    "Wilder beats Fury, settles the WBA mandatory defense (depending on how the fight goes, I don't see that being a hangup for anyone), rematches Fury, and then the build to Wilder-Joshua begins."

    Not a feasible scenario at all. Fury is now the A side if he beats Wlad twice in a row. Wilder vs Joshua, winner gets Fury

      Fury is a true fighter, not a fabricated one like Bum Squad and Oluwafemi. Fury pretty much made Wlad looking like a chump in that fight.

        Sorry, but I find Fury very difficult to like. He is good and will probably win again but I hope he loses.

          I feel like I'm rooting for both guys. Whoever wins, I want it to be compelling, and emphatic. If Fury really beats down Wlad I'll be happy for him and excited about him as a champ (the last win was honestly unimpressive). If Wlad wins by doing something like he did to Pulev, I'll feel glad that the old champ was able to return to top for by overcoming his issues.
          As long as they put in some work this time, I'll be happy with both guys, win or lose.
          War Fury! War Wlad!

            I've been a Fury fan since back in the dark days of channel 5 and that massive belly...a time when he actually backed up his boasts. For close to 2 years, he hasn't done that. We don't need another tall, uncoordinated heavyweight who taps and prods his way to a win. We need a real fighter.
            Thank you. I'm tired of Fury fans acting like he put on a Sweet Pea type defensive performance against Wlad. People don't want to see that. We want to see KO's in the heavyweight division. We want to see more than 6 punches landed a round, especially if only one punch was clean. And people wonder why AJ is so popular. It's not because he's a hype job. It's because he looks like the heavyweights we were used to seeing before Wlad's reign. And it's showing in ticket sales. The Fury-Wlad fight is selling horribly with only two weeks to go Not trying to **** on Fury but he needs more realistic fans like yourself.

              yeah because he laid so much leather on him last time

                Klitch is a shell of his former self - but I'm still picking and rooting for him.

                Fury's antics have become incredibly boring. If he had some wit to go with his mouth, he'd be a great entertainer - but it's just the same regurgitated garbage every interview. He's boring to watch and boring to listen to, so what is there to draw the fans in?

                Fury won the first fight, absolutely. But let's not pretend Klitch didn't beat himself. Klitch fought, possibly, the worst fight of his life - and Fury pillow-fisted his way to victory. But, a win is a win I guess - just a ****in boring one.

                Would be nice if Fury had some pop to back up the gas talk.

                    And Fury didn't look much better.

                    Here's the facts about your hero. Fury's hand and foot speed are average at best and he is fairly uncoordinated for a world class athlete. Nor does Fury possess great power, again for a heavyweight, fairly average. What Fury does have in his corner is that he uses his size advantage verrrrry well and has a fighters mentality. But that's it. Throw in his weak chin and you have Big John Tate waiting to happen.

                    The first world class heavyweight that has good power and fights an aggressive fight is gonna put Furys lights out.
