I've heard that a few times now mate, but I've watched the aj pulev fight 3 times, and seen him do an interview afterwards, and when asked who does he want to fight next, he says 'whoever has the belt, if it's fury, then it'll be fury'. Not watched many other interviews regarding fury and joshua, but DEFINITELY seen and heard him saying he'd fight fury. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He did, and I made that point before but it went right over the Fury fan boys head..., as most things do. If AJ says its Fury next for me the WBO could have been pressured to strip AJ, as Fury isn’t his mandatory. Ironic really, because the Fury fan boy was first on here bleating about the IBF stripping him because he was contracted to rematch Klitschko and so couldn’t fight the next in line for the IBF belt. Both fighters are on the clock to sort this out asap IF they want all the belts on the line.., and both should want that more than the money in my opinion. Regardless of who wins an undisputed fight, they’ll find it impossible to keep all the belts. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for both, but I only see one side trying to make it happen. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hearn would love nothing more than AJ to fight fury because he knows he'll be a very rich man regardless of the outcome Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Closest fury has been to a real heavyweight fight for a few years was against wallin, and fury was comprehensively beaten in the first half of the fight. Wallin was initially ranked, I think, 45th in the WBO, 'before' the fight was made, then 'miraculously' he was ranked 3rd or 4th after the fight was agreed! Lol. Wallin was too good in the first half, and fury ALLOWED to fight on after the cut, when anyone else would've been stopped, and was able to hold, lean on, and use his extra couple of stone weight advantage to tire wallin. If the fight was judged/reffed properly, wallin should've been the winner of that fight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t disagree with any of what you posted here, but Fury was completely out of shape/form and I believe he would school him today. But hey, sport is sport and it divides opinions. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And let's be honest here, regardless of where he's ranked, wilder really isn't a 'world class" opponent for anyone. Haven't kept up with the bollox lately about fury and wilder, but no-one needs or wants to see a 3rd fight between those two. Sorry mate, I know you said wallin, but I was just commenting on why fury isn't taking on a 'proper challenge'! Lol Edited January 14, 2021 by shaaark 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He’s been out the ring a long time now for someone wanting a big fight. In my opinion it’s undoing the work he put in with Walin and Wilder, for me they were always warm up fights for him to regain his titles. it will all come out in the wash 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wouldn't surprise me if fury retires within the next year or two. As like I said, he doesn't seem too keen to take on someone that could cause him real problems?
