    I'd rather see this. I like Joshua and wish him well, but he does not deserve another chance at Usyk. At least Dubois has improved himself, and they can sell a return match based on the controversy.

    He has said multiple times that he has no intention of retiring.

    If Usyk beats Fury again and later, AJ and Fury fight, there would be absolutely nothing wrong with the winner getting a third crack at Usyk.

    In fact, the winner of such a fight would be the leading contender to face Usyk.

    Doesn't do much for me. Usyk beat him twice already, fairly clearly. No need for a third fight IMO. Didn't need the second.

    We also don't need a second with Fury, really. :deal:

    Think about the lesser-glory Liston would've had in his welcome of a third Patterson bout. But this is a more-er-glory than that lesser one.

    AJ already lost twice. How many more attempts does he need? He certainly hasn't earned it.

    Obviously makes sense for Usyk's bank account as it's low risk, very high reward

    But very disappointing from a fan perspective when the likes of Parker, Kabayel and Zhang are around and worthy contenders. Usyk should defend against one of them, and Fury and AJ should fight each other

    Not just endless rematches and trilogies, it's getting boring

    I did. He's already lost twice, and there are plenty of other contenders who have actually earned their title shots.

    Did AJ give Ruiz a trilogy? Or even a rematch to anyone where he didn't lose to them?

    Doesn't natter.

    If he beats Fury again, that means there are TWO fighters he's beaten twice.

    And this two are probably I and 2 of all current heavyweights not named Usyk.

    So, if these two fight, and they almost certainly would, the winner would be the number one contender.

    There's nothing wrong with facing the top contender.


    I'm not saying he has to face either one if he beats Fury, but it wouldn't be amiss.

    Lots of fights happened three or more times.

    Yes trilogy after Fury beats him
    I doubt either guy wants to end it even
