How’s the relationship going with the Royal House of Saud there young Edward? What a prime clod of the first order.....”world domination” lol. “What are we going to do tonight brain?” “The same thing we do every night pinky, try to take over the world!”

I have said on another thread? That I don't think Joshua & Hearn should bother with Tyson Fury and his team anymore.

Fight Usyk, then Ruiz Junior etc.

They should only bother with Fury, when he is actively chasing Joshua.

Everyone wants that fight for the undisputed. If Fury didn't have a title I'd agree.

No shit Sherlock! They played you. You got fucked you over big time. That arbiter works for Team Fury. He's Bob Arum's best friend. The truth is there was never any arbitration to begin with. Those negotiations for Wilder/Fury III was a private and secretive one between the two teams. Team Fury knew several months in advance that they were no longer interested in fighting AJ but they wanted to put the screws to Eddie Hearn and Anthony Joshua and his fans in order to sabotage and undermine the undisputed fight. I bet that Anthony Joshua fans don't believe that Team Fury are very nice people now do they?

Exactly! The little silver spoon brat from Essex got played like a fiddle lol. By the way, what’s the latest on that American takeover????? Heard any news?

Dude, there was a contract with Wilder that needed to be resolved. It was a reality that everybody involved knew about. It would have been nice to see Fury fight Joshua, but you can't pretend this was unforeseen. It didn't sneak up on everybody at the last second.

Hearn knows usyk has to be next, he's just name dropping ruiz, Ortiz (both PBC guys) and whyte to try to get usyks team to accept a lower offer when talks begin.

Lol that "take over" comment for years ago really triggered you didn’t it. He hasn’t achieved it but he’s giving Americans better fights for less money than your hero Al $80 a fight Haymon

Even tho he promotes both - don’t believe Eddie wants Usyk next for many reasons. Usyk could make Joshua look bad as he’s a smaller guy with elite boxing skills. And real chance he can win. Another L for Meal ticket AJ would be seriously damaging to his global marketability.

Old Bobby is the master of blocking fights where he doesn't have full control of the promotion, Bobby wants all the money....

Yeah, Usyk is small and doesn't punch hard but he's a pretty damn good boxer. Chisora was a tough fight because of the physicality and aggression. I have a feeling Usyk might do better against other HWs rates higher than Del Boy.

I could see AJ's team viewing a third Ruiz fight or a matchup against Ortiz as preferable.

Fury and wilder ever want to fight Joshua, they only pretend to, to steal clout and to inrease their value. Haymon and Arum know AJ is the best and they want to protect their assets. Expect another Fury fake draw vs Wilder again which he will be bonused handsomely for.

Then they both will keep ducking AJ while blaming Eddie Hearn. Also expect Lennox Lewis to be rehired to slander AJ and Hearn for a few more shekels. Media manipulation works.
