Bob Arum proposes an idea to Joshua/Hearn to avoid the Usyk rematch and fight Tyson Fury

Get it done before the fight is only good enough for the O2 Arena.

 

that old geriatric **** is in damage control mode.

Lied, lied, lied and cost himself, and his fighter the chance at a 50 million dollar victory. He wants AJ to duck Usyk so his gravy boat comes back. But hey…Fury didn’t need Joshua, huh?

I can’t wait until he’s gone from boxing altogether.

 

Should have taken it when you had the chance, Bobby.

Now there is a genuine chance that Wilder could chin Fury with a single punch and both Hearn and Arum lose out on their promoter fee cuts that that Saudis were willing to pay for



At least Eddie Hearn can still fill out arenas for Joshua comeback version 3.0 as the Brits are easily pleased but cynical Americans??? Please!!!

 

Stupid ******* just said that he does not think the fight will ever happen, and now he is trying to make it.

And why make the fight now? Who wants to see Fury fight a Joshua with two losses in four fights?

Let AJ win a couple first and add some luster.

 

AJ is currently irrelevant, he needs to avenge his loss first.

 

fight blows up in the UK even if AJ lost an arm and a leg against usyk.

 

he's not irrelevant, he just doesn't hold the cards in negotiations

 

Fury can't fight in the UK. UKAD.

 

In other words irrelevant, AJ is coming of from a loss, he has no belts and has nothing to lose. Fury would have nothing to gain and everything to lose.

 

...which is why he doesn't hold any cards in negotiations.
UK public would still salivate at fury v AJ

 

bummer...

 

It doesn’t matter, AJ needs to earn his right to step inside the same ring as the Gypsy King!

 

i don't think that's necessarily true, but he will lose millions at the negotiation table.

 

I'd like to see AJ/Fury or even AJ/Wilder fight. As I mentioned before, fans can't have it both ways. Complain the best aren't fighting the best, but when a fighter fights a good opponent and loses, he doesn't get a chance to fight another top opponent because fans aren't interested anymore. People actually saying AJ should retire if he loses the rematch to Usyk. With that kind of fan support, kinda makes sense why fighters cling to their 0 so desperately.
Fans are quick to call BS on weak PPV cards or circus shows, quick to call out guys that cherry pick or call out an exposed "hype job". The reality is, the fans are the ones that ruined boxing. Criticizing a fighter when he steps up and loses. Buying these weak PPV cards(I'm guilty) when we know they're garbage. If fans didn't cut so deep when a fighter tries and loses and stop paying for these weak PPV, I'm sure we'd get better quality fights.
