There's no way Joshua can beat Fury. He absolutely cannot match the endurance. Fury gets floored more than once and gets up and continues with such a clear head; the pace and output plus that determination is far too much for Joshua before factoring in the difference in boxing ability.

This fight absolutely confirms for me there's no way for Joshua to win, even if Fury was standing in front of him and just going to war.

Isn't that like 3 without a win for him? I think this could be the end of him honestly.

But he has taken a ferocious beaten from Fury. I don’t think Wilder is done but he’s the 4th best in the HW division and far behind those three as well. Maybe he fights a Parker and then the loser of Fury v White but it’s a narrow path for him now

Great fight, best of this trilogy by a mile.

Fair play to Wilder he was a dead man walking for 5 rounds there but stayed on his feet.

What a fight!!! Absolute night and day compared to the Joshua-Usyk fight two weeks ago.

Fury just grinded Wilder out till he literally had feck all left in the tank. I just couldn’t believe how Wilder was still standing.

Overall, a terrific fight!!

Yeah he really did, it was ugly from Fury at times but used all his tools to win

It's pretty bad for Wilder that Fury isn't a power puncher. Taken some serious damage these last couple of fights.

Joshua wouldn’t even beat Wilder imo, never mind Fury.

Great fight. Fury is cementing his place in heavyweight boxing history, he’s got to be up there with the all time greats now.

Fight of the year contender.

Looked like Fury was gone at one point. Credit to Wilder, showed amazing heart and could have won.

But what can you say, Fury is an unbelievable boxer. The extra power he has gained is really impressive.

Joshua knocks Wilder out IMO and easily too. Fury’s volume over power allowed Wilder to survive longer than e should have imo.
wilder literally didn’t box for 3/4 of that fight and just took shots to the point his ability to get beaten up is being praised

Tbf wilder took Fury because Fury looked like easy prey. Then he lost and was in too deep. :lol:

Credit to Wilder. Thought he was done most of the rounds but he kept coming back. Great fight

It depends on how long that list is. He isn't even in the conversation with Lewis, Tyson, Ali, or Foreman.

I don't know how much punch resistance this fight has taken out of him (he's shaving years of his life/career with these kind of damaging contests), but you can say for certain Joshua would have to match his stamina and endurance and resilience, which we've seen no evidence Johsua has the kind of chin we've seen from both of these guys tonight.

I don't think he's got the heart or resistance for a fight like this with either of them.

Well worth staying up for. Both for us watching it and for Wilder earning some respect for getting as far as he did.

Well that was entertaining. Fury made it harder for himself by nearly getting knocked out.

Good Lord, Wilder needs a stun gun to the temple to be put down. He’s like a zombie. Credit to him but he’s probably got himself brain damage with that type of punishment.

Not a very technical fight but my word… were you not entertained? Glad I stayed up for this.

Deontay Wilder is trash as a boxer and as a human. Garbage sportsmanship.

Brutally exposed for the third time and deserves nothing.

Fury - lost for words. What a fighter.

Exactly! His weight gain was a disaster and he reverted to type about 1 and a half rounds in. He didn’t show any improvement as a boxer and the fight should have been stopped long before it was. I’m not seeing where this praise is coming from. Fury doesn’t dominate any other top HW like this because Wilder is so technically poor.
