    Damn, for that coin, I'd step aside as well.

    If true, it is the most sensible and logical course of action.

    Step aside money

    Tune up

    Rematch or WBC challenge guaranteed in contract

    3 sources of guaranteed income rather than straight rematch only to get banged out again and kiss any more big money days good bye.

    Well he's asking for $10m. Not sure if he'll get that. All depends on how much Fury vs AJ can make in a post-Covid world....

    "Makes demands" doesn't mean "has agreed"

    Smart of him. If Joshua knocks out fury Wilder would have a decent shot at becoming undisputed without having to fight fury again

    Interesting scenario if it were to happen like that the fans would then demand the trilogy with Fury and Joshua getting a rematch against the winner.

    Only then once the round robin is complete and the dust settles can anyone claim undisputed.

    I've always thought the third fight would not take place, even before covid. Taking step aside and a fight with the winner between Fury vs AJ is the wisest business decision. But Hearn will have to be able to sell tickets as well as PPV to generate the kind of revenue which would justify $10m...

    this fight should be able to generate huge money especially if it happens in saudi arabia

    I hope so but the next problem is Usyk and his WBO mandatory. Does Usyk step aside too for some €€€€ or does AJ vacate the WBO?
