    Credit to AJ agreeing to fight at short notice and to 40% split and 50% rematch split should he win.

    Surley Fury won't come out with anymore excuses? Come on Fury, agree!

    He’ll either try and change it to the week before or say Joshua didn’t meet his deadline the other day.

    But everyone said Fury was ducking (even though he made the offer)?

    I don't get it.

    I think actually both fighters want it and hopefully it’ll be fairly straightforward. The issue will be the broadcasters.

    In fairness to Fury, he did specify the negotiations had been paused due to the Queen’s death.

    Let’s hope the contract offer is in good faith and it actually gets made.

    Will this actually take place in Cardiff ? Both fighters would be losing a lot of money by not fighting in the Middle East. Also, what will be the broadcast arrangements ? BT and DAZN in the UK, and then ESPN and DAZN in the US ?

    Wasn't prepared to give a full camp despite having the December 17th date booked and appear to willing to fight Chisora then but not AJ. Also having not agreeing to 40% rematch split if he should lose and choose to activate the rematch (which is fair).

    Fury said he'd do this fight for free so he doesn't care about the money.

    Well let’s see if the fight gets made because if it doesn’t now, it isn’t down to AJ

    Fury: "The bodybuilder, the sh*thouse dosser AJ used the wrong colour ink on the contract. Fight’s off!".

    Oh yeah he'd be happier working on a farm in Salford than fighting for hundreds of millions of pounds. He also wanted £500 million to fight Usyk which he was going to donate to charity.

    This could work out well for Joshua because there's no pressure on him in the fight and if he loses, if he has the hunger to rebuild there will be no Fury and Usyk who will both retire when they fight each other.

    We've gone through this. When you're corrected you go in to hiding and then parrot the same nonsense later on.

    The 17th was booked for Usyk.
    I have no idea what your second point even means. He IS fighting AJ.
    The split on the rematch is irrelevant. That's business. If AJ doesn't like it then say no. Also it's 50-50, so again Fury has made another concession.
    Joshua is getting a full camp. The fight is taking place 14 weeks after his last fight. Tyson Fury fought Wilder on shorter notice in much worse physical and mental condition.
