Er, Joshua V Fury should be it's own big event in Wembley. If they make it a co-main event of some silly 5v5 card in Saudi it'll be a travesty. I can tolerate some fights in the middle east but this one belongs in a UK stadium.
Better late than never, but not nearly as interested as before If only they had of fought prior to usyk,or at least before Usyk beat Fury and Aj got knocked out This is worse than Floyd v manny. That fight was 5 years too late, but they were at least still the best in the division. The great Usyk has cast a shadow over this fight. Like seriously, we are all going to watch, but could have been so much more
Not a fan of either man but have always seen this a competitive fight stylistically, especially now that Fury holds his feet more and is hittable. It means little more than just being a legacy defining fight for both, a make or break for the no 2 position for this generation.
Yeah, really sad that this didn't come off as planned in 2021. Still a pretty good fight, but at least four years too late.
It is annoying as Fury in particular is past physical prime and Aj will have to mentally get over the smashing by Dubois Usyk was a breath of fresh air to the division. He really has balls and wanted all the best guys
I still want to see it I'm one of those people that has always said that Joshua is a tough style match up for him. Fury is not a puncher so Joshua could take a few more risks and Fury has not fought a puncher with some skill since Wladimir. Not a fan of either but depending on what both of their mentalities are like atm I think it's a genuine pick em fight
To me Joshua seemed like a boxer who ended up against Dubois. After the knockdown in the first round he never recovered, he struggled with every important attack of his opponent, he ended up on the canvas several times and was finally knocked out heavily. Fury's defeats against Usyk were of a completely different nature, the English fighter, despite clearly losing, was in the match until the end both times. If Fury trains seriously (And this is not certain) for me he will clearly win against Joshua, even inside the distance. In general I think the best Fury is superior to the best AJ, but even now that I'm at the end of my career I think the Gipsy King has something more left.
I retract this statement regarding watching this circus. It may be cutting my own nose off and all that, but out of principle, not only will I refuse to pay for this fight, i will not watch either I am only one guy, it makes no difference, but f..k them. They are going to make a fight which is easily 5 years past it's sell by date, or at least 3. As above, at least Manny and Floyd were the top 2 P4P in the sport when they fought years later. I won't donate a penny to these rich pricks looking a final cash grab
Fury vs. Joshua would be a bad fight because both men would be unmotivated knowing they will make money anyway and boxing fans will be tricked into paying for it...
