It's a fantasy. There's nothing big in the heavyweight division in America for years now, except the weight. I don't even think Wilder vs Joshua is big.

Fury needs to do more to get a good ranking, his name alone shouldn't do so. That's not how sports work.

Originally posted by Sid-Knee View PostShow me where Hearn said Fury is ready for Whyte?
Hearn said: "The good news is he's now served his ban. It looks almost inevitable that we'll see him return to boxing, which is great for the sport.
"We've got three fights for him. He can fight Dillian Whyte on the comeback, then Tony Bellew and then he can have Anthony Joshua."
A potential fight with Joshua would be the "biggest fight in British boxing history" according to Hearn, and he confirmed that he had already discussed the fight with Fury.

This is just one of times Hearn mentioned Whyte vs. Fury! Funny thing about this one is Whyte was 'the comeback fight." Not after 2-3 fights, but the comeback fight!
August 2, 2018:
"I want either Fury or Charr next," Whyte exclusively told Sky Sports.
"Charr has the WBA belt so why not, it's a good fight, he's a great fighter and will come to fight. Whether he wants it is a different story, I know I do and it can be made.
"It's time I got a shot.
"Then there's Fury. The guy's a joker and a mess, mentally and physically, he's irrelevant right now.
"He's saying he wants to fight Wilder, but he's talking rubbish, that won't happen and it makes no sense right now.
"Fury-Whyte is a great fight, let's get it done. It's more realistic him fighting me. If he wants a real fight, we can get it on in December, it'll have the money and hype, and it'll be massive."
"It's a proper British dust-up and will be a better fight than him against Wilder."

Whyte didn't mention Fury though until it came out that Fury may be fighting Wilder. He never called him out before that.

buster douglas was considered a bum and made 1 million against mike tyson.
in his first defense, he made over 24 million.
welcome to boxing.

Originally posted by Sid-Knee View PostBy not fighting for over 2 years you lose the lineal championship. So Fury isn't lineal in anything.
You could try to argue that he retired. But the consensus is that he didnt and that he's still lineal champion. Even ring magazine refers to him as lineal champion.

They are both far more credible than the Ring at this point.
