    Look forward to another fight against a top prospect like Otto Wallin or Francesco Pianeta.

    If Joshua had got on and just fought Usyk in July then it could have happened this year.

    Fury should probably just fight that UFC guy in December to stay busy and then MAYBE we can think about Fury V Joshua next April or May. Unless of course Joshua just skips Usyk in which case we can have it in December.

    Yup, considering Joshua publicly declared he wanted to fight early 2021 (post Pulev fight interview) we should have been able to get the undisputed at some point this year.

    But I would personally prefer to see the winner of Fury/wilder give Whyte his long overdue shot, if they cant fight Joshua until 2022.

    Arum wants to squander Fury like he does all his other fighters

    lol

    How about this, if Fury had just fought Wilder earlier this year instead of trying to move on for several months ever since last October, not even doing anything like a tune up fight in the process then it could have happened this year. The WBO literally allowed Aj to fight Fury for undisputed during negotiations and gave him the opportunity to bypass his mandatory Usyk for this superfight and had Fury already delt with one trick pony then it likely would would have happened this year. Even if you say the Wilder/Fury fight would get pushed back like it did multiple times then it would still probably have happened this summer, probably even before July

    This isn't on Aj's team, it's on Fury's. There's no way around it.

    Can't believe that some people are blaming Joshua for this not happening.
