Fury will also be available after the Klitschko rematch as he isn't tied to HBO.

The only fight that won't happen because of network politics is the Luis Ortiz fight, but I'd rather see Joshua-Wilder, Joshua-Fury, and Joshua-Haye anyway.

"Wilder because he's defended his belt multiple times"

Win over Wladimir Klitschko>Molina-Duhapas-Polish midget

Stop ducking Fury.

I doubt Hearn will be lining up Wilder any time soon. Once he blasts Breazeale, they'll line up Stiverne or Jennings for the 2nd defence. Then it'll be on to the Takam-Parker winner. Only after that will we possibly see Joshua fight the likes of Wilder, Haye and Fury. So next summer at the earliest.

This fight would be huge in my opinion.....massive..think about it, joshau gets at least 650k PPV numbers here in the UK added that it's against wilder and a unification fight and it becomes even bigger and then add the U.S. market as well .mega...it's also stylistically a good fight and should be a slugfest while it lasts..I like this fight
