    Joshua agrees to the rematch with Dubois

    Fury then beats Usyk

    Joshua then pulls out of the Dubois rematch

    Fury v Joshua Wembley June 2025

    If Fury beats Usyk then they will enter a trilogy...if they both don't decide to retire hand in hand.

    AJ doesn't get a magic ticket to Fury & all the belts by pulling out of a rematch

    Bakole, Zhang & Dubious are in line before AJ.

    The money and business used to dictate fights so it was possible for the bum bodybuilder to keep getting gift opportunities but not anymore.

    Yes that's a possibility, however we both know that if Fury got offered 75m for the Usyk trilogy but 150m to fight Joshua on the back of a huge confidence boost, then he fights Joshua.

    Fury v Joshua is the fight Turki Alalshiyk wants to make most. That is the fight that will me made.

    Joshua gets the chance to be 3 time champion regardless.

    What's more, Joshua get the chance to become THEE MAN for the 1st time in his entire career as the lineal champion.

    Here's my prediction, Usyk KO's Fury, Joshua then ducks the Dubois rematch (which he shouldn't pursue to begin with), then fights Fury in a dual cash out retirement match for both of them.

    Or, both Fury and AJ go right into a fight with each other instead of taking more ****ing rematches, Usyk fights Parker, Dubois fights Zhang and then the winner of that fights the winner of Bakole-Kabayel. Or hell, any mix of those four would be fine.

    Wishful thinking on the part of a guy who just wants to see these guys in the ring with each other instead of more time being eaten up with rematches, especially the unncessary Dubois-AJ one. But I can dream :lol:

    Exactly, they should put a ban on contractual rematches for the benefit of boxing.

    Wouldn't shock me in the least if the Dubois fight didn't happen.

    Joshua could very easily withdraw from the fight with Dubois because he is too greedy to miss a possible opportunity to fight Fury, after Fury decides that this fight could happen he himself withdraws from that fight with various unjustified reasons.

    I think they are 100 percent going to agree to it and then it wont happen regardless of whatever else happens in the division.

    If Joshua does end up doing it, fair play to him

    Deep down Joshua must know he has a much better chance of beating Fury than he does Dubois.

    This is my prediction. AJ knocks out Dubious. Fury defeats Usyk. Then AJ agrees a super-uber-mega-hyper fight vs the winner of the Fury vs Usyk trilogy, but he ****s up in the warm up fight waiting for the final trilogy match and the fight never happens. Everyboy and his dog laughs at AJ because he's a disgrace. The end.

    Joshua has a one way rematch with Dubois he either takes it or he does’nt ! As for Fury and Usyk at this time Joshua has nothing to do with them,however money does talk but as already mentioned there are more deserving fighters to get the opportunity. Dubois Parker Kabayel and Zhang are more deserving to fight the Fury v Usyk winner . The Dubois rematch could also make Usyk two time Undisputed,should Fury win a Dubois fight could make him Undisputed . Should Joshua rematch Dubois and win then his options could not get any better but as it stands now like mentioned there are more deserving fighters .

    Here’s my multi bet prediction (When in Rome…), Usyk defeats Fury, then Tyson retires or Fury pulls out and then retires.

    Dubois flattens AJ for a second time. AJ has his usual cry baby sook then retires.

    Usyk then rematches Dubois and defeats him for a second time but in a somewhat harder and more competitive fight than the first one.

    Post fight, Usyk cites the Dubois rematch as his toughest fight ever and labels Daniel as the future of boxing after Olek retires.

    Usyk adds that he will examine his options before considering his next step but doesn’t discount the possibility of retiring himself.

    Agree with this.

    On balance I think it’s more likely Fury pulls out of December 21st and then retires though.

    He probably only goes through with it to take his L. I don’t think he believes he can win a rematch.

    I also don’t think Joshua thinks he can win a rematch against Dubois.

    Fury has more chances against Usyk than Joshua has against Dubois though.
