    Fury fights Wilder.

    I doubt Joshua has any better choice than Usyk.
    I agree, there is nobody else to fight.

    Ruiz Junior III?

      I suspect he'll fight some 40 odd yr old, maybe Ortiz.

        I am beginning to think? That Eddie Hearn & Joshua should not fight Tyson Fury.

        Because of how Fury's team 'Have played them both'.

        I don't think they should face Tyson Fury, until Fury is actively chasing them.

        Because lets face the facts, Tyson Fury has never ever been eager to face Anthony Joshua 'I don't think Fury is afraid, but for whatever reason? When it comes to Anthony Joshua he has danced around the prospect of fighting him.

        I still think Fury can beat Joshua, and I am not really that impressed with Joshua's performances of late.

          ‘Eddie Hearn has revealed that Andy Ruiz Jr DMd him asking for the Anthony Joshua trilogy after the Tyson Fury fight collapsed. Hearn said: "It's like deja vu, he Instagram messaged me, 'I'm ready, let's do it, AJ vs Ruiz Jr III.' That's a fight we'd be interested in."‘

              Its only losing popularity with the PBC because they would rather pretend to be undisputed than to actually make the fights.

              The WBO is also clearly better than the WBC and WBA at this point. The WBO doesn’t have five champions in a single weight class like those two.

              Its really disgusting that you’d rather boycott the WBO because Al Haymon wants you too.

              Hopefully it's the start of a boycott, lead by the heavyweights. I doubt it, but that would be nice.

                Interesting so two trilogies. Wilder vs Fury, and Joshua vs Ruiz Junior.

                I would say that Ruiz Junior III is a good fight for Joshua, just in general as fighter 'He won the rematch, but he did not entirely Slay the Dragon'.

                Joshua for me, is still working through his trauma.

                  High chance AJ gets TKO'D. You can fix judges, ref's, but you can't fix the canvas. Matchroom has matchmakers and their matchmakers are saying no for one reason and one reason only. Look at Bruce Trampler for Top Rank, the man is a genius. Matchroom has their own Trampler.

                      He said that was an option but Usyk is still the most likely option.
