    Yup, just saw this on the mouse network. Will be absolutely tragic is this happens in SA as they are discussing. This has to be in England or the USA, no other options should even be on the table. It can't ALL be about the money.....can it?

    That would actually be the smartest thing he’s done so far ,he can get a undisputed fight instead of a potential retirement fight with Fury . The money in Joshua fight or Fury would be three times the pay if he sits this one out even if he had to wait for a late 2021 undisputed fight .

    More clickbait.

    Hearn's actual quote: "We're certainly open to have discussions about the possibility of this happening."

    Now THAT is a definitive statement. (LOL)

    Counter that with Finkel's quote. "As far as we're concerned, the next fight for Wilder is the third fight with Fury."

    This. Joshua still has a mandatory and Wilder isn’t taking step aside money.

    Yeah, he's "running away" from someone he fought twice already. How is it even possible to be this idiotic?.

    As much as I'd love for them to bypass Fury vs Wilder 3 and Joshua vs Pulev that is not likely to happen

    my fear is after the above fights the WBC finally enforces Whyte and the WBO enforces Usyk and we have to wait even longer or have someone get stripped if the fight is made. We havent had this great of a chance for all the belts to come together in a long time

    Its going to be after Fury-Wilder III and Joshua-Pulev

    It is absolutely crazy that Wilder literally has turned into a stepping stone fight into a bigger clash.

    I think some people say that Wilder is crazy for taking the third fight but its literally his last shot for a belt or to possibly unify. If he doesn't fight Fury, what does he even do? Everyone will just think of him as second rate to Fury/Joshua yet nobody wants to see him fight other second rate fighters.

    It was just stupid for Wilder to not take the Anthony Joshua fight, especially after the first Fury fight! Wilder should have literally counted his blessings, realized Fury was all wrong for him, and taken 40% against Joshua with a guaranteed rematch! At least Wilder had a better chance vs Joshua than Fury...

    After being exposed so undiniably in the second fight don't see the point in a trilogy. But fairs fair and all that! But just see it as the fight we want to see being put off for longer. It's been dragged out far to long now by the promoter's needs to happen tho and in UK

    Joshua would have to vacate those shiny WBO IBF belts. Not gonna happen, the greedy bully bodybuilder wants to beat up on poor old Pulev. I can't see anyone holding all those belts. The lineal title that Fury holds is the most important anyway! Not those paper titles that Anthony has his grubby infected hands on! Lol

    Until the travel ban is lifted nobody is fighting abroad. Makes sense for Fury & Joshua to fight in the UK next, Wilder can have a tune up to test his bicep op recovery. Wilder then ( assuming he wins & is willing ) takes on the winner of the Battle of Britain.

    Won’t happen

    Fury has wilders number now and AJ has to fulfill his mandatory

    I agree fury vs AJ makes the most money right now but warren and Hearn working together? I think we have more chance of Elvis coming back from the dead
