Whittakker has some amazing attributes, but it's still far too early to tell how far he can really go.

The trouble with showboating against tin cans is that you are showboating against tin cans.

Why?

Doing so would
(a) damage his career
(b) give up his shot at the titles
(c) be more of a political statement than fighting...

[Monty Fisto]

Totally. He's like a throw back and has as much guts as anyone currently boxing. Hope he gets one of the three dream fights he mentions....

[Monty Fisto]

Just think about your nose, Carl.

[Monty Fisto]

Optical illusion.

In real life it's more like 3/4 is missing......

Just when you think he can't say anything more stupid. What a div.

No, the mention of Ali was not disingenuous, as it was not meant to diectly compare Usyk to Ali in the way that you (somewhat disingenuously on your part, I might add) are suggesting.

You made a broad claim that no one watching HW wants to see technicians.

I refuted your point...

Wilder: "I’m in the business, so I know a lot of things. I’m ready to go any moment of time, place, no matter what it is. They know that. I’m simple."

Can't argue with the last sentence.

I disagree with a lot of what you wrote, but I would agree that Joshua vs Fury is preferable to Joshua vs Wilder. Joshua vs Fury would be for a belt and the reward is greater, as you say.

This is comparing it all on paper though. In reality, the decision will be made on what is more concrete....

And Bread stresses it was a razor close fight, but it was a razor close fight in general with Loma winning the two clearest rounds. There were no such obvious rounds in favour of Haney. Nor was Loma hurt or rocked at any point. Haney's head was snapped back cleanly several times; I don't recall Haney...

Yeah, that was a great offer, like one of Fury's special contracts. Fight me for $50m, check your inbox, we need a yes by midday or it's off. Promoter goes to meet representatives to discuss the contract. The representatives decide they don't want to meet to discuss it. That sounds just like Wilder...
