    Not particularly interested.
    Depends what else is happening that night.
    I doubt it happens.

    Of course.
    Actually, putting the past aside, this fight makes the most sense right now. Most people think Fury will easily crush AJ. The fight itself could either surprise positively with a more heated rivalry (which I personally believe) or go as everyone expects.
    And if it gets more heated, they could always make it a two-fight or even a trilogy. And all this without either man being at the top.

    If Fury doesn't take it now, it will only mean that the guy is truly terrified of Antek.
    This is the best thing that can happen to them in boxing right now. A gift from heaven.

    Anyone who says no is lying. They will engage in posts on here. They will fall for the hype. They will watch it. They will moan about the outcome.

    Of course, for the story and the clash of characters. Press Conference alone would be worth the money.
    Some fights need to happen, even if a tad late.

    Yes. Why wouldnt I.


    Ive always favored AJ to win that one, but I do see how Fury could be a foil to AJ in there and make him unravel.

    I think its an interesting matchup between 2 of the big 3 of the past era, and while both past it, I think they have enough left that it is still substantially meaningful to boxing and to their legacies.

    A guy that got clattered around by Dubois and went 6 rounds with Jake Paul… against a retired Fury. Nah

    Maybe AJ should try to avenge his loss to Dubois first.

    Not after that shocking performance. Both need to go out and actually get an impressive win first

    Fury will jump at the opportunity after watching what happened today.

    One of them should try and pick up the British title first, so this fight can actually have some meaning.

    Hell yeah, let's go for it. I believe that both these guys will pick themselves up for their big showdown.

    AJ should not fight anybody else for now and keep calling out Fury.

    Its not what it would have been a few years ago but I still think it is a good fight, still somewhat legacy defining, and serves as closure for their era

    This!

    I'd like to say I'd pass, but it still has enough interest in it at this stage even though it's at least 5 years late - like Floyd Manny in some ways

    Why the hell not? What else do we have to look forward to in HW fights next year? Usyk v. Wilder??

    I’d watch it if I didn’t have to pay for it. Don’t think the press conference would be nearly as interesting now though. Before it was two world beaters, in their prime, what can they say now?
    ‘we’re both actually a bit **** after all, but let’s do it anyway’ anything else just sounds hollow now
