Doesn't want any of Fury I think he might actually break down and cry in public not behind the scenes like Wilder did. This content is protected Big Poppa is coming for him
"It's not about the opponent it's about the legacy and the belt" What is this BIG STIFF IDIOT talking about? Belts hold no value. The opponent is where the value lies. That is where legacy is built. Do people remember - Muhammad Ali Vs Joe Frazier & Muhammad Ali Vs Goerge Foreman OR do they remember Muhammad Ali Vs WBO world champion? or do they remember Lennox Lewis Vs WBC world champion? NO "I'm not in a fight with anyone but myself" Yeah it sounds like it, them mental cracks are huge. You could fit Andy Ruiz in them. Again AJ trying to put forward the case that he has only been boxing for a couple of years and portraying that he is only a baby compared to Fury. If you runs the stats though AJ actually is equally experienced a Fury in terms of ring time. 10+ years but wants to portray himself as the new kid. He didn't say that rubbish when he fought Wlad did he? AJ knows he is a beat man. He knows Fury is that giant mountain that requires more than he has in his tank to climb.
And so it begins.. Firstly.. Hearn Saying "financially things are very tough" but Hearn and Sky charges average fans £25 for a awful PPV card.. the absolute craphousery involved in that statement. Secondly the way he talks about Usyk, the dismissive nature, you wouldn't believe he actually works with Usyk, surely Usyk has a case to get out of any contract with Hearn, it's just ridiculous. Hearn says with or without belts the Fury Vs AJ fight happens and now all of sudden "AJ doesn't think it happens next" and in a way saying AJ won't vacate and will happily fight Usyk if Fury doesn't happen. Hearn is a clown, AJ is a bigger clown, now there are "issues", broadcasters, where the fight takes place.. last week these issues were not a problem. AJ and Hearn don't want Fury next, this is just groundwork for when they do the off, they'll point back to these interviews saying "we told you about the problems a while ago".
I fully agree with one of your posts once, lol. Belts are way overrated, and Klitschko/Fury have proven that. The Four Belt Era has destroyed the worth of any individual belt.
“Who ever has the belt I want to fight them. If that is Tyson Fury then let it be a Tyson Fury.” What you on about miniq.? I can give you plenty of instances where Fury said he’d never fight Joshua and then say AJ is the one ducking. Total fraud.
Eddie Hearn manages to tell us that the belts are really important to Joshua BUT that the fight could happen with no belts. Like we are supposed to believe that. Joshua really doesn't want to vacate the WBO, but he might just vacate them all if the governing bodies get greedy .... ? WTF is Hearn trying to say there ?
He called out Fury after the Wilder rematch as well: https://www.bravose.com/blog/28-lets-get-it-on---anthony-joshua-calls-out-tyson-fury You missed that one. I think it's pretty clear they both want the fight and would have made it earlier this year if possible. I don't really understand all this shouting about ducking and whatnot. This need to believe the worst of fighters all the time, even a fighter who has consistently aimed to unify, is a bit strange I think. But, hey, it's what General is about, I guess.
AJ so obviously does not want to fight Tyson. I don't know what he is scared of more though, the press conferences or the fight itself haha.
Joshua should make the fights with Fury before he gets smoked again. Another embarrassing loss & the 2 fight deal won't be worth anywhere near $500 million. It's highly unlikely he beats Fury but at least he'd have made the best fight out there & walked off with a big bag of money. Any more insignificant fights instead & he may as well enter the ring wearing a red wig, red nose & big floppy shoes.
Joshua's known about the Pulev fight all this year, so him calling out Fury in March means little. It was also precisely when the world went into pandemic lockdown, hmmmm. You say he's "consistently aimed to unify" but there's some doubt over that. And I'm not saying he doesn't want the fight. I'm just questioning it now more than I have before.
And I have noticed Hearn is reeling out more excuses as to why the fight will not happen. From Usyk to Wilder in a few days. AJ does not want to fight Tyson Fury.
