    I give Usyk the best chance to beat Fury

    I give Whyte 0% chance, Joshua about 10%, Hunter maybe 1%, Povetkin 10%, Wilder 5% to win the third fight.

    Usyk is the best competition for Fury right now. He is well skilled operator.

    I will change my mind if Chisora beats Usyk ( not likely).

    And don`t mention guys like Hrgovic, Ajagba, Yoka as a threat again, they are only prospects.

    Wilder is the one who came closer to beat him, so that's who I give the best chance right now. Usyk is unproven at heavyweight and small.

      Because Fury beat Wilder he is apparently the least likely guy to ever win a fight again. I dont get it myself the guy is 42-1-1 with 41 KO the lone loss and draw is with Fury but he only has a 5 percent chance of beating Fury? I dont understand the math there myself. Some people kill me.

        I have posted several times I think Usyk is a problem for any hwt if he can handle the power of these guys.

        I just do t know if he can overcome the size difference. I also figure the top guys can take his punch.

          Wilder wasn't even close to beating Fury in either fight. Fury beat Wilder twice and he completely embarassed him in the 2nd fight.

            Stop this whole charade that Wilder never came close to beating Fury!

            People have revisionist history or forget that Wilder actually turned Fury’s lights out in their first fight but yes Fury got up and at the same time Jack Reiss did what 95% of other refs wouldn’t do which is give him all an every chance an not immediately stop the fight to make sure he’s ok and protect him!

            Never count out a former champion!

              I stated the truth 'Wilder is the one who came closer to beat him' and you had to get emotional.

                Usyk is too small, point blank. So is Povetkin.

                Wilder is going to get soundly outboxed again but he's always got a chance because he has dynamite in his hands.

                Ortiz is looking too old but he's probably the second best technical fighter at the top level of the heavyweights and he's also big and has power. I'd give him as good of a shot as anybody but he seems faded.

                Joshua is too stiff, he'll never lay a glove on Fury.

                Pulev is old and has no power.

                Ruiz is too short and has no reach. Even if he shows up in shape, Fury probably toys with him.

                Hunter is too small.

                Whyte is way, way too basic. Zero chance.

                  What % chance to you have Usyk at?

                  But yea I agree. Idk if I'd be as harsh with the %'s with everyone as you & I'd definitely not have Povetkin as a top guy to beat Fury, but the main point, Fury is gonna be a hard guy to beat, is hard to argue against.

                  I feel like the downfall most likely to best Fury is himself if he falls out of sorts again or loses his focus more than it'll be a specific guy.

                    Lmfao. Yea boxing fan math is r3tarded.

                    As an avid bettor I try to have a more realistic thought process on chances to win. For example right now at my local sportsbook Fury is -350 or 77% to win. Wilder is +250 or 28% to win. Or I'd basically say it's a 75/25 fight. If anyone legit thinks Fury is 95%+ to win & is actually right it's a hugely profitable bet to wager on Fury. The reality is it probably a 75/25 bet give or take so there isn't as much of a betting edge as many fans wanna proclaim without any skin in the game.
