    Assuming Fury and Wilder go again, it has to be Whyte. Who else is there? Too early for Usyk.

    No idea where one of the judges got 115-111 from, I said to my mate straight after the final bell that if they gave Wilder first 2 rounds then it will be a draw, which in hindsight was probably fair. That knockdown in the 12th I think the ref would've called it if it had been in the 10th, Fury was out. He did a lot better than I thought he would and there will obviously be a rematch.

    My really safe bet of Fury on points or Wilder by KO cost me a lot of money so **** the judges.

    Hearn will probably get AJ vs Haye on next and say its the fight the whole world wants to see.

    Sounds like it was a good fight, hopefully he gets a rematch over here.

    Whyte has knocked him out before...albeit back in the day...I wouldn't mind a repeat. Like you say no one else available since AJ will avoid the obvious fights...then blame negotiations.

    Whyte has improved a lot since Joshua beat him, as has Joshua so it’s a fight I’d like to see either way. I think Whyte deserves his shot at Wilder though after he is done with Chisora.

    Won't Joshua have a mandatory next?

    So he was. I wouldn't mind seeing him against White again but doubt Hearn will be keen as it's a dangerous fight for Joshua imo.

    I think he was anyway, Hearn & Co had a number of days to negotiate Wilder before some of AJ’s belts become compulsory for Povetkin, iirc.

    Dylian Whyte may become mandatory but he’s got a fight on the 22nd so not sure how that works in terms of AJ waiting for him.

    Utterly embarrassing scoring. The fight may have been a draw, but it's another loss for the sport.

    Just watched the fight and nothing changes my mind. AJ would beat both of them, no problem.

    He's got no need to avoid anyone,those fights will happen for sure. You say he'll pussy out, but how do you know about negotiations. How do you know that Wilder didn't pussy out? Any man who climbs into a boxing ring deserves respect.

    Why? It's their career and they make millions from it.

    Indeed they do, but they are literally putting their lives on the line. Most of these guys are 17 st plus and they hit properly. They're not the average Joe on the street, and for anyone on here to call any of them a pussy is ridiculous.

    Which they're choosing to do. Same as F1 and MotoGP. Some of them are pricks, though. Respect is earned not given.
