    You keep saying that Usyk is retiring, and yet he has stated repeatedly that he is not going to do so.

    He won't retire yet but it's not long off.

    It's not long till AJ, FURY, USYK are all gone.
    After that it may be dull or it maybe a good new scramble of opportunitys.

    I had the most bizarre dream last night that Terence Crawford challenged Moses Itauma and wouldn't back down despite taking a proper doing. Either I overslept or didn't get enough.

    He says he's going back to cruiser. He could fight there another 2-3 years.

    This thread is officially the last bastion of free speech.

    So Ben Davison is the difference between being outboxed across 2 fights and knocking the same opponent out in 4 rounds.

    Comments like that will make it even more funnier if on Saturday week, Dubois renders Joshua unconscious.

    Oh yeah, about the topic on hand, Usyk would defeat Joshua again if they met for a third time(which I hope they don't unless Usyk wants the fight for a huge pay cheque) Joshua doesn't deserve to share the ring with Usyk for a third time, even if he beats Dubois.

    Exactly my point.

    We wanna see fury v AJ before it's too late.

    Khan v brook was similar. Turned out khan was no longer in peak condition by the time it happened. Fight should have happened ages ago ( ignoring the covid years)

    I personally don't care about Fury vs Joshua and whether the fight ever happens. Both have been around long enough for the fight to have been made, but both have made excuses to avoid it, no doubt it will happen, unfortunately as too much money even if both lose their respective next fights on the table.

    Doesn’t really interest me Joshua v Fury these days tbh. Just like Joshua v Wilder, it would be too late.

    Certainly wilder is too late.

    Fury v AJ still interests me . Who else would be better for each of them?? No one

    While it's definitely too late there's definitely still interest in a Fury Joshua fight for me if it happens next year as long as it's here.

    It'd be a travesty if two British heavyweights with lots of world title fights between and who were among the best of their era never ended up fighting each other.

    If Usyk wins hope he retires. Must be hard going going in with these big fellas, dont want him to deteriorate overnight and they claim a scalp, go out on top a multi millionaire. Probably have pressure to continue in terms of money and as being a symbol of ukrainian resistance.

    In Terms of what will people remember if he got beat, i think in time if he did most proper fans would have a balanced view of eachs victories. Like if you think of ali frazier, you dont think fraziers victories shite cos of the thriller in manilla. Your more modern casual fan may see it different
