    AJ Vs Wilder Vs Usyk for supremacy. The era of Fury has ended. All of them have a chance now.

    I suspect Usyk will defend against Joyce whilst AJ flaps in the wind and Wilders management falters looking for an easy WBC belt.

    Meanwhile King Fury sits back with his feet up waiting for his Foreman timing window

    The weird part is if AJ's punchers chance comes off next week and then people claim Fury is ducking AJ. :rolleye:

    Wilder would put AJ Into Orbit.

    WBC should be for Joyce Parker then winner fights winner of AJ Usyk 2 for undisputed glory.

    Or WBC adds their belt and makes AJ Usyk 2 Undisputed.

    Tyson Fury, the man that never had the stones to fight Usyk. Had to retire from boxing, twice, before facing him.
    Thats your greatest heavyweight Brits? Youre in trouble my friends!

    This man is not retired. He will keep fighting in sanctioned bouts, you can bet on that. You think Sulaiman while wearing a Gypsy King hat can be trusted? This holds about as much weight as Floyd's retirements. There is always a "comeback" when this much money is to be made.

    It is all about marketing.

    Good.

    Let's hope he does not hold the belt hostage and someone else can fight for it.

    We need and want undisputed ASAP.

    I think Sulaiman said a few months back that should Fury retire he would look to make the winner of Ortiz v Ruiz Jr. face off against Wilder for the vacant WBC title

    lol

    I still ain't buying it, unless Fury literally has some health concern we are unaware of -there is no way he doesn't fight the winner of AJ Usyk.

    This is likely all marketing nonsense, I mean he's wearing a ****ing Tyson Fury cap ffs....

    Good, now make the fight between top contenders for that vacant belt.

    Joyce would be good WBC champion.

    This really wouldn't be fair.
    We haven't had an undisputed world champion for 23 years. By Lennox Lewis.
    Nor does Usyk deserve to be called the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world with his victory against AJ 2.

    AJ in particular does not deserve to be called the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world; by winning the rematch with Usyk (he would only return the belts he lost).
    Wilder and Fury were there all the time; why didn't he fight for the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world?

    To become after 23 years the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world in that way.

    Tough ****, if this crazy man Fury is really going to retire and not fight, that's how it's gonna be.
