    I don't see it a jealousy. AJ beat Charles Martin to win his first title, and Britain went crazy.
    Fury beat Wlad in Germany to win his straps, and Britian shot him down the next day.

    You might say jealousy, I say he feels he has been treated very badly.

    He definitely feels hard done by and probably wonders why the British Public embraced Joshua with open arms but he was vilified and never gave him the praise he felt he had earned.

    He's partially to blame for his lack of appeal as his win over Wlad was overshadowed by some of his more controversial views, people were talking about what he said rather than what he had done. He's been rather naive in the past with the press and it's cost him. Joshua in comparison has been much more media savvy, maybe due to being promoted with Hearn who clearly knows how to play the media to his own advantage.

    Absolutely agree with this, however whenever anyone I know was criticising him for his views, I told them that he was basically voicing what every catholic in the world is supposed to think.

    Hearn knows nothing at all about what goes on in the ring. I feel like he picks fights purely on the outcome he thinks will make him the most money down the road.

    I see no scenario in which AJ ever fights Fury.

    If Fury wins, Hearn'll moan about how the rematch clause prevents an AJ fight in Apr, even him andf AJ would have never let it happen. Then he'll blame the BT Sport-Sky divide for a couple of years while AJ fights a carousel of mismatches and mandatories. Eventually AJ gets unexpectedly sparked by someone he should have beat like Tony Yoka and then his paper belts all get divided up.

    Now unlike the yarns by Matchroom stooges which are on par with Chemical Ali's best lines, this is extremely likely to happen.

    I agree, Fury Joshua (assuming Fury wins which I don't think he will) is unlikely. There is a well-scheduled plan for AJ, and a serious risk of getting beat doesn't factor in it.
