    Fury, but I like Joshua too.

    1. I honestly think Fury is the better man. Look at how he handled his series with Wilder while Joshua was befuddled by Ruiz. At this point, Fury can be a top ten great, whereas Joshua would have to work a lot harder to get that high.

    2. I've been with Fury longer, as I watched his earliest fights on Youtube way back in the day. Very compelled with his story of overcoming premature birth and poverty.

    3. I have never seen a package of skills like his. He seems to come up with whatever he needs.

    That being said, nothing but love for Joshua, who really stepped up and kept the division interesting while Fury was out. Let the rules be well kept, and better man win.

    If you don't see an issue with boycotting businesses based on the race of the owner, any race, then you need to reevaluate yourself and take a long introspective look. That is if you don't already consider yourself a bigot.

    Where's the option for hoping Wilder hammers both of them?

    I think Joshua might well hold the same views as Fury on the issues you find him bigoted.

    What agenda? Fury has said some dumb **** in the name of the bible. Foreman hasn't made those kinds of comments. I don't hate Fury. But it's a fact he has openly made ****ed up comments. Only after backlash he says "oh no I didn't mean it".

    You must not have seen Fury's comments. Sexist, bigoted and racist. At some point, when someone says some offensive ****, people gotta stop saying "oh he didn't mean that". Stop it. Don't know why people defend celebrities so hard.

    I love Pac, but I can admit that he's a bible thumper too holding stupid beliefs from a book written by men.

    A few years ago Fury, all the way. Now I'm not too concerned. Just want to see a good fight with no funny business.

    This is a tough one for me. I'm a fan of both and have followed both for many years. Up until recently I was definitely team Joshua but Fury has grown on me and Joshua has been less impressive in and out of the ring in the last 12 months. Tbh I'd like to see the best man win and a rematch in the UK!!

    And both are bigots.
    Joshua bangs on about equal opprtunities for blacks, he's black and the heavyweight champion of the world, having had an easy ride in his career compared to Fury.

    Always a AJ fan, and still is. But I like Fury, though.
    AJ all the way!
