    I reckon Fury would take the Joshua fight in April over fighting Wilder again. Come on, let’s be honest now, he was screaming his name. It’ll be sold as the unofficial undisputed heavyweight championship fight, and rightly so.

    AJ has Whyte rematch and then Usyk already lined up while Hearn will keep saying he's trying his hardest to make the fight.

    How has Joshua lost out after tonight? Genuinely confused by that. He can justified his decision for not fighting in America after that disgraceful robbery, and also he can fight whoever he wants for a load of money while fury gets robbed again for peanuts. Seems like a great scenario for Joshua? Unless I’m missing something.

    Not necessarily.. A chubby and careless Fury also made Wlad look helpless and was scared to even attempt to throw a KO punch.. The same Wlad who almost KO’d AJ coming off a loss and a two yr lay-off.. there were two losers tonight and that was AJ and Wilder.. Both guys could have fought each other and would have been the unquestioned/undisputed #1 HW.. now many including myself believing the #1 HW in the world is Tyson Fury when you factor in his near shutout victory over Wlad and now this victory over Wilder.. Wilder and AJ can fight in April and it still wouldn’t mean much until Fury is defeated

    Seriously AJ does nothing less than 80k attendance in the UK. He 100% and I repeat 100% DOES NOT NEED Wilder or Fury, They need him because after their fake rematch is done they have nothing! That's why they ALWAYS need to use AJ's name for self publicity.

    Wilders stock has already been shot to pieces so he can no longer call out AJ. He got exposed and as for Fury he is the only one who can call out AJ and thats the fight the British public want to see. They dont need USA.

    From what I understand, for a boxing match a full Staples Center generates approximately the same amount of money that a full Wembley does. Well, this time the Staples Center was not full, ok, but it might be the next time.

    AJ made £20m in his last fight against Povetkin - and Povetkin made £6m. That fight alone AJ made 12x more than Wilder has ever made. And you tell me AJ is the biggest loser LMAO!!!

    I got this impression when he was screaming AJ's name on the showtime post fight interview

    TBH that is the real fight fans want to see. Wilders stock is at an all time low. In the fans eyes only 2 boxers are undefeated. So if anything this fight is good for AJ means that only one man and not two men stand in his way as undisputed + lineal champ

    He should fight him. Only the official scores dictate that as a draw. Hearn will promote Fury as the true WBC champion, and that way this robbery won’t be swept under the rug. Joshua vs Fury as of now is for the undisputed champion. That will sell itself. Joshua won’t get frozen out, but the official WBC title may do, if Fury goes the Joshua route.

    Difficult yo be the B side when you've got 3 belts but I agree to a point.

    If the rematch is agreed and takes place in June, it'll mean AJ will have been a bit part player on the HW scene for over a year. Kind of been treading water since the Klitschko fight.

    Parker fight was ok because of the unification aspect but other than that it's starting fall flat.

    If Joshua wanted to get paid and build a legacy, fighting an undefeated Wilder and an undefeated Fury would be the surest way to do that. The chance of that happening is zero.

    No Wilders stock has gone up I don't agree with that.
