Comments Thread For: Hearn: WBC Has NOT Ordered Rematch, Wilder Can Face Joshua

[Vinnykin]

I haven’t seen anyone (intelligent) saying Wilder is #1. We are all just saying AJ is #3. Fury is #1. Was before he left, and is now.

Fair enough..... so what you are saying is Fury at 60% is enough to beat Wilder and Joshua?

What happens now? Fury has kept himself in shape and is going into the rematch in much better shape....

Sorry. I've been off a while.

Yeah, I was wondering where you went haha

I've never felt Fury was 60%. I was the one on here all along who had the history of drug and alcohol abuse in the past screaming "the body has incredible recovery abilities! He's going to be ready and surprise all of you!" and everyone called me an idiot.

What happens now is we get an excellent rematch of a 50/50 fight. Fury is the best boxer in the division bar none, nobody is close. Wilder is the most dangerous heavyweight in the division, nobody is close. I can't wait.

I forgot there was reasonable posters on here...... damn I've missed this place lol

Genuine question though - because there were people saying Wilder only took the fight because Fury was a fat, drunken mess and had to lose 140lbs....... so, me, as a Fury fan, said.... "no bother, Fury will beat Wilder even at x%"

Now Fury actually went in there after a massive weight loss and beat Wilder IMO, althought not on the score cards (fair enough).

I'm just happy Fury is back.... and genuinely.... I think he is faster and sharper in the rematch, and wins convincingly.

I think the rematch can go either way too, which is why I’m so excited for it. Fury will be in better shape, but Wilder will be going in there smarter (say what you will, but he’s a fast learner in the ring, and the KD in the 12th was a decently timed trap) it’s going to be the match of the year IMO, because after the first fight no matter who you think won (I purposely didn’t score it so I could enjoy it, was fine with the draw though said Fury was winning going into 12) when that final bell went I was wishing for 15 rounds again.

Also, I don’t think wilder took the fight as a cherrypick, he took the fight so both him and fury could give the middle finger to AJ and Hearn after negotiations fell through (and it’s worked brilliantly) Wilder and Fury have been on friendly terms for years now.
