    Fury for me but I like them both. Fury is the favorite. Joshua will have to be the best he has ever been and bring something new...but it would not entirely surprise me if he did.

    Two gamers. We are lucky we have this fight.

    Agreed. I'd probably say it's 60/40 in Fury's favour but it'll be very close.

    Fury is definitely the more talented and always seems to rise to the occasion but Joshua is incredibly strong and has great combinations and finishing ability.

    Tactically it'll be fascinating.

    AJ has more belts, Fury lost to John McDermott, drew with Wilder and also once punched himself in the face
    Both AJ and Fury are pretty unlikeable people though

    AJ. Better and much deeper resume overall. Fury hasn't beaten a top fighter with a proven resume since coming out of retirement and fought very low level guys.

    I also think stylistically AJ is all wrong for Fury in a potential fight.

    I know a lot people will disagree with opinion and it goes against the majority on here but hopefully early to mid next year we will get the answer, which is what we all want.

    Neither, because neither have fought each other, but if I had to choose, I'd say AJ as he has more belts.

    That's what makes it fascinating. You'd assume that Fury would pull a Wlad performance against AJ as he couldn't physically bully him like he could with Wilder.

    I wouldn't be surprised if he does the opposite and tries to walk him down, that would be such a spectacle.

    We all know you bang on about resumes, but the interesting part here is AJ being 'stylistically all wrong' for Fury. What do you mean by that?

    I kind of align with you - I wouldn't go as far as saying that AJ is "ALL wrong" as I think Fury is the favourite, but AJ definitely has attributes and strengths that Fury will find difficult. What's your thinking behind "ALL wrong"?

    Love all these people who say Deontay was a fraud but then use that victory to propel Furys status.

    Cant have it both ways. If Deontays a fraud, then AJ clearly has the better resume.

    As for style matchup, Fury certainly looked impressive in his last outing but body of work I'm going with AJ
