    I’m very confused about this announcement as I was led to believe by a couple of genius on here that AJ and Hearn were ducking the fight.

    Hopefully someone can clarify this for me.

    Boxing is absolutely full of hypocrites. Give me a name and I’ll give you an example.

    I think he's been consistent from day one. Not much has changed. Not enough to merit a drastic realisation. What would make someone dislike him now, when they liked him after he defeated Klitschko?

    If they’re looking to do it June / July, I can’t see the first one being in the UK unless they have a cast iron guarantee they’ll have fans in. I think America / Middle East with a rematch in the U.K.

    Brilliant news!

    My optimism about this fight actually happening was starting to fade.

    I just think people got caught up in all the hype then saw through the bull**** happens all the time, not just in boxing. Still has plenty of tribalistic fans.

    The funny thing is it’ll only be the fans that shed any tears. The loser will look at their bank balance and feel like a winner.

    I still have my reservations about how "done" this deal is. If they don't have a venue then they can't have an actual figure in terms of how much money is in the pot. Both sides will still need to be happy before we get this fight. Today is still positive news but I just get the feeling we're still short of the fight being done and dusted when the date and venue are still TBA.

    If either do a proper number on the other ie Fury against Wilder 2 then I cant see the rematch being worth it. This is all about the first fight imo.
