    That would look ridiculous if AJ runs from Usyk. What next? He will ride a bicycle against Loma?

    And if IBF also give him a 180 day deadline?

    Personally WBO is a junk 2nd rate belt. None of the true greats every had that belt around their waist - okay so it was a new arrival in the late 80's but still Tyson, Lennox, Hoyfield etc never bothered with it. The likes of Ray Mercer, Herbie hide, Briggs wore that junk belt.

    Hearn isn't stupid, he saw this coming a mile off, two miles of, a long way off.

    He is working with Usyk and pushing this Chisora fight to push back any mandatory and will pay Usyk a shed load of money for Chisora.

    It will be PPV and Usyk and AJ will go and smash up Pulev in the summer at The New TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR STADIUM (N17 Forver) a 20 miles stones throw from where AJ was born.

    It will be called The HOME COMING.


    Then there will be the same old take about Wilder Vs Fury winner, that won't go anywhere and AJ will fight Usyk or Whyte depending on circumstances at the end of 2020.

    This will be a long long boring run of defences, they won't risk a thing for a long time.

    If Joshua vacates the WBO strap rather than fighting Usyk ... and Hearn just expects to make a deal with Arum for Pulev ... then Hearn is the one who may get blindsided.

    If Hearn and Arum can't come to an agreement for a Joshua-Pulev fight, Pulev fights for the vacant IBF title, probably against Kownacki. That's a much more winnable fight for Pulev, and Arum may need a heavyweight champion if Fury gets bulldozed by Wilder.

    By the summer of 2020, we could see Pulev-Kownacki competing for the IBF strap. Usyk-Chisora fighting for the WBO strap.

    Deontay Wilder sitting on top with the WBC and RING belts, yelling Bombsquad at everyone.

    And Anthony Joshua stuck trying to UNIFY THE WBA BELTS with Charr and Bryan, or being forced to vacate his WBA belt, too, in order to fight the Usyk-Chisora winner as the challenger.

    This could get hilarious. This board will melt down.

    Cool story bro.

    You should change your username to Dribblechin.. The only way Wilder beats Fury in February is if Fury goes back on the coke..
    Fury took Wilder's best, got up and continued to make Widler look silly, it was hilarious!!!

    Summer 2020 It will be Fury screaming DOSSERS and wanting to unify.. Nothing like the quacking the Duckontay does on a weekly basis.

    So, the only thing you disagree with in that scenario is who wins Wilder-Fury II? (LOL)

    I'll take that as a "like."

    Pretty sure if Arum and Hearn can't agree terms then it will go to purse bids.

    Hearn very likely to win.

    Or will Arum/ESPN? If ESPN wins, will DAZN let Joshua out of his contract to fight on ESPN PPV?

    I think Hearn should go with Usyk-Joshua.

    If his "long-term" plan includes negotiating a deal with Bob Arum or winning a purse bid with ESPN, as opposed to just making Joshua-Usyk himself, that doesn't seem like a sound plan.

    We'll see.

    If pitty pat Ruiz could stop him, he really isn't safe against anyone.
