AJ: “I think Tyson Fury is the biggest fight for me,”

I think he’s right. In the UK we love a domestic dust up.. this fight would be HUGE and one thing for sure is the lead up will be way more interesting that AJ/Vlad. If the UK had a 200k capacity stadium that fight would sell it out.

Wilder v AJ is another big one maybe even biggest fight on the world stage that can be made in boxing period.

Im not sure if it is or not but Wilder is going to look like a fool while he fights Charles Martin and Adam Kownacki and AVOIDS the Joshua fight while he fights Povetkin , Fury and other meaningful fights .

I think wilder is his biggest fight. The jury is still out on Fury.
A peak Fury yes i would agree, otherwise its Wilder.

I would really not give him too much credit if he beats a cokehead, steriod using fat **** after a few tune up fights, cause frankly i dont think Fury can hang with the current division after all the stress he has put his body through and being off 2 years. AJ and Wilder tear him up like tissue paper.

In the UK, if Fury builds himself up again. Of course. Brits are big into their hometown boys so it would be huge. It's not like America, where they don't really care where you're from, they just want exciting fights.

Once people see Fury box again we'll be reminded why the fat gyppo couldn't sell a PPV to save his life. He's horrendous to watch so i doubt the AJ fight ever happens.

Fury - Joshua is a mammoth fight. The biggest fight commercially in the heavyweight division, capable of record breaking numbers in the UK.

Joshua v Fury is the biggest fight in British boxing history. The PPV's and demand for tickets would be astounding.

You really couldn't dream up a better fight to cross over to the casual market in terms of the 2 characters fighting. Joshua might be extremely popular, but there's very few people in the UK that doesn't know who Tyson Fury is now either, whether they like or dislike him, he's pretty much infamous, where as Joshua is a star in the eyes of the public.

[tonysoprano]

I don't think Joshua will ever fight Fury. Mainly because the gyppo is clearly a nut-job and will crack under any pressure. He carries on like this, he'll be back on the pills, coke and booze in no time.
