    Hearn seem insistent now that Fury either fights Whyte to then fight AJ, or Fury drops the belt Whyte then becomes Email champ and fights AJ for undisputed......
    But he never seems to mention the AJ has to fight Usyk as the WBO mandatory.
    Its a joke that we are going to be robbed of Fury AJ undisputed and get served up AJ Whyte 2 for undisputed.
    Why are no interviewers bringing the Usyk mandatory question up when Hearn is telling them Fury has to fight Whyte before AJ but then saying if Whyte has the WBC he can have the AJ fight straight away?
    We all know Fury will drop the belt before giving in to Hearn and if that is the case AJ and Hearn will then rubbish the lineal and Ring belt and duck Fury while claiming to be No1 and fighting guys like Micheal Hunter and Kuzmin.

    In fairness, in his most recent IFL interview, Hearn does mention that the Usyk situation could scupper any undisputed fight.

    If he fights Whyte and Fury is promoted to franchise champ he wont be undisputed, It would be the equivalent of him fighting Manuel Charr for the WBA regular.

    Joshua has to fight Pulev (IBF mando) and Usyk (WBO mando) in that order. It’s already been agreed and camp Usyk have repeated and categorically stated that they will not step aside to allow undisputed to happen. Hearn has acknowledged this. However, Fury has to fight Wilder (contracted) and Whyte (WBC mando) in that order, thems the rules!!!!! The problem is the WBC (no shock) elevating Fury to franchise champion and then gifting Whyte the WBC regular belt. Undisputed is, and always was the 3rd fight down the line for both AJ and Fury if they keep winning.

    But then again, as always, money trumps all with these organisations. There is zero integrity when it comes to any of these rules.

    Enough Saudi money drops in the right pockets, and AJ vs Fury happens next. Looking like the main players are happy for that fight to 'marinate', so likely we'll see some mandos first.

    Hearn saying today that they will drop the IBF belt if Fury v AJ can be made for December. If not, it’s AJ v Pulev at the O2 on 12/12

    BRUTHA USKY beats the chinny robot easily now. Picks him apart and makes him quit on his stool through exhaustion. Joshua ain’t got the gastank to be schooled for twelve rounds solid by a BRUTHA from behind the iron curtain.

    With the resurgence of Covid 19 soon to explode because of mass demonstrations, pubs/clubs and holidays, a UK Arena with more than 10% of seats occupied by fans appears a long time away. Hopefully this year but cannot see it.

    Could be a straight fight between BT Studios and Sly Sports Studios for ring bragging rights.

    Saudi may clean up for the big cards over the next year.
