Comments Thread For: Arum: If Joshua Faces Fury Next - It Would Be a Massacre!

[joe strong]

C'mon Bob! Let's be real here. You're copping out! Just admit that you don't want the fight to happen. It's just that plain and simple!

Of course he don’t he wants Fury back in the US where he has a say in things.

Why does Arum always sound so negative about the Joshua fight it's really bizarre...

I’m not sure how much $$$$ he makes when the fight isn’t on US soil. Queensbury is his main promoter & maybe I am wrong but I think Top Rank is only his US co-promoter. I’m not sure if he has a stake in anything outside the US. Again I’m not quite sure if I am wrong on that though.

You don't have to be a genius to see through Arum's B.S. For whatever reason, he is resistant to the fight, but it's certainly not out of concern for Joshua. If he thinks Fury wins easily, he should be eager as hell to make a fight that is guaranteed to generate a lot of money for everyone involved.

I’m not sure how much Top Rank is involved if the fight ain’t on US soil. He is his US co-promoter. Espn picks up his fights so Arum gets an envelope but to what extent TR is involved outside the US I really don’t know…

Bob Arum is right once again, the man is a genius!

I'm not so sure, I think Joshua would present an unexpectedly difficult fight for Fury.

Obviously would favour Fury, but I don't think it's an easy fight.

If I might paraphrase the great Yogi Bera,

“Boxing is 90 percent mental. The other half is physical.”

I really think the Josh who fights fury in December 2022 is the best Josh ever. Id expect Josh to be strong mentally, id imagine Josh would think he can beat usyk in a 3rd fight. Just like I'm sure jmm thought he could reverse the Pac losses

What are some of you people smoking? AJ is stiff and slow, Fury would ****ing toy with him and either KO Joshua or embarass him on the cards. Hopefully the fight does happen and Fury destroys AJ so AJ can **** off forever and leave the division alone. Guy loses twice and all of a sudden gets a shot at Fury?

[Silence]

No one wanna see Joshua's corpse in the ring. Fury can fight at his 50% and KO him.

Bobs right and wrong,........it would be a massacre at any time .It's a tricky one for young Edward , on one hand he's always wanted the Fury money on the other hand his golden goose has just lost back to back and was only three weeks ago on the verge of a breakdown.Plus Edwards not calling the shots.If they run from this they will lose even more face .If they stay he gets hammered !

Aj has almost no confidence left, his aggression and killer instinct are at an all time low.

Even if he drops fury he would still lose the fight, fury would get up and put a beating on the fragile AJ.

Fury wins and probably easy but it isn't a bad stay busy fight for fury before usyk, many worse fights out there.
