    Give answer in the poll, I feel Usyk v AJ is the higher quality fight.

    I say AJ vs Usyk, to see if Usyk is truly able with all his skills to overcome one of the behemoths who is sitting at the top table in the heavyweight division.

    We know who the likely winner of Fury vs Wilder will be.

    The main thing is the titles are being defended, so a big cheer from me on that score.

    Usyk/AJ for me, because its a fresh match up. We've seen Fury/Wilder twice already and Wilder won like 3-4 rounds across both fights combined.

    AJ vs Usyk cos Fury has fought Wilder twice already. But both are good fights that could produce an upset

    Right. I think we all know by now that Fury is the superior overall boxer while Wilder is a one dimensional big puncher. These fights are essentially roll the dice until Wilders punchers chance eventually works out for him.

    AJ/Usyk is the more compelling match up now.

    It's a good fight for the division but I can't imagine AJ-Usyk styles producing a particularly enjoyable fight. I might be wrong.
    I've enjoyed the previous 2 Fury-Wilder fights and don't mind see a 3rd.
    I'll be watching both.

    Personally prefer AJ as a fan - but the Fury Wilder fight should be quite entertaining, they both clearly hate each other and have something to prove. Fury wants to beat him up and completely demoralise Wilder, while Wilder absolutely has to produce something to keep his career alive.

    AJ vs Usyk

    The HW with the best resume in the division vs the greatest ever CW.

    AJ v Usyk = number 1 and 3 in the division now as things stand plus we haven't seen it before, unlike the other fight which is pointless tbh

    If you're truly objective, both. Where's that option in the poll, Mark? Isn't there any room for objectively in response to the question posed? Or are you only soliciting responses from those incapable of impartiality?

    Fury v Wilder is for the legitimate H/W Championship of the World. That in itself is an attraction.

    Joshua v Usyk is for the Unified Alphabet Championship. Has the added attraction of being between the two Gold medalists from the 2012 Olympics one of whom is still undefeated as a professional.

    The interesting thing that no-one has mentioned is that if Fury & Joshua both win, any subsequent fight between them for the Undisputed Championship will be even bigger than it was previously going to be. Of course, one of them might lose...

    I like both of these fight. Fury already beat Wilder twice but I expect him to put on an even bigger beating this time. And Wilder’s corner isn’t going to stop it so he will get his wish, to go out on his shield. Hope they bring an actual shield in there and hand it to Wilder so he can go out on it.

    Usyk AJ will be fun to watch. I expect AJ to try to use his size and strength to rough Usyk up and for Usyk to do what he does in every fight, box and move. Usyk AJ is more interesting because it’s closer to 5050. I di t see Wilder showing anything new in his fight. He couldn’t beat the off the couch version of Tyson in the first fight. Can’t see him beating a fit and focused version assuming that’s who he will see in the ring. Exciting to see both fights as long as the winners fight each other. I’m also cop with the losers fighting each other. Let’s just see good fights. And I hope the outcomes are legit. No bogus cards for these fights please.

    Joshua vs Usyk is the bigger fight of the 2, but im looking foward to Fury vs Wilder 3 as well. Might even make a trip to vegas to see it live.

    Kinda hoping Fury annihilates him again and Malik Scott throws in the towel this time... I can still envisage Wilder getting a lucky punch
