Comments Thread For: Hearn: I'd Love To See Anthony Joshua vs. Tyson Fury in 2018

[club fighter]

Why are they even talking about this fool.

Fury was the biggest scam in heavyweight history, fought nobody on the way up, won ugly in most of his bouts, got put on his azz by light heavy Cunningham, won the belt only by not looking as bad as Klitchko did that night, and threw it all away because he knew deep down he could never be able to defend his belts.

On top of this, drug use and ******ity have kept him from doing anything productive for years.

The fact that Hearn is even bringing him up shows that the UK version of Don King is scraping the bottom of the barrel to avoid having his fighter lose his belts to other world class fighters.

Pathetic!!!

It's not impossible that a 'fit' Fury could win that. Don't tell me AJ is a slick fighter. He's like an oak tree that punches. I could see Takam doing something before the ref stepped in. Dude was really gassing towards the end of those last couple of rounds.

Joshua has a broken nose.

[skinnystev]

"fast eddie" looking for any way to avoid birdlegs so he calls out an inactiv fighter knowing full well the fight will never happen

No he does not

Tapia man!

Most of his abuse came after he had won world titles later in his career and his rage from the past fueled his desire to fight and win, where as Fury's depression and abuse and battle with the media led to a loss of desire, not to mention massive weight gain. It's over for Fury. He has let his body down in a huge way and his body will let him down, not to mention the mental aspect. He will win a couple and then be upset in a fight he is supposed to win because the top level is not something he can reach anymore.

Him and Big Show as an unbeatable tag team...

First fight against the ghosts of Eddie guerrero & Chris benoit. Can see fury feinting and slipping guerreros headkicks with ease then nutting benoit with his herky jerky gypsy style head movement. Before accidentally knocking out big show on the tag in hitting him with a muscle memory tap to the jaw instead of hand

I would like to see this as well, but Fury needs at least three fights to get into good form before it happens. He is so far out of shape and prime form that he wont be ready for this fight in 2018.

[Enzo Mc is SHIT]

The one thing Fury has going for him is that he's not reliant on being in prime physical condition. He's all about skills.

Anyway, not in chance in hell this happens in 2018. I think we will see Fury in a boxing ring again but it'll be an 8-rounder or something to try to build fitness, but he'll get bored and quit again before he ever makes it to a serious fight. He climbed his Everest and the motivation just isn't there to keep doing it.

I thought he looked in *better shape here. Earlier this summer he was massive. https://twitter.com/James_Dougal83/s...40074387427328
