    Will you also retire the Fury CV on the forum?

    Aug is perfect for Fury v Joshua - if it does not happen soon we are looking at another pointless Khan v Brook type fight should it ever happen

    Would have been stopped very early in the fight if the other way round.

    True, much like Khan v Barrera

    It will be Wallin.

    Good choice.

    AJ should book a fight for the start of May. Problem is Hearn will want a big PPV so be end of June earliest.

    They’ve said end of may start of June apparently.

    Ortiz had previously turned down an aj fight so can’t see it being him.

    Wilder won’t take it so it won’t be him.

    Thought Joyce was in talks with Parker over a fight already? So not sure it will be either of them.

    A KO victory over Wallin pushes the narrative of AJ being better than Fury so that’s the fight I imagine we will get.

    Would love to see AJ in with Wilder or Joyce but I doubt either will happen. Could see the Wallin fight happening and I'd certainly tune in and watch it for free.

    If Joshua wants an interim fight he should have a third scrap with Ruiz. There’s logic behind it with the score currently tied at 1-1 and the first fight was fan friendly. With AJ’s sound bites indicating that he wants to come out and brawl a third fight could be fireworks.

    This would be great and I would tune in for it. I'm no massive fan but I would love to see Joshua get a little wreckless and just go for it, really put it on someone and risk a gas out and getting caught for the potential spectacular KO that he has in him.

    A rematch with Dr Legg from Eastenders at Wembley stadium again is more likely than a live opponent such as Wilder, Joyce or Fury

    Wallin is such an obvious choice. He’s not a serious threat, in my opinion anyway, and it’s an opportunity to look good against someone Fury struggled with. I would expect him to get nice confidence boosting KO.
