    Who takes it now after Fury’s performance last night

    Hearn wants to make it asap

    LoL zero chance Fury agrees to a AJ fight.

    Most likely we'll see 2 Usyk fights which I still have Fury a heavy favourite and then he retires.

    I think that is the fight Fury would be the most motivated to train for.

    Joshua is mentally shot and quit to Ruiz years ago,Hearn is just busy milking the money now with the least resistance fights possible whilst hoping for a back door route to another title shot.Hearn might fancy the Fury fight now after that performance last night but Undisputed still comes first and then how often has Hearn been mentioning Wilder this year for Joshua,with Wilder even taking to social media saying he wants Joshua next after Hearn said he doubted Wilders interest (usual tactics from Hearn). What Fury needs to do is actually get himself in shape,remember that he is a boxer first and foremost and not some big puncher as this he simply is not and last but not least listen to his trainer and have his dad nowhere near camp ! Fury needs to fight the Undisputed then give Ngannou a deserved rematch when he has actually trained,is fit and battle ready .

    Why are everyone saying Fury didn't train?

    All reports he done a 12 week camp, longest he has done in recent years.

    AJ has a great chance on that evidence.

    Fury’s whole aura is built off two fighters. Wilder, who is absolutely useless and Klitschko, who completely froze on the night (equivalent to saying Buster Douglas is unbeatable because of his performance against Tyson). Pretty sure Wlad would have beat Fury in the rematch.

    Fury’s technique is horrible, look at the awful flick jabs he was throwing against Ngannou. His whole career has been smoke and mirrors, he’s avoided consistently fighting good fighters because he would rather live off the fact people ‘think’ he would beat them, rather than having to prove it and potentially risk losing.

    Ngannou boxed very conventionally and gave Fury massive problems (just like Wallin, Cunningham and McDermott) which tells me AJ has a good chance of beating him. He’d be the best opponent Fury had faced bar a frozen Wlad.

    Joshua from past was very dangerous opponent for Fury that's why he choose Wilder fights even if he earn less.

    Now its different story because Anthony after his all loss not soo much offensive-confident.

    But Fury is slow now. It will be interesting to watch but I dont think it happend.

    Fury got different problem and this problem name is Usyk.

    What other excuse can they use?

    I suppose they could blame it on Usyk's "He was too focused on the middleweight". Oh wait, @Thunderstorm already has :lol:

    There’s no chance Fury risks getting smoked by Joshua. This fight is deader than a dead thing.

    Fury did train, but he didn't take Francis seriously at all, and is an undisciplined dosser. Probably didn't train hard enough, didn't take his training seriously. Was lazy throughout his training sessions, drank pints and hard drugs etc.

    Didn’t train doesn’t mean he didn’t train. It means he did not train hard.

    The fact Fury came in at his heaviest ever and was so sloppy and unfocused shows that not only did he not give Ngannou the respect he deserves but also he could not have trained properly at all. This is the worst version of Fury we have ever seen and hopefully now will give him the kick up the arse that is needed.Too many in the Fury entourage,too many YES men,too many distractions,making Netflix documentaries,needs to be in a proper training camp,pity he can’t fight in America so his Dads not there.Usyk cruises past last nights version of Fury.

    Joshua can definitely knock out Fury. Hearn smells blood.

    Judging on last night Aj will be most peoples pick, but I still think Fury would do him

    He would be completely motivated. No excuses for last night. Fury lost and that's that. It's on him if he took francis lightly.

    However, Aj has looked useless for a while now and still afraid to get hit. I think Fury would beat him still
