Seems folks on here have extreme views on the outcome of this fight, one way or another, I hapened to think it will be very close one way or another, so who will win or will it be a draw, poll.
I'm not sure. I'd have made Fury an exceptionally strong favourite if this fight had taken place last summer rather than this, but 18 months out of the ring is a long time out of the ring for a guy with questionable habits & who'll be near as damnit 33 years old by the time they 'get it on'. I appreciate that Joshua is a not dissimilar age & hasn't been keeping all that busy himself, but I he takes far better care of himself & suppose I see the long hiatus as a wild card, something that could conceivably tip the fight either way. I suppose my idea of the probabilities are something like: Fury, points - 45%; Joshua, KO - 35%; Fury, KO - 15%; and Joshua, points - 5%.

AJ mulls fury smothering him and walking through him 3 rounds....brutal uppercut ends it...to be honest povekin at that stage was a harder fit than what Fury will be
I don't see how any Joshua could beat Fury from Wilder II but its still a hard fight to call. Joshua's skill , technique and ring IQ is always improving. So is his stamina with better weight management. Joshua is a very good HW , It wouldn't surprise me at all if he wins the fight. But I would go Fury if I had to pick a winner
I haven't seen a performance in Joshua, after the Klitschko fight where I think he could beat Fury. So I will go with a points win to Fury. Shame this fight didn't happen in 2019.
AJ ......slightly ...... I think Tyson's 18 months of inactivity will show in that ring. That's going to hurt him.
AJ knocked out Whyte who just knocked out Povetkin, how many fighters has Fury knocked out with uppercut? It`s easier to land the uppercut on a short boxer, AJ is 6`6 and very upright.
