    No, Just No, he has over 40 fights and Wilder has the weakest resume by a mile, it's not even close.

    He lost to Fury, I dont care what the judges said. We all know what we saw and he was also nearly knocked out and maybe should have been stopped against an old man with a heart problem, and let's get it right here Ortiz is only living off that Jennings KO because he hasn't done anything that impressive since.


    If you want to be a bitter moron and call or insinuate that AJ a PED cheat that's your problem but don't tell lies and pretend Wilder has a better resume, he has had nearly twice as many fights as AJ and it's still pee poor.

    Anyway, listen from 3:45, listen until the end, Fury knows just how hard an AJ fight will be, he knew back then when AJ was an amateur.

    I'm not saying AJ beats Fury, I'm not saying AJ loses to Fury but can we stop pretending Fury is now some kind of boxing God that nobody wants to fight?

    Fury went the distance with Wilder who most people believe to be average at best, that fight said
    a lot about the state of both men.

    If you put two average fighters in a ring together and it's a competitive fight, it doesn't make them great fighters, it was just competitive.

    He surprised us all by facing Wilder after just two exhibition fights and losing the equivalent of an extra human in weight and you think he’s ducking anyone?
    Seriously I don’t get the logic on here,Joshua could ditch that A side BS and fight Wilder in the States,doesn’t make it right but when is anything ever right,still think Joshua would get the star treatment wherever he fought anyway.
    Re Fury,how many have we seen where a guy gets dropped twice against against one who stays on his feet get the nod,Fury would of been the champ had he not got silly.

    It is actually AJ and Hearn avoiding Fury and going after retreads like Whyte.

    Why the hell would Joshua ditch the A side he has the belts,after Fury & Wilder I would not want to fight in the USA.
    AJ v anyone is the A side in HW boxing that's the bottom line ATM.

    Lol he is on juice and you need to be blind or british not to see it. Wilder has ortiz , stiverne and fury and that’s imo better than anything that stiff one has .

    It was only the Cristian Hamer fight that he had an adverse analytical finding (elevated levels) which UKAD said was probably from a contaminated supplement. He has tested clean for all his other fights.

    That was because he was following Wilders 50% demand and before Hearn actually approached him with his 3 fight deal that he ( Fury ) declined based on he thought Hearns choices were set ups of difficult guys for someone out so long??? lol

    When two guys don't actually want a fight its far easier making a fight with each other ,which they did.

    Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier split the purse 50-50 for their first fight.

    They did it again for their second fight - 50-50.

    Muhammad Ali and George Foreman split their purse 50-50.

    Larry Holmes and Gerry Cooney split their purse 50-50 (although King paid Holmes much less after the fight).

    Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield basically split their purses 50-50 for the rematch (Holyfield got $35 million/Tyson $30 million).

    Lennox Lewis and Evander Holyfield were both guaranteed $15 million for their rematch.

    Point is, fights tend to be easier to sign if you just say THESE TWO FIGHTING EACH OTHER is THE big fight, so let's treat them equally.

    In the BIGGEST fights, BOTH guys bring something UNIQUE to the table that others don't or the match between the two of them wouldn't be considered THE BIGGEST that can be made.

    Just treat them both that way, and things tend to move quickly.

    When you don't, it takes a lot longer (and sometimes never happens).

    Fury was recently on british tv calling out eddie hearn to make him an offer for april 13th to give the british boxing fans the fight they want. Its funny you say fury is ducking when eddie hearn has said dillian whyte is the faviorite for april 13th despite the fact no contact has been made with team fury? Why wont hearn offer fury the joshua fight on april 13th after fury has requested an offer.... pretty sure the ducking is from matchroom

    This, although I don't think Fury is in any hurry to fight him.

    The Hearns want Anthony Joshua - Dillian Whyte
