If Fury really ****ing does fight Charr....

You watch how people will defend it too. "its just a tune up for Usyk" etc etc.

Surely the best solution would be BT in the UK, ESPN in the America's while DAZN get the rest of the World. Maybe a bit to simple that one through!

I feel like BT PPV by default probably does lower numbers than Sky PPV. Maybe i'm just talking nonsense because there isnt really a logical reason why it should, but still, the numbers that have come from BT PPVs so far have been noticeably lower than what Sky seems to do.

Since when does a guy coming off back to back losses and 3 losses in his last 5 fights get a shot at the HW champion of the world? Aj should be fighting Kownacki or someone else trying to rebuild their careers because that’s the level he’s on.

Since they were a two time champion, one of the biggest draws in the sport, and part of what would generate the biggest money in UK boxing history.

And it's a voluntary.

Have you just discovered boxing? You think there's a queue? There's a pecking order, but not a queue.

that was my point smart guy. Just because he’s a draw to the desperate and gullible Uk fan base, shouldn’t put him in line for another title shot. He should take his limited skills and lack of heart to the back of the line with the other guys trying to build their careers back up because that’s where he belongs.

Lol always makes me laugh how salty some people get over boxing being so big and mainstream in the UK. You'd think boxing fans would be happy that theres a market out there pulling more than its share of the weight in keeping a dwindling sport somewhat relevant. Imagine how ****ing dead boxing would be in the post Floyd/Pac days if it wasnt for the UK producing 2 of the 3 biggest stars in the sport along with the majority of the biggest live crowds and PPV numbers.

I have no issue with boxing being mainstream anywhere. That’s a good thing. I have an issue with undeserving boxers getting favorable treatment just because they have a groupie fan base. Doesn’t matter if it’s a Uk fighter , a Mexican fighter or an American fighter. As a boxing fan, I think opportunities should be granted on what they do in the ring and not because there’s a group of tribal cult like weirdos who follow them.

I agree, but its Fury thats talking about this fight being possible (of course he talks a lot of ****) which is the only reason its gaining any traction. I dont think anyone would have really expected AJ to immediately get a shot at Fury after those Usyk losses. But if Fury/Usyk isnt gonna happen Fury/AJ is definitely better than a lot of the alternatives for either guy, and either that or AJ/Wilder are still by far the biggest fights in the division from a purely commercial perspective.

You can think that, but it's not boxing reality.

Joshua is a commercial draw. So he will get big fights. That's boxing.

And that’s what I have the issue with. I know how it works. But my stance is still Aj doesn’t deserve sh** right now. And it looks like he’s not landing the fight anyway.
