    All have claimed it would be a name opponent.

    As of now there's strong possibility one of them will face Malik Scott, and Shannon Briggs would be another opponent.

    Mike Perez is also considered as a Fury's opponent.

    Takam may face Joshua if they agree on terms.

    Charles Martin in talks with AJ team.

    Your predictions: who fights who next of these 3 British HWs?

    AJ vs Martin.
    Hughie Fury vs Malik Scott.
    Haye vs Briggs.

    3-0 England.

    Scott would be a very dangerous opponent for Hughie

    Yep. The least experienced of the three, Hughie Fury, would beat America's top HW in Wilder. British Boxing is at the top of the mountain right now.

    If he is, then Hughie Fury is awful.

    That's true. The UK have 3 more world champions than USA despite a 5th of the population, a 500th of the PED cheats and a 10th of the chances

    Yep, same goes with football (soccer) too, and our vastly superior league and players. We gave the world these great sports, so it only stands to reason that we are at the forefront of both. God Save the Queen. Britannia Rules the Waves!!! :happy:happy:happy:happy

    The groups that do the best historically in boxing are the ones with the fewest options of succeeding elsewhere.

    Must not be a lot of top Tech companies in the UK. So a higher percentage of their residents have to punch each other in the head to earn coin.

    *If* Perez turned up, he'd absolutely school Fury.

    I'm not so sure, that's what's great about this match-up. We don't know how shot Perez is after taking that beating from Pov + we don't really know the full potential of Hughie, who was battling ilness for most of 2015. It could be kinda awesome to see these guys fighting.

    About Briggs... Well, I guess it's OK for him to fight Haye. As long as there's no belt at stake, I'm OK with that.
