Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua vs. Oleksandr Usyk Coming Together For September

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Anthony Joshua fight with Oleksandr Usyk has been pushed back to late September, according to Eddie Hearn. Hearn says Joshua's fight with Usyk, the WBO's mandatory contender, has basically been agreed, although it will not now take place, as had been expected, in August. Wembley Stadium or the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, where he had originally been due to face Kubrat Pulev last summer, are the two possible venues.

This is an intriguing fight. It's probably safe to say, sadly, that Fury vs Joshua won't happen in 2021, but hopefully will happen some time, in front of a large crowd in England.

The best outcome in my humble opinion is that Wilder and Ussyk wins.

Joshua really isn't fighting enough... don't see why this couldn't have been early August to then fight again December and actually be active... that's basically what they were talking about with the Fury fights.

Its a good fight but both of them are so disappointingly inactive these days, so are Fury and Wilder. Looks like they're all fighting once this year.

If Wilder wins all hope of unification is gone, how many has he declined against how many champions going back to the Klitschko's if there was a belt for avoiding unifications Wilder would get it has any champion ever knocked up so many. They interviewed one of the top PBC guys and he spelt it out if Ruiz had won the rematch no one outside the PBC would see those belts again. Pre Fury Wilder would only defend in the States against Haymon/King fighters not a single Top Rank, Matchroom.

If Usyk wins you can't begrudge him though on paper Usyk vs Fury is one for the pure-ist.

There would be mass suicides among the sweet Caroline population…..the council estates would rage with violence, and all the Edward Hearn worshippers would drink spiked Vimto….

AJ starches him in 9rds. He needs to come in aggressive behind his powerful jab.

That's just too long for us to get the undisputed fight for 2021, With that said am out... Phuck all of them at HW that denied us that fight, because no way is it happening this year.

Who cares about the past whatever he turned down if he wins him and Joshua shall fight each other next it's a fight people been clamoring for YEARS. AJ turned down the fight too in the past but people don't bring that up or changing networks from showtime to dazn. All that I've mention is irrelevant right now. Keep negotiations behind closes doors both parties like they did Wilder vs Fury 1. Fanboys love talking about money they dont got.
