I cant see Fury v Joshua happening anytime soon as they both have defences too make and anything can happen at Heavyweight. Hearn wants the Fury v Joshua fight asap which I can understand especially with Usyk waiting inline after Pulev for his shot at Joshua. I still stand by what I said from the start Fury beats Joshua if/when they meet. Fury has Wilder next allegedly then Whyte and he should win both them comfortably enough.Wilder has now been ranked at no 2 by the WBA which was a predictable move by the powers that be now they dont have an American champion, so we may yet still see a Wilder v Joshua fight . Hopefully once this Corona is gone the fights start happening . Ideally let Fury and Joshua deal with there mandatorys first and then fight each other in 2021 . Can you see it happening Mick fury aj as I'm sure I read fury is retiring after two more fights 1 being wilder 2nd white and with this virus delaying things even further will fury still want it with aj then Edited March 18, 2020 by Blackmag Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure anything is going to happen anytime soon with this Corona crisis so Fury v Joshua even further away. Fury has 2 more fights on his contract and I cant see him retiring with the money he would make by fighting on but Fury is unpreditable and may lose interest. The Farmer in question got in touch with Warren and demanded money or said he was going to UKAD with his story. Warren told him where to go so the Farmer instead of going to UKAD sold his story to a News Paper. The case in question was from back in February 2015 and is well documented on the UKAD site and others . Edited March 18, 2020 by MickC Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I thought that was a shame about Roger Mayweather i really enjoyed watching him fight in such a great era for those divisions...he lost to the biggest names but played a major part and fought Chavez,Whittaker,Lockridge all at their best.....if you watch Rogers fight against Vinny Pazienza you see where that defensive genius of Floyd evolved from,Roger was probably a crisper harder puncher than Floyd but obviously he didnt have Floyds skills......shame the Black Mamba is no more,makes you realise how old your getting ! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I reckon he beats Lopez and maybe tank davis but just cant see him beating loma. Never know though he could be the next floyd Loma is a fair bit smaller than these two though, I just hope he faces them sooner rather than later because although he hasn't had many pro fights he's got a fair bit of milage on the clock. It looks like Lopez has priced himself out of the fight, he's huge at the weight though and would be a massive test for Loma. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
