    should this fight be made next year for the british strap?

    Joshua v Chisora / Fury v Price early in the year then a big summer blockbuster wih the two undefeated british prospects fighting it out with the winner going on to fight Erkan Teper for the EBU belt.

    Joshua is still ranked highly with the WBC so a shot against either Deontay Wilder / Alexander Povetkin would be interesting as he develops

    personally think that joshua walks through hughie fury, hughie is still young and filling out but at the minute he doesn't punch hard enough to hold joshua off him. but in 18-24 months time................ different story.

    Why should David Price is a world title fight? He has stepped up three times to either Euro/Fringe world class and been knocked out 3 times, so should not be anywhere near one

    Hughie boxes his head off. Mismatch.

    Hughie easily outboxes him.

    This is like my facebook feed... all the casuals sucking Joshua's nuts because he can KO some bums. Power isn't everything. Joshua is a big stiff idiot who couldn't touch Hughie. Hughie lacks power but he's one of the heavyweight divisions best pure boxers. He'll retire undefeated.

    Hughie cruises to a UD.

    I think Hughie would make Joshua look daft and win a landslide that would be more damaging than being KOd which you can always put down to a lucky punch.

    Would love to see this fight.

    Retire undefeated? That's a bold claim. In terms of heavyweights, who - apart from RM - has managed to navigate an entire top level career without at least one loss?

    Fury is too slick, Joshua would find it very difficult to land on him and even if he does fury will be able to take all the power out of his shots with movement

    Hughies lack of genuine punch power will be a stumbling point to his career potentially but he is a good boxer.

    He is still very very young for a heavy give him another 3 years and he might start packing a wallop and getting in similar shape to Tyson V Wlad wouldn't hurt either.

    Joushua wins easily in the next couple of years but after that. Fury's greater mobility and better foot work could be interesting

    It's an automatic match if Joshua fights for euro next.. but maybe we can get it before then..

    Hughie needs to add some lean muscle I'd agree. Should consult Joshua as he's an expert having added near two stone of it. A few tips on what doc to consult...

    Joshua walks through him no problem.

    fury puts together some nice combo's and has good speed and footwork but at the moment he just cant crack a nut.
