Well there's something else in the way now although if I were Fury I'd look to fight Wilder in December and then tell Whyte he needs to be good to go in March. If he doesn't like it then he can wait until 2022. Fury wasn't the one blowing him off as number 1 contender for years.
Because it`s the fight the British press have been saying is a done deal and the fight British fight fans want to see the most.
The WBC don't give a **** about Whyte, if Fury - a champion they like from what I can see - tells them fine let's do it in March or he'll have to wait I'd imagine they'd say fine. Whyte has been asking for a shot and would be getting given a chance at it. They could then move closer to get their slice of the Fury Joshua super fight.
Fury v Wilder 3 delayed until 2021 as it needs a live gate. AJ v Pulev likely to be delayed until 2021 for the same reason. Fury then has a WBC mandatory against Whyte. AJ then has a WBO mandatory against Usyk. Fury v AJ won’t happen until 2022 IF at all.
Cancel Fury Wilder 3. It's pointless. Fury beat the man twice in a row. Have Whyte fight Wilder, winner earns a shot at the winner of Fury vs AJ. Oh, I forgot the sanctioning bodies and promoters don't care about the sport or the fans.
The only reason AJ is considering getting in with Fury is the belt. If he drops that then AJ will announce he has to fight mandatories, take a couple of light touches and then fight the new belt holder.
I think Fury vs Joshua can happen, but when it does, it will be one of those quick arrangements that needs to happen before a suspension, or when one of the mangers knows his guy is in decline and to cash out ASAP. Whyte is probably the 3rd best man Fury has met. If he's in shape an upset can happen. Whyte vs Wilder now? I'd probably pick Whyte. I agree AJ vs. Uysk will be a good one.
