    I believe even if Fury is outboxing and embarrassing Wilder, Joshua and Hearn will avoid Fury. He is definitely a bigger threat.

    I think the idea of an all British unification would be to big of a deal to let pass

    Matchroom made 2 offers recently to fight Fury to which Furys team have turned down.

    If anyone is going to be avoiding anyone after the fight then its Fury team.

    No way AJ can talk his way out of the Fury fight if he beats Wilder.
    I imagine they will low ball him badly.

    Warren said the offer wasn’t even close to 60-40 but they want 50-50 anyway

    If Fury beats Wilder the 50-50 demand is fair.

    At this point Joshua-Miller is OK as Fury will fight with Wilder and we already saw Joshua vs Whyte, but after this AJ must face the winner of Wilder/Fury.

    Or maybe they won’t care and go on the Mayweather route when popularity doesn’t matter just to make more money.

    Whoever has that belt,Joshua isn’t gonna dodge a massive U.K. fight like that but he may have to put that A side thing to one side and go 50/50.

    Course it’s fair,really winds me up all that bickering when they talking about tens of millions,just split it down the middle and be happy you’re in a sport that pays the sort of money most folk can only dream of.

    If Fury wins then I fully expect Joshua to try and fight Fury next. Tough fight though always said movement was Joshua's weakness, he doesn't have the work rate to try and overwhelm Fury so he'll need to try and slowly break him down slowly. If Joshua wins it will likely be late while behind on the scorecards, though I think Fury winning a decision is more likely.

    First offer was speculated to be either 70/30 or 65/35. Hearn confirmed the second offer two both Fury and Wilder was 60/40.

    50/50 even if Fury beats Wilder then Fury is getting away with daylight robbery seeing that he has a fraction of the fan base and that he sells a fraction of what AJ.

    AJ cant force Fury and Wilder to fight him if their not interested unfortunately.

    I think it will be closer on the cards than some think,sure Joshua could struggle with the movement but I don’t see him losing round after round like Wilder and being bereft of ideas.
    I think Joshua is better boxer than he’s given credit for.

    It is unfortunate that this crop have sussed out that he’s the big pay day and that it can look bad on AJs part,seriously think AJs gonna have to ditch the A side thing if he wants them that badly as he’s run out of opponents.

    Yep it’s disgusting and the funniest thing about them not wanting to be seen to give in to the b side guys is that us,the fans,couldn’t give a damn about how they look.
