I want to see wilder v AJ. Wilder is a brawler who swings wild punches but hits hard. He got rocked by eric molina though and hasnt really faced anyone good except maybe ortiz, a fight he was losing until ortiz tired and couldnt survive the onslaught late on.

Looking forward to fury v wilder though then either man facing AJ in april.

I actually think Fury will knock Wilder out. Probably sounds an odd shout, but his technical boxing skills will bamboozle Wilder's relative lack of technique, imo. I've seen Wilder rocked a few times by very average fighters, and I think Fury will rock him and then put him to bed.

Conversely, I'd also not be shocked to see Fury knocked out.

Weird fight for me.

Wilder cannot box to save his life. Fury should absolutely hit him and move and he will beat him comfortably. Problem is he will get into the macho stuff I think then it could be anyone’s fight. Both will be really susceptible to the knock out.

Without a venue announced the fight still might not happen too

Fury could stop Wilder, especially if he boxes well and utilises his size and wears Wilder down, sort of a stoppage down to accumulation of punches.

Fury’s biggest problem, rustiness and possibly having seen better days aside, is not having uncle Peter in his corner. He’s the only one who can control him.
The last time Fury fought in America he was without Peter who wasn’t allowed in the country. Cunningham dropped him and Fury was very up and down.

Eubank always looks good against overmatched opponents. He struggles when he faces top fighters.
If he fancies it, it’s a very easy money fight for Smith now.

Smith can unify super middle, it’s not loaded right now.

Always thought he only shows 70% of what he’s capable of. He’s a talented fighter with the absolute perfect physique for a boxer imo. He’s a massive super middleweight though, he will surely move up at some point.

I know that video is seen as funny, but it winds me up a bit. The guy inside could genuinely have been seriously hurt - worse than a broken jaw. People have been killed with one punch before, by average Joes - if he caught the guy in the temple, could have kilt the boy.

Good, scrappy fight between Glenn Foot and Robbie Davies Jr on Sky Sports at the moment, both boxers faces covered in blood as early as the third round.

Edit. I think the blood on Foots face may be mainly from Davies.

Dave Allen...why? Just why does this bloke get air time?
He’s crap. He’s not particularly funny either. Hard to understand.

Wilder has the IQ of the taco. Hope the guy is alright
