walshie 2,804 Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 I don't get all this talk of Fury vs Joshua. Fury is a disgraced ex-champion who refused to defend his title for various bullshit reasons then had his belts taken off him for drugs cheating.. No doubt a Fury vs Joshua fight would generate a lot of money, but Joshua doesn't need the money any more and he should be fighting legitimate contenders who have earned the right to fight him. Making a few youtube vids doesn't make him a contender. Work for it like everyone else has to. Edited to add: I'm not a Joshua fan, but at least he fights rather than just talks.

Joshua has never once even fought outside of Britain . A unified world champion thats never left the home comforts of his own country ! Bearing in mind aj had a ref that not alowing a shorter fighter to come inside everytime fury had a point deduction ring cheating and lots of other tricks in his way in Germany Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I thought he gave up one of them before they stripped him of it for just that reason. In all honesty I don't think he has the heart for it any more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Joshua has never once even fought outside of Britain . A unified world champion thats never left the home comforts of his own country ! Mick if AJ can fight at home why travel? Now he's champion with various belts contenders should come to him, if memory serves me right, I might be wrong here, but I believe both Floyd Mayweather jnr nor Andre Ward ever fought outside of the USA, does that make them any less of a champion? Personally if I was in charge of AJ I would be telling the boxing world, you want these belts you come here and take them, granted he never travelled to get his, but is that his fault? No, thats good work from his back room staff. Joshua will travel one day all the way to Vegas and get a pay day like some can only dream of, but whats the rush he's a 28 yr old with only 21 fights, he's got what everbody wants, time and the belts.

Stripped of ibf mate and ring belt most recent the others he vacated I think he has got more passion than ever tbh I've seen him up front back in December where he looked great now he's A1 shape he's certainly got the hunger or he wouldn't of bothered getting back into shape Edit to say fury loves bieng The underdog challenger so seeing aj as the man to beat is his motivation Edited April 2, 2018 by CushtyJook Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CushtyJook 1,097 Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 Let's not take anything away from fury or aj the fight needs to happen and either aj needs to fight wilder or fury does ideally fury making the aj fight more lucrative I think aj v povetkin is a waste of time povetkin great but he's to small like Parker wilder or fury only real threat to aj at the moment Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Surely Fury wont be thinking he will just need 1 or 2 warm up fights with no hopers then get a crack at Joshua he will need to earn a title shot just like every other boxer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
keepdiggin 9,208 Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 Think they were hoping David price was going to be his first opponent can't see that now maybe Shannon briggs then somebody like Parker then whyte or wilder then aj Quote Link to post Share on other sites
