    I know you don't like Fury, but to deny that this happened is just plain stupid:

    Does AJ know Wallin is a southpaw? He apparently didn't for the Usyk fights and that's why he lost. Someone had better warn him.

    Wallin on his greatest night of his career is known for giving Fury a bad cut on his eye,this is a good rebuild fight for Joshua and I can’t see Wallin lasting 12 rounds tbh .

    So he should be playing fair, when Fuey was constantly fauling with going head first, holding and leaning on him, and rwf so nothing about it???
    Your clip just show what a dirty cheater Fury is.

    Calm down. Perkin denied that Wallin raked Fury's cut, so I pulled up the video that proves him wrong.

    Wallin is a better opponent than Arreola that's for sure.

    Think Joshua wins by KO but Wallin is still a bit of an unknown quantity.

    The thinking is that Wallin isn't as good as Usyk and Joshua performed well enough against Usyk to beat Wallin, that Wallin isn't a puncher, Joshua decisioned him twice in the amateurs, there's plenty of film of Wallin to study and a win over Wallin would go some way in rebuilding Joshua's confidence and credibility, considering that Wallin gave Fury one of his more difficult nights.

    However, Joshua has these problems:

    1. Winless since December 2020

    2. Back to back points defeats to ex-cruiser B-side, 6’3, 220 lbs non-puncher Usyk

    3. 3 defeats in his last 5 fights, 1 by NOMAS7 to B-side, 6’, 270 lbs non-puncher Ruiz

    4. 1 KO win in his last 5 fights and 4+ years, against 39 year old inactive Pulev in the 9th round

    5. Made an absurd amount of money and had a long reign

    6. Uncertainty with and lack of confidence from his team

    7. Continues to see his résumé age horribly

    8. Gone from hero to zero, lost a huge amount of support and respect

    Furthermore, there will be the hope/anticipation that Joshua improves on Fury's performance against Wallin and he'll know that a loss to Wallin will end his career. Wallin isn't a puncher but neither was Andy Ruiz, Wallin is tough, confident, determined, active and in his athletic prime, with the experience of going 12 with Fury, he's a bigger, fresher southpaw than Usyk and has more skill than Whyte.

    AJ picking a decently skilled lefty that can move for his next fight, I'd have to see it to believe it. I don't see it happening. I'd respect it if they made it though because it's still a stylistic problem for AJ and shows he wants to solve it.

    Good fight for AJ, Wallin caused Fury plenty of problems so if AJ dispatches him early it's certainly a statement.

    Though I wish the big four would ALL fight each other...

    If the Wallin fight is true, that is a huge step up from Burrito boy.

    It is risky... Wallin a live dog

    Win at all costs, open that cut up good and proper get the stoppage, and a big scalp is on his win record, is it fair no, is it keeping in the spirt of Marquess of Queensberry rules no, is it a good idea hell yeah.

    Fury happily leans on fighters and pushes them down and gets away with it, so all is fair in the bout unless ref says otherwise.

    Wallin is a bum wtf

    I hope this backfires on Joshua and he gets knocked out

    Wallin is a southpaw so perhaps he will cause Joshua some problems

    AJ pretty much said Wallin was a bum back in 2019.
    & this was when AJ was coming off a KO quit defeat to fat Ruiz.

    so I guess AJ wants to fight a bum next
