to watch, but then I remembered Wilder saying he wanted to watch his opponent die in the ring.

    id say it’s a shame, that guys only start really facing elite opponents once they lose their 0. We rarely get to see what guys are made of until after they lose.

        A very valid point
        Unfortunately it is the reality of things
        How are those victories looking for Fury now ???

          He's lost all those fights though...

          And I'm one of the guys who gives the man credit for his long reign. But he's absolutely done now. Needs to hang it up and call it a career. If he's not even going to commit to his right hand anymore, he's got zero weapons left.

            Eight fights split between Chisora, Wilder and McDermott
