    Not a good look
    If Fury wins the WBC belt, the Joshua fight becomes 10x bigger and more lucrative. The fight would be massive regardless...

      I thin people will be surprised at how easily Fury beats Wilder. This is a big mistake these two are miles apart in boxing skills Wilder only has power on him.

        Somehow power with very poor ability to execute has made Wilder the man with this generation blinded by nationalism , though i wonder do posters actually believe what they post on here ? Well probably !

        If i was ****** and relied on this forum i would think skill is unnecessary and its more important losing rounds and just waiting for a K.O shot . lol

        Unless you think Wilder has shown some type of true dominance outside highlight clips i would not pick him over the Fury im seeing in just his training clips .

          Agree 100% wilder is a true powerhouse but fury even this version will be the most skilled person he’s fought. He nearly lost to Ortiz who looked awful his two previous fights he’ll lose to fury it’s a shame because he had a shot against Joshua who is also more skilled than wilder but not as good defensively as fury. His mistake should have kept pushing for that fight.

            Oh my bad. What I meant to say was, the Fury vs Wilder fight (if it happens) won't sell out a high school gym even after all the yelling and screaming they both do before the fight. Meanwhile the Joshua vs Povetkin fight, even though it didn't sell out 90k within an hour, it will still sell out before the fight happens. Is that better? Dumbass

              I love how you idiots are again talking about AJ and how this fight(farce) will be a bigger fight than the Povetkin fight. The Joshua/Povetkin fight will sell out Wembley Stadium within an hour while the Fury vs Wilder fight will not sell out an arena in Vegas at all hahaha. Fury is not ready and that's the reason Wilder is up for the fight and not taking 15 million to fight AJ for all the belts. If it were AJ fighting Fury next, then Wilder's fans would be all over him talking about how Fury hasn't fought in years, he's not ready and AJ is a bully for fighting him now. But since it's their guy Wilder, there's a parade for him hahahahah. You turds are worse than Canelo fans at this point. 40 fights and only one credible opponent on his record? And that one opponent almost KOed him? And you idiots treat him like a God???? Pathetic

              Because some times it takes a little while to sell out a venue that holds 90k. They will eventually sell out and people will watch on DAZN and on PPV. The Wilder fight won't even sell out an arena that holds 20k and if it's PPV, it will bomb
              Wilder-Fury will sell out WHEREVER it's held. You've either got to be the biggest AJ fanboy, or an imbecile, to think otherwise.

              Secondly, the reason AJ hasn't sold out vs Povetkin yet, is because Wembley has disallowed Eddie Hearn to continue his ticket scalping scheme.

                Wilder losing to a fighter everyone knows is not 100% and will be maybe 80% if lucky puts a death blow on Wilders resume .


                A win over Breazeale would prove he can handle power punchers , bigger than him . Just bc Joshua toyed with Breazeale doesnt mean Wilder can .
                Not saying I wouldn’t like to see a Wilder/Breazeale fight but career-wise Fury’s a better opponent. Whoever loses (Wilder on points or Fury by late KO, I imagine), they will have been part of a huge fight, gotten a good payday and a lot of exposure.

                I disagree, Wilder getting outboxed by Fury wouldn’t be anything to be ashamed of and I think people (possibly more people than ever) would tune in to watch him fight in the future even if he loses because he’s an exciting fighter. Fury may be 80% but a win’s a win and a loss is a loss. I expect him to come at least 80%, he will be six months, 2 fights, and three training camps into his comeback, and he looks to be in pretty good shape already from some recent videos I’ve seen.

                My only real concern about this fight is if somehow Wilder gets an early (like 1st or 2nd rd) KO, I think that could potentially send Fury off the rails.

                  What was his scalping scheme?

                    With AJ planning to fight everybody but Wilder I don't see how is this bad for him.

                    If Wilder beats Fury they have to go after every other opponent that AJ won't fight.

                      To be fair to Wilder, he can fill venues like the Barclay's Centre.

                      He's doing nowhere near AJ numbers and couldn't carry a PPV, but he actually isn't a bad ticket seller, contrary to popular belief.
