That’s how you know Joshua will win as this mans prediction has never been right about AJ. Every prediction he and his son have made about AJ since he blew up has been wrong.

John Fury said before he doesn't want Tyson to fight him, keeps going back and forth. Always been some jealously from them towards AJ. Probably because of the acclaim, fame and money he's made, came after Tyson and became a bigger star.

As far as a potential fight, that's what everyone wants to see. Looks like the next obstacles will be Wilder and Pulev, if those 2 fights can be dealt with then a chance of making it. Wlder always has a punchers chance and AJ could underestimate Pulev so you never know, but if those 2 can be dealt with could see it.

Would be a great fight, I was thinking about it earlier, I think it's most likely it goes the distance either way. Anything can happen but in my head I got either a points win for Fury or AJ and maybe a knockdown/s and there's a chance he knocks him out but think points win for either would be most likely. AJ will want to knock him out though. Tyson I don't think can do what he did to Wilder vs AJ, AJ is heavier and he can throw back more of a variety of punches.

For an example, the body shot that knocked Wilder down, I don't think that knocks a man of AJ's stature down, he's too heavy and has better balance than WIlder and stronger legs. AJ has also better short shots and a hell of an uppercut too. If both can come through their next fights it will be a fascinating fight and it's unpredictable what happens.

People are so fickle in boxing, they change like the weather after every performance. It's not gonna be what everyone thinks, I think it will be a high level fight. My prediction would be a points win possibly for 1, but that it may come with knockdown/s. Fury has proved he can get up from big shots and so has AJ, I guess there could be a ref stoppage, but a clean knockout for Fury is hard to see me, and even AJ knocking him out, while it's possible I know it will be hard to put Fury down.

Hopefully it happens, at least twice, as that should be 1 of the defining match ups of this era at heavyweight.

Was a good interview, spoke about Ali, Mike Tyson, Mark Breland etc. Worth checking out.

I'm very pessimistic that this fight gets made before at least 2 years :shaq2:

setting low standards so I get psyched if it does before then :mjgrin:

Rumour out there Joshua signed to fight Kubrat Pulev :francis:

It's not a rumor, Pulev is the mandatory, he definitely has to fight him if he can't get the Fury fight next, he will fight Pulev unless there's a way to make Pulev and Wilder step aside, which is probably unlikely, Pulev will be easier as it's in house for Arum but Wilder isn't so would be harder to make happen.

Hard to pick against Fury, he'd be the favorite here, rightfully so but I think AJ would stood a much better chance than Wilder, he would make it a lot harder to Fury. AJ and Fury are the two most versatile HWs out, it would be exciting to see

Lol John Fury is the most entertaining man in boxing. Funny thing with his interviews is he'll say a lot of realness and then just start waffling nonsense.

This was a classic, starts going off on everyone - Bellew, Klitchkos, AJ, even starts hotting Kugan at one point :russ:
