    Jesus, this is tiring.

    Chisora should get Parker
    Whyte should get Povetkin
    Ortiz should get Pulev
    AJ faces the winner of Fury/Wilder

    AJ would still maul Whyte just based on styles. Chisora gets sparked by AJ for the same reason. Neither are smart enough for AJ and are too tough for this own good which would be their undoing against Joshua.

    This "in-house/avoid Fury & Wilder forever" merry go-round that Hearn is making happen for AJ's belts is a joke.

    Wilder/Fury winner is THE ONLY FIGHT THAT MATTERS for AJ.

    Whyte has more than earned a rematch, the first fight was entertaining and it's a big money fight.

    I agree Joshua v Wilder (not going to discuss fury as he has zero chance of beating wilder) is what we all want to see But Wilder is deluded with the money he thinks he should get and Hearns and Joshua dislike him and his team and don't want to overpay.

    Imo they should offer 60/40 for April in Wembley and if wilder says no that's the end of it.

    Also they have never avoided Fury lol.

    Yes but unfortunately Wilder's team aren't interested in the fight and unless Hearn gives in to the ludicrous demands then I can't see this fight happening.

    Otherwise Wilder will continue to beat out of shape inactive fighters (it would mostly likely be Breazeale after Fury).Whilst AJ will continue to beat the best in the division (will probably be two of Whyte, Uysk, Miller or Pulev next year).

    He doesn’t have ‘zero chance’ and you know that really. You obviously are a big fan of AJ and matchroom collectively which is fine.

    The impression I get from your posts is that the two boxers you see as the biggest threats to AJ are Fury and Usyk. As a result, you keep repeating the same opinions over and over.. ‘Fury is shot, not the same since his comeback.. Usyk is too small and Bellew might beat him anyway.’

    Both of those are valid opinions, and even as a Fury fan I think the Wilder fight is too early. However both Usyk and Fury are very gifted. More so than any of the Matchroom heavyweights and the reality is that both have a good chance of beating AJ and Wilder.

    A Fury vs AJ showdown would be amazing for British boxing and a very good fight. I don’t particularly like Joshua as a person, but I’m not one-eyed enough to be unable to admit he’s a good fighter who’s improved hugely in the last few years.

    No I think Wider is the biggest threat to Joshua and a quite serious threat at that, I think that's 50/50

    I don't dislike Fury but I genuinley think he's physically done at the elite level and would be shocked of he won

    For the record id like him to win as AJ vs Fury would be amazing for british boxing.

    As for Usyk well we really don't know how he will be at heavyweight but he's being championed by the white supremacists (if you ever go into the lounge you will see that) and so a large amount of his fanbase disgust me which is why I have a dislike of him.

    Now that Haye is helping Derek I think they have a very good chance of beating whyte this time.

    We could end up with chisora vs AJ instead

    If it’s not Fury or Wilder then the rest of the top 20 are

    Povetkin- just KO’d him.
    Whyte - everyone moans about
    Pulev - unimpressive opponent.
    Miller - everyone will moan
    Ortiz - old and isn’t ranked high enough with any organisation other than the WBC
    Breazeale - KO’d him
    Kownacki - meh.

    11 Parker - comprehensively defeated him.
    12 Chisora - uninspiring.
    Jennings, Hammer, Huck no comment required
    Martin - KO’d him.

    Hrgovic not ready and not know.
    Helenius...
    Andy Ruiz...
    Kabayel - not good enough.

    So basically if it’s not Fury or Wilder then the majority won’t be happy.

    Doesn’t he have to defend the ibf against pulev though? Would that be by April or does he have longer for that?

    I think it’s 12 months. They’ll have the Whyte fight in April then they’ll chase the unification for September or even the Miller “WBA” unification and will get a pass on Pulev for 12 months or so.

    You can get 4/6 on wilder beating fury. If fury has zero chance how much DEBT are you going to rack up to bet on this 100% certain outcome? As you’ll be set for life depending on how much easy credit you can get your hands on.

    Ps don’t forget to hedge the draw
    Pps what do you do if fury wins you muppet

    AJ's next 3 fights will be Whyte-Pulev-Miller. They aren't fighting Wilder anytime soon.

    Agreed.

    Tyson looks great in camp, but he has looked terrible against his last two opponents, and they were absolute nobodies. Blown up CW's.

    He didn't have the confidence to go in there with a top 20 HW, despite harping on about the Wlad win.
    He is STILL losing weight!
    He and his team clearly know that he just won't repeat that performance again. I mean, he ducked Price ffs before that!

    Add to that that Wilder just laid out a boogeyman in Ortiz and is in the form of his life AND getting better. Sometimes the best style to beat a pure boxer is to be wild and unpredictable. Wilder brings a different kind of intensity and athleticism that Fury hasn't seen. That will be the big difference come fight night.

    Looking good in camp and pads and sparring and losing lots of lbs means nothing unless you’ve had fights to prove it’s working.

    Against Pizzanetta it was obviously not working so for me I think Fury will taste defeat for the first time and maybe by KO.

    This has to be a money thing in my eyes cos sense would tell you he should have had a couple more fights and he would of got his big money fight anyway.

    He’s funny as Fooke though!! Boxing will miss him.

    I love how people think they actually know the negotiations because they saw a 20 minute video with Eddie Hearn.
