Easiest way to make this go away is to offer a 90-10 split in the winners favour

Yes, must be, millionaire already in his own right, grown up in a millionaire household and will be getting eight figures to box for 36 minutes, even though he's way out of shape! Very desperate man! Did you see him at your local benefits office or something this morning?

He does sound desperate. He's a fat lad who lives in Anglesey after a payday. Let's not pretend he's Bill Gates. Joshua probably earned more in his last two fights than Fury has done in his career.mickey1975 wrote: ↑04 Jan 2018, 09:27Yes, must be, millionaire already in his own right, grown up in a millionaire household and will be getting eight figures to box for 36 minutes, even though he's way out of shape!

Yep, lives happily there. I can't imagine how he's desperate for anything. Obviously I'm banging my head against a brick wall here... To you he's just a fat lad from Anglesey, to the rest of the world he's the heavyweight champion. That's like me trying to say AJ is just an ex con whos beat a few bums and Furys rejects! They are both top quality heavyweight boxers who are going to make a lot of money together. How on earth can you look down on him? Seriously, what are your achievements in life?dirk2686 wrote: ↑04 Jan 2018, 10:23He does sound desperate. He's a fat lad who lives in Anglesey after a payday. Let's not pretend he's Bill Gates.

Fair play to Josh, he's come a long way from his mums council flat. Maybe that has made him so hungry.

So if Fury never returns, he's the heavyweight champion for all eternity and no other heavyweight EVER can be recognised as a legit champ? Come on, even you must admit there's a point where this theoretical title hands over to active fighters by default.mickey1975 wrote: ↑04 Jan 2018, 10:37Yep, lives happily there.

The Champions League isn’t anywhere near the golden goose for tv companies, the Premier League is by some distance. The consensus has definitely been that BT overpaid massively for the CL rights.mickey1975 wrote: ↑12 Jan 2018, 22:45Who won The Champions League? THE golden goose of British sport.

But yeah, there is no ‘minnow’ between Sky and BT, they’re pretty much equals.

Have you seen the viewing figures for the CL on BT? People have just stopped caring. The average viewing figures for the Ashes this winter was around 80k btw. It's cost BT a fortune and they aren't getting value. Sky didn't bother competing as they know the market for it.mickey1975 wrote: ↑12 Jan 2018, 22:45Who won The Champions League?

Sky are showing the World Cup and 2019 Ashes series both of which take place in England.
You can't really compare an away series to a home one given the time of day when the match actually takes place.

I don't think it is worth counting the Ashes down under as a win. I highly doubt the viewing figures would justify what they paid for it.

Generally speaking I am in the Joshua camp, but this is a cracking post.Oiky wrote: ↑29 Nov 2017, 13:22 Tyson is more than capable of out boxing aj
on here if you lay that down as your opinion then your a proper div it seems
But before the klitschko fight it was the same old chat, then Tyson took everything klitschko had to offer away from him by fighting in a way where klitschko couldlnt even "get set" in the fight. Then it was all wlad lost because he didn't throw no punches, not giving Tyson no credit for fighting in such a way where wlad couldlnt time him for any punches, so couldlnt get a foothold in the fight
Tyson never had a hope in hell vs wlad in many people's eyes, it's the same now with big Joshua the boxing genius, who understands distance and timing so well and uses lots of feints and sets things up to walk people onto shots and who goes from head to body so well, and who moves his head so well and has great defensive movement
Aj can ko Tyson, if he catches him clean, but he'll need to work for it, it's not as simple as "just going for it" it's a professional boxing match not a pub fight or a straightener...
I hate that people take to either extreme, being an AJ fan boy and not recognising the achievement of Fury in 2015, and the Fury idolaters who do not believe he can do no wrong. Personally the jury is out on Fury, and of course would have liked to see him back the win up with the rematch, or fighting another top 10 fighter.
As Joshua showed in his last fight, an awkward fighter (Takam) with decent movement is hard to load up on. You cannot just walk them down. Truth is, Joshua is good at catching his man eventually, so question is, what happens with Fury when he does, and can he keep Joshua out of reach for 12 rounds.

I don't think its unreasonable to suggest that the Fury that beat Klitschko would be a nightmare for Joshua. I also don't think its unreasonable to suggest that we will never see that Fury again and that the Fury that fought Pajkic, Cunningham, Abell etc. would be a heavy underdog against Joshua.Rob3_142 wrote: ↑20 Jan 2018, 21:36Generally speaking I am in the Joshua camp, but this is a cracking post.Oiky wrote: ↑29 Nov 2017, 13:22 Tyson is more than capable of out boxing aj

Joshua would walk in throwing big punches with little to fear about what's coming back,a few flicking jabs on the back foot won't keep him away.
Re: WHO WINS? Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua

I think Fury would have a fair chance. I think Joshua has improved since Fury fought Wlad, but of the two Fury clearly has better movement, and he has the better defence.
The question is whether or Fury can avoid getting caught and hurt for long enough.
Joshua takes more chances than Wlad did in his late career, he does get clipped as a result, but that also means he generates more openings for himself, and he is a good finisher when he has his man hurt.
I could see Fury taking Joshua into the late rounds and frustrating him, and then turning it on when Joshua tires, which I think he would if he is forced to move against an elusive target, but I can also see Joshua catching Tyson relatively early, and finishing him off in the first half of the fight.
I think Fury should give himself a better chance by fighting some tune ups, I suspect this twitter talk is just to hype the fight, or it could be that Tyson doesn't have a lot of appetite for the sport any more, and is only interested in fighting Joshua. I suspect it's the latter.

BT Sport runs at a big loss. It’s all about broadband and enticing subscribers to that and their Sport arm is a splash in the ocean.. It’s possible they might chuck big dough at such a fight although I can’t see it being on anything other than Sky.
Fury needs to have a couple of warm ups first. If he comes back I’d personally like to see him give himself the best chance of beating AJ as opposed to just coming back for a cashout obviously.
