Yeah I can't see wilder or fury being around much longer, wilder has been very close to being beaten a few times over the last couple of years, fury sounds like he's losing interest again. Agree about canelo, although I had ggg winning the first. Crazy to think he had something like 20 Pro fights before he turned 19

Boxing politics, who knows mate, frustrating as a fan as mentioned.

I can’t see Wilder and Fury fighting again either. I think Wilder will retire soon sadly. Can’t say I’m a fan but he has got Dynamite in that right hand and can change any fight at anytime

As for Joshua, I’m sure he can string out another 10 bum fights before he takes a real step forward. How long do we have to wait ffs. Beyond boring now, he is becoming a plastic champion

Wilder and Joshua, it’s that simple, chance for either man to unify the belts and the division, you can argue their quality but it is the stuff of legend. it has to happen

Then i look at Canelo who had two proper wars with GGG and his latest outing against Jacobs, 51 professional fights, that is something VERY special for me, much more special than any of these heavyweight bums can ever deliver

100% mate, but he should have been given his shot before now. Seems like maybe the wbc are doing their best to stop whyte getting at wilder for some reason. Just can't see how he hasn't been mandatory before now, and they know he ain't beating fury.

So disappointing as a fight fan, just make them happen, everybody wants to see them

Whyte will get his head boxed off if he fights Fury and sparked if he fights Wilder, the best option for a title is AJ imho

That's just it, the wbc are the worst! Whyte has been number 1 contender on the wbc for nearly 600 days now and he's still not been made mandatory for wilder. Somehow they made brezeale mandatory even though he was below whyte. Waiting nearly 2 years and still not being named mandatory is a massive piss take

Time will tell mate

The WBC are good for making mandatory defences

Shame the IBF, WBA and WBO are not and make that bum Joshua have some real fights, ****

No you are right, it was martinez that rematch Ed and beat salido. My mistake.
He won't be beaten by anyone lower than welterweight, that I garauntee. He's just too slick.

Back to the big lads, I see the wbc have just ordered whyte v fury

He has fought nobody outstanding as yet

And fights do come into it BIG time, different styles to contend with and as the levels rise so does the quality of the opposition!

He is beatable, you heard it from me first

And he did not fight Salido again

He lost against a world champion in his second pro fight(and the n avenged the loss) Yeah he probably stayed amateur too long so may never get the 30-40 fights many do, but does that really tarnish his record? Nah. If he'd have won a single world title and that's it then I might agree with you to a point, but a 3 weight champ, who will be unified after his next fight in only 13fights or whatever it is has to be up there with the best imo. Nobody has even looked close to beating him since that loss, and can't see who will have a chance really unless he moves up weight classes too quickly

And he lost to a fighter well passed his best, nuff said for me

After Spence, was not exactly a draining fight for him. Time will tell, it has to happen

If he had the numbers game (40 plus pro fights) and fought some good fighters and had the wins he would be a hall of famer, one of the greats for me, he has not had the fights and never will be, he will always be a could have been in my eyes

A boxing purists press boy dream

Yeah he's had very few fights, but he's a 3weight world champ already so he can't be that bad... Garcia? No way on earth mate, he won't be the same fighter again after spence, Mark my words..
