    I have been a fan of Haye and Fury.
    Not really a planned thing but due to demographic, have seen Haye live more than I have seen any other boxer. Seen Haye live 6 times

    Will he throw a punch this time or try to lean him into submission like he did Dubois?

    Does Fury need to worry about building a ranking or will he walk into a fight with AJ/Wilder as soon as he’s beat a legit top 20 guy?

    I.e Will he be targeting a guy ranked oddly high by the WBO to build a ranking there?

    I'll go for Ian Lewison who is slightly known but incredibly slow so would make Fury look good.

    I think Cojanu could be the guy. Has some cred after taking Parker 12 so Fury gets rounds maybe with limited risk. Perfect.

    Shannon Briggs has been out for 2 years and is 46 years old. Can't see that one happening and I doubt Briggs will ever fight again.

    Kassi is fighting Izu Ugonoh soon.

    I'm thinking it'll be a Brit local. Maybe a Cornish or Lewison.

    If he genuinely wanted the Joshua fight then why not sign with matchroom. It’s going to be nigh on impossible between Frank and Eddie to sort out and split across two platforms and all that bollocks.

    Is it possible that Fury is just using Joshua’s name to sell himself and become relevant but at the same time half dodging him?

    We won’t see Fury - Haye but I think we’ve got more chance of seeing Dubois - Fury in the next few years than AJ - Fury.
