    Usyk has already shown in the first two fights with Joshua that there is absolutely no need for a third fight . Usyk has never been behind,never been on the floor and never looked like losing at any point in both fights.

    Rubber matches are often fought to decide who's the better fighter. In this case, even if Joshua were to win, he would still have a losing record against Usyk. There is no point to having this fight just to have it. If the heavyweight dynamic were to change then perhaps a new reason for a third fight would emerge. As it stands now, there are better, more important fights to be made.

    Other people deserve a chance to fight the elite, no more trilogy fights.

    AJ has lost his confidence. NoFear to FEAR.
    There are guys he beat before that he won't beat now.
    He should fight a few easy matches and try for a belt after Fury and Usyk are retired.
    Or retire. But he'll feel better about retirement if he beats a few guys first.

    It is rematch clauses and re-rematches that have limited the opportunities for others to challenge for the title.

    So no, unless AJ earns the right to another bout.

    I dint even think he deserved this rematch nor the one vs Ruiz.
    It should be when the first gives a reason.

    Aj clearly beaten twice.

    It came in very handy the contract stipulations to get the fight with Joshua that if you beat Joshua you had to rematch him and fight him a second time. Joshua never deserved the rematch with Ruiz or Usyk it was the contract and nothing else that got him the rematches .Rematchroom at its finest !

    No, I think Usyk won both either 117-111 or 116-112 so that's a hard pass.

    Well wilder was able to drop fury twice in their first bout and got a gift draw. Now usyk surgically removed belts from AJ . So NO.
    But AJ deserves a fight with Deontay . Two losers must face each other.

    No, he doesn't deserve it. And if you think it deserves a trilogy, give me an argument why it does.

    But it's time for the AJ Vs Wilder fight. One of the two Phoenixes can rise from the ashes.

    No mate just get over it, your NBA players lost TWICE to Fury & Usyk.. those sagas are over. The top dogs will fight now & probably both will then retire.
