    Do you think he could be lurking in the hope that usyk retires and the belts get scattered, wait it out for a year then have a gimme fight and hope that he times usyks retirement right?
    That’s kinda of my feeling, not really that much of a risk to go about it in that way, I think his main concern is avoiding another defeat, and not fighting is serving him well in that regard.
    I think he would fight fury if it was on the cards and then retire regardless of result.
    Otherwise I think he’s waiting on usyk to retire

    Fury not bolstering his resume more has got nothing to do with Joshua.

    The guy has serious motivation issues these days. Waisting the last good years of his career doing nothing. The Fury fight wont come out of inertia.

    There is plenty to choose from as everyone wants to face him
    Dubois rematch
    Wilder
    Kabayel
    Parker
    Hrgovic
    Chisora
    Zhang
    Anderson
    Ajagba
    Yoka

    Just get back and fight someone, a win will take him closer to the Fury bout
