Did you watch the fight on Saturday ?

Firstly Fury would not stand in front of Joshua and walk in straight lines like every knock over he has fought so far plus Fury would actually fight back.

I have never been a huge believer in Fury like other posters but the fact is he is now the No 1 Heavyweight in the World ...... No arguments.

Joshua's opposition has been poor he fought a joiner in his last fight FFS. He is compared to Bruno a lot but he has yet to have his Jumbo Cummings moment yet.

I also think they will go the WBC route. Joshua is already number 2 in their rankings without fighting a top 50 heavyweight yet ( Whyte is actually 43 on this site ). For me I reckon he should fight Helenius v Teper winner for the Euro and then I reckon get Stiverne in a final eliminator for the WBC title he took everything Wilder had would give AJ some rounds at least.
