Comments Thread For: Arum on Fury-Joshua: Fight is 'Dead in The Water' For July, August

[BigZ44]

Eddie's the one that can't get the funding together, but it's Top Rank that don't want the fight.

I mean, the same guys came up with the money for Joshua/Ruiz 2, so I don't doubt they can put this together. I'm pretty confident Fury and Arum don't want this fight next, whether it has to do with the Wilder contract or not, they certainly appear to be the one's that are stalling

If Arum has the time to make another fight, they have the time to choose one of the other sites and make the Joshua fight. Fury's side have been sounding like they don't want this fight for months. Fury making excuses about activity etc. I said many months ago Fury would pull out of the fight. Looks like i'm going to be right........ Quack quack.

Top Rank are negative about the fight. Frank Warren's negative about the fight. Fury's negative about the fight.

Boxing Scene posters: "AJ don't want that smoke."

FFS. Has Joshua not always been clear about what he wants? And has he ever not backed that up? He's fought whoever would fight him, unified titles, taken on his mandatories to keep the belts together, made offers to two fighters for undisputed.

Not sure what else he can do to convince people. It's Occam's Razor... often the most obvious explanation is the right one. You don't need to look for deeper meaning here. Just look at the two fighter's words and actions.

I thought it was all but booked?!?!? Now Bob saying nah. Is this Bob saying nah like Eddie was saying nah about Wilder vs Fury or is this nah like nah it ain't gonna happen. You never know with Bob.

One day after meeting with the arbiter he says this. Been trying to tell you people they were going to lose this.

Yep. No way is that coincidence.

[EnglishOxide]

Talking ****. The fight will be announced the day after the Canelo fight IMO.

Guess Hearn was lying the whole time...

[Rapscallion]

What did anyone really expect given the events which have transpired the last fifteen months?

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

Yep. No way is that coincidence.

Forgot about that actually. Maybe Wilder won in court.

Fury was never gonna fight AJ after that long of a lay off. It'll be Wilder
