    Do you think BT/Sky would work together like HBO and Showtime did?

    This would be the biggest fight in Britsh boxing history i think, by some distance. There might just be enough money in it to make them consider a joint broadcast.

    The PPV sales would be insane. They are genuinely household names.

        You're likely to see Usyk vs AJ before Wilder or Fury.

        AJ losses to Fury, Wilder and Ortiz and its why you'll not see them happen anytime soon.
        ^^^^

        This right here. Fury dances circles around AJ, and AJ doesn't get up from that bomb Deontay landed. I expect Joshua to fight either the winner of Whyte-Chisora, or Miller if winner isn't ready, then the other before taking on Usyk. We might get either Fury or Wilder against AJ in 2020.

        Meanwhile, I can't wait for the rematch. Fight of the Year

          This fight isn’t going to happen. Warren hates Hearn family and this isn’t just about AJ/Fury, this goes back to the Eubank senior days. Warren would want more or equal money which is never going to happen. Hearn would never allow Warren to get a 50/50 for that fight.

            larry hating on wilder as usual in order to defend those western europeans. the fight was a draw and we all know in a tie the advantage goes to the guy who scored the knockdown/knockdowns. it was a robbery

              Oh yeah they would work together, there isn’t really a rivalry per sa. Sky rules everything here. BT have money but they are new in the PPV market. And am sure they would do a deal together. The issue would be the demand of the split from both promoters. Hearn would prefer to do the fight now before Fury gets even match fit. Anyone thinking he wouldnt do it now doesn’t know much about boxing.

                Youd hope so, but I could see Sky taking the stance "why should we".

                  Fury took wilders soul last night, so much so they are talking about fighting someone else

                  Fury would end the aj train too

                    To be honest I actually don't have a clue. Will Wilder & Fury just re-sign as they know its an easy deal to make. I'm leaning to this option.

                    Whilst Hearn has been ****ing on about getting Wilder to Sign for April.

                      Fury is clearly match fit now. He just went 12 with Wilder. However I do agree he is likely to get better and by next spring/summer he'll be tip/top.
