    Hearn said today that people should demand his Fury to fight Whyte next.

    They have 30 days to make this fight.

    I think Fans should demand Undisputed fight next and AJ to fight the winner.

    That would be great for boxing.

    It's a good fight, Fury-Whyte, and makes money sense for Fury.
    But so is Fury-Wallin 2 if Wallin beats Whyte ..... yet Hearn has put in a rematch clause for that.

    Fury-Usyk is a better fight than Usyk-AJ 2, by far .... yet Hearn has the rematch clause in that one too.

    Hearn doesn't care about the best fights for the fans.

    Yes they're both fearless road warriors who won their titles on the road in conclusive fashion and both deserve the opportunity to fight for the marbles now. Fury had to beat The Tuscaloser three times in his backyard to wriggle free from him and Usyk outclassed AJ in his backyard where everything was against him. It wasn't close and neither were the three baptisms Fury performed on The Tuscaloser. Let AJ and The Tuscaloser fight each other or AJ vs Whyte.

    Has Wilder got any excuses yet or is it just static on the radio?

    Personally speaking, the only fight I want to see is the BEST vs the BEST

    And that is Usyk vs Fury.

    Fury vs Whyte is a sideshow, and that's IF Whyte get's by Wallin which is no certainty.

    Usyk vs Joshua 2? Given how convinced I was on how Usyk was a bad matchup for Joshua on paper , seeing the real fight has made me even more convinced that the rematch will bee even worse for Joshua unless he can get back to his mentality before Ruiz (maybe even before Wlad). I think Hearn and AJ think that was the best Usyk they could face - given it was only his 3rd Heavyweight fight and he has learned a TON about AJ, I can see Usyk being even better in the return - unless age catches up with him which is possible.

    Usyk vs Fury is the ONLY fight worth anything at Heavyweight right now.

    I have already seen fury v whyte in a very one sided match up, no point! OK it was Chisora on the rematch, but the result would be the same

    The bodybuilder also loses against usyk, so why not let Fury v Usyk, while bodybuilder fights whyte. The winners can then meet!

    Yes we should but it may not work anyways depending on the fighters and them managers.

    And in a perfect boxing world Wilder would fight AJ but good luck with that.

    This.

    It's pretty damn stupid to demand fights that pre-existing contracts and impending mandatories preclude from happening just yet.

    Anyone who demands that and expects the powers that be to take the slightest bit of notice is going to be really disappointed.

    They still have 28 days to make another contract so that Fury vs Usyk can happen next

    WBC will allow it

    AJ/Hearn have a rematch clause and will use it - the only way the Usyk-Fury fight happens is if AJ wants to let it, and Fury ain't paying huge stepaside money to AJ if he wasn't willing to pay it to Wilder.

    Demand all you like, it just ain't happening just yet.

    You can demand all you want. The legal contract that Eddie and AJ have over Usyk, makes it impossible.

    I hate his rematch clauses.

    Rematch clauses should be illegal, except for world titleholders fighting a voluntary opponent in a non-unification fight.

    They can change it, if fans want it and they would see that they can make money.

    and it benefit AJ more to fight for all the belts at the same time and he will have more time to prepare.

    Why people give up so easy ? Just to write about it in social media and make it viral.
