    "December 13th 2015:

    “I’d fight Tyson Fury now but it would be a hard fight. When I’m ready, I’ll make it an easy fight. But I’d fight Dillian again. He might give me a few more rounds. That’s what I need.” - Anthony Joshua

    Joshua didn't feel confident of beating Fury in 2016+, saying he wasn't ready and wanted to rematch Whyte instead."

    Explain this, clown.

    "Price, Ustinov"

    Joshua could have fought Price or Jennings instead of Eric Molina but Price KO'd Joshie in sparring and Jennings was a decent boxer.

    Fury fought champ Wlad in Germany, Wilder x3 in America and Usyk x2.

    Joshua quit against Ruiz, got plastered by Dubois and ducked the rematch, didn't dethrone Wlad, and never fought Wilder. He did fight Jake Paul though!

    The fact AJ hasn't had an activity bout knowing Netflix and turki want to him fight Fury next says everything...

    A big useless bodybuilding bum.

    I expect we'll get Fury Usyk 3 and AJ Wilder given this...

    Interesting that Fury says he's only interested in AJ or nothing..I thought he'd still want to pursue Usyk but maybe he realizes it's a fight he can only win by KO which is never going to happen.

    Fury never had power he has always been a feather fisted big oaf with horrible genetics.

    Clearly you made an alt, or more likely several alts, because you lost credibility here on your original account with unhinged weirdo posts such as this. I don't engage with obvious alts, much less ones that say "BWAHAHA" and "I smoked you" on an internet forum.

    Good luck with your next account.

    I get the impression neither wants to be controlled by the other

    Tyson won 3 world titles against W Klitschko, but didn't rematch and retired
    Joshua would likely have been a title challenger, I would think had Fury not retired.

    2018
    Joshua was a unified champion holding WBO, WBA, IBF titles who had won unifications
    Fury was a former champion with no defences

    I read on this link that Fury wanted a 50/50 split

    [url]https://www.espn.co.uk/boxing/story...ists-anthony-joshua-vs-tyson-fury-happen-2018[/url]

    At this time Joshua was imo the bigger name at this time

    Things shift a bit.
    Fury draws with Wilder in another title attempt and is now 1-0-1 in title fights
    Joshua still an undefeated unified champion and 7-0-0 in world title fights

    Things shift a bit more
    Joshua loses to Ruiz
    Neither hold a world title
    Joshua wins back the 3 world titles he lost
    Fury beats Wilder and between them they hold all of the titles


    June 2020
    [url]https://www.skysports.com/boxing/ne...or-a-two-fight-deal-says-promoter-eddie-hearn[/url]

    It looks in the link that potentially 2 fights agreed
    Covid was a factor in much of the world


    Joshua loses to Usyk
    Fury ended up facing Wilder again

    Now only Fury holds a world title and things have shifted a bit more where Fury would likely be able to call for the higher purse as the defending champion

    Fury defends against Whyte and retires

    Joshua loses the return to Usyk
    Fury gives Joshua a quick call out after Joshua's second loss to Usyk, though it seemed to be a quick callout with timelines and deadlines

    Fury comes back and faces Chisora and Ngannou
    Loses twice to Usyk and retires again
    Joshua didn't retire and lost to Dubois

    I guess now neither really holds much above the other but I get the impression both want to be the A side


    All of the above is pretty much how I recall it and probably not correct and certainly with gaps that I have missed

    Yeah, go run and hide. You're like the "everyone who I don't like is Hitler" meme except calling people alts.

    I've spent the past decade posting on the boxing subreddit instead of over here. If you had any legitimate argument at all, you'd hit back with it instead of crying like a little girl and running away.

    It's so funny how Fury fans are just like their mongoloid hero. Whenever the going gets tough, Fury makes a bunch of excuses and disappears into retirement. Dick Turpin wore a mask!

    One statement to a reporter means next to nothing. We've got Fury shutting down actual contract negotiations like a spoiled child to avoid making the fight and you're bringing up a throwaway line to a reporter from 2015. LOL. Also, I know you ain't too bright, but what was happening with Tyson Fury in 2016? Rub your two tiny brain cells together, try and kindle a spark, and give it a think. Here, lemme help you. Boar meat! Agh, me mental health! So yeah, I'm sure AJ was terrified of a morbidly obese Fury who was on a three year vacation to avoid a decade long drug ban.

    And yeah, I'm not going to read that War and Peace level diatribe of insanity you posted back in '22 where the main takeaway from everyone in the thread is that you're an unemployed idiot who lives at home with his parents and someone who has made a zillion alts to defend Fury. Absolutely tracks, though, because to be a fan of Fury you have to kinda be a moron and a loser. See, that's where Tyson Fury screwed up the most. He should have been doing just like the guy he stole his shtick from, Donald Trump, and selling merchandise. Get all you goofs to buy hats, flags, banners, etc. He'd have made a killing!

    Probably better than Anthony ''philospher'' Joshua was so arrogant he believed he could outbox Oleksander Uysk, and spends hours studying youtube videos titled ''how to look dangerous'' the mentally fragile AJ showed his true character in the press conference wth Wallin, struggling to come to terms with the fact that the likes of Jarrell Millar and Deontay Wilder were not terrified of the man who did a full two weeks in HMYOI Reading.

    Also lets not forget how they flew the Bronze Bomber to do commentary on the Wlad fight, but after he was dropped twice, the fight strangely never happened, if Fury is a fraud then AJ is a close second.

    It's not "one statement to a reporter"; it's a consistent, decade-long pattern of Joshua ducking Fury and Wilder.

    Now that Wilder's 41, maybe he passes the Matchroom risk-reward calculation. Because Anthonia "Jake Paul" Joshua clearly has no interest in fighting Fury next.

    Keep blowing that low IQ bouncer Gasman.

    Ok, buddy. Sure.

    I'm not even an AJ fan. I just have some respect for him because he actually fought some real competition in his career, didn't retire every other fight, and could own up to being beaten. Your narcissistic bloated bag of milk could never do that.
