We need someone like Eddie to SORT THIS OUT!!!

Give Tyson Fury his due. He put in a relatively busy 12 rounds against a limited but risky pro at 37 years old. His cardio was excellent and his punch accuracy was very good.

He'll beat Usyk next time if Usyk is stupid enough to give him 3 chances.

Sorry man but I 100% disagree. The rubber would favour the better boxer and the pace would be slower. Your twitches and bag of tricks or weirdness just doesn’t work after two fights

Yeah there's still a good chance of entertainment and an appetite for it, but we've been around long enough to overlook the hype that speaks of reclaimed primes.

It wouldn't be a rubber match. It's a rubber match if they had gone 1-1 in their previous 2. It's giving a guy 3 chances for no reason, and it'll cost him just like it costs Ezzard Charles who kept beating Jersey Joe Walcott by narrower and narrower margins until he didn't beat him at all.

Turki going to have to part with some serious money for AJ vs Fury. Luckily oil prices have gone through the roof.

I missed Adam Smith, Andre Ward just isn't theatrical

Ward is good, Haye and the other idiot are absolutely intolerable. Had to mute it circa r9.

Very good.

Ricky's right - Haye is terrible !
Not so much his comms, but his random cards - clearly not watching the fights.

I hope Joshua says no I don't need it.
That would be funny.

With Fury calling him out so publicly. He now either fights the fight or is a coward. Smart publicity move by Fury to call him out the way he did.

He's definitely getting increasingly obnoxious as his involvement in the sport goes on.

A coward seriously?
These are grown men, not children.
Joshua can do what he pleases.
Are people still really bothered about what others think of them when you reach their age in life?
I stopped giving a shit at 18.

He thinks he is Mr Boxing, but both Fwank and Eddie can do shows without him.
They will both suck on the teat as long as there is milk of course

It is a weird one. After what he's been through, with the car crash and seeing his close mates dead, Joshua has got the right to be a bit miffed at his two biggest career rivals calling him out to his face after their respective wins (Wilder and Fury) when it seemed almost impossible to get either of them in the ring against him in his prime.

On the other hand, if them calling him out is such a massive insult, what's he doing sitting there ringside for both fights? They're not going to ignore him, are they?

Joshua saying he's thd landlord not Fury,lol. I suppose he is still as he sells out fights at least. In reality he was stuffed by Dubois in his last fight but hey ho.

That's true. He doesn't have to fight him, but since being a fighter is what he does, when someone calls you out like that. It's either fight him or don't fight at all I'd say. Anything else looks like you're scared of the guy.

Doesn't matter in the end. He knows who he is, and so does Tyson Fury, but the only argument AJ could ever have that he was better than Fury is to face him and beat him. If he doesn't do that, Fury was the face of British Heavyweight Boxing in his era, and AJ can shut the f*ck up if he ever tries to claim otherwise.

Without that W he'll go to his grave the 2nd best fighter from his country in his time. If he's cool with that so be it.

He keeps paying insane money, and they can of course use it later on as they please for their own promotions.

Joshua was calling Fury out for years, do people think Fury is a coward for not accepting?

The last thing people saw is the last thing people remember
