    I’m thinking that Fury is saying to himself I already beat Wilder, sonill take a fight in May or June then fight Joshua next best Joshua and be the heavyweight with all the belts and two of the biggest promotional companies on both sides of the pond. He would be holding all of the cards that’s for sure.

    Can Fury fanboys now explain the difference between this and every move his criticised Joshua for?

    If Anthony Joshua said he was fighting Miller as interim fight and then Wilder or Fury after there would be carnage.

    Well Fury calls every fighter in his division a bum, so how can you build profile fighting bums?

    Whilst it sucks it could be argued that we got the first fight we’ll ahead of time,think we was all surprised at that fight happening so soon after Fury coming back.
    I’m no big Joshua fan but it’s worth noting that he’s the big pay day and yet none are taking it.

    True enough it stinks how AJ has been made to look the villain,personally I hate the A side thing but these guys are avoiding huge offers from AJ for the sake of ten percent?

    Knew this was going to happen as soon as Fury signed with Top Rank

    Look at what Top Rank do to their fighters for a start. They wouldn't even let any of their guys join the Super 6 for huge purses and titles.

    Wilder v Breazeale. AJ already beaten Breazeale.

    Fury v Parker. AJ already beaten Parker.

    More important Wilder and Fury were both offered the AJ fight and both refused yet they won't even be fighting each other.

    This is not how it was supposed to go down.

    There could be more to this you know?ive a feeling that it’s not just the networks that he’s working on,could be the WBC have grown tired of Wilder and want Fury as their champ.Fury May want assurances that he won’t get robbed on the cards should he win the rematch.

    Fury’s head has been turned by the money, hope he trains for the lesser fights, takes them seriously and doesn’t mess up.

    Didn't Fury last night week say he was telling Warren and Arum to make the Wilder fight next?

    Everybody saw this coming the second he signed with Top Rank. Bummer man, just a bummer. No doubt in my mind Fury will fight Parker.
