Think they both get beat but fury is the tougher fight

Band A: Pernell Fury would dance around Joshua and make him look silly.
Band B: Joshua would have little trouble in knocking him out.

All I can say is that I'm sad this won't happen, or at least won't happen with Fury at his best, because I would have made an absolute killing on Joshua walking through that big goon.

Pernell Fury

Yes I find it pretty hilarious that there are people out there who would apparently call Fury one of the all time great Heavyweight defenders apparently.

Getting knocked down hard by a Cruiserweight, and winning a staring contest is all it takes I guess

Klitschko lost that fight, rather than Fury winning it. Wlad didn’t throw a punch.

The Klitschko that AJ beat would be entirely different.

Deontay is probably harder to hit, yeah, I know, Tyson is dazzling, etc...

Wlad didn't throw vs Fury because he was made uncomfortable. That would never change unless we are talking about pre Sanders version of Wlad.

Fury is awkward, and so is Wilder to a degree. An awkward boxer is usually harder to beat than an awkward puncher. So, I gotta go with Calzaghe.

Fury’s harder to hit than wilder. More defensive fighter, doesn’t engage as much. Very awkward opponent
