    Rumours swirling that AJ/Wilder will be on, a superfight worth over $200m, while Fury fights Usyk

    Still want to see this fight. Even if no Belt is on the line.

    If Fury does retire, maybe Wilder Joshua for Vacant Belt. It has to be after Helenius Wilder.

    Maybe AJ needs a pickover fight in the meantime.

    After that obviously, he's fighting in October, so AJ/Wilder could be lined up for next spring/summer

    Fury/Usyk and AJ/Wilder in the UK on one card would be probably the biggest EVENT ever!

    Ouch, three losses in a row will not look good for AJ, especially when the last one will be a brutal KO...

    Never going to happen. Too much money to lose.

    Probably yeah especially with 4 or 5 different promoters involved (Arum, Warren, Hearn, Usyk and PBC)

    Joshua falls to 24-3.

    Which British Super Heavyweight Gold Medalist will finish his career with a better won-loss record?

    Joshua or Audley Harrison (31-7)?

    If Joshua fights Wilder next ... he'll quickly find himself 24-4.

    It will never happen unfortunately, because Joshua knows he would be out cold if he ever stepped in the ring with Wilder.

    I am afraid that AJ might be done mentally. It seems like he’s thinking too much in the ring and isn’t able to let his hands go and turn up the pressure when needed.

    Right. I'd expect Joshua's operation to keep tabs on the Fury-Usyk situation and look to get a highlight reel bounceback win or two that will allow them to sell Fury-Joshua as a viable proposition after Fury emerges with the Undisputed crown. That's the most lucrative and creditable route he has left. Wilder would represent a huge threat to such a plan, though I do love the matchup.

    Maybe they take the risk, but I can't see it.

    AJ is about to take a mental break. He's losing it. He might retire ala Riddick Bowe
