    AJ is done. His days near the top of the sport are over. He got whooped twice by Usyk and chinned by the extremely overrated Dubois. Pushing a Fury fight at this point is nothing more than a shameless, disgusting UK money grab. PLEASE STOP!

      I say 'good on him' for coming back to face Fury down the line! Why not? UK fighters get support from their fan base, regardless of their record.

      And people saying AJ 'isn't what he used to be' are the same ones who never liked him and always thought he was a hype job. You can't win with boxing fans, so I'm happy for him either way.

      AJ vs Fury will sell and people will talk their crap but still tune in, even if they 'hate' watch.

        I only really want to see AJ fight Jake Paul.

        Not overly interested in AJ vs Fury at this point.

          That's the sadist in you talking. I will concede that JP brings out a bit of the inner sadist in me too. Let's face it, he's been asking to get badly hurt for a while now.

            I would like to see Jake Paul get absolutely splattered by AJ, to be honest.

            I'd rather see Fury stay retired. No interest at all in seeing him fight again.

              They both sat out 2025 thinking Usyk would drop a belt they could get

                Right, we all know what these two are at this point. Or, perhaps more accurately, what they AREN'T. That's why I hope AJ takes on Fury next and saves JP's beat-down for later. Who wins doesn't matter but it would be entertainment, especially if they both come to fight and really let their hands go (assuming either can still pull the trigger). I will never pay to see this has-been spectacle but I'd tune in to True Geordie's Pain Game watch-along whilst I check up on my emails.

                  Not convinced anyone cares what either Joshua or Fury do; they've both conned generational money so can surely stop now.

                    AJ has nothing to lose at this point, and this can line both pockets of Joshua and Fury, so why the hell not?

                      Massive fight so will probably happen. Will appeal to their greed and egos.
