AJ/Fury winner with all the belts or WBO vacated fight with #3 Joe Joyce??

[kingstip9]

Usyk is a great cruiserweight, but an ordinary heavyweight.

I think they are rushing him to the title before he catches a loss against a lesser opponent in the top 10

I would sooner see the unification but you can't really blame usyk for not wanting to wait. He's 33 and has a style that is reliant on movement and high output, he could easily lose a step 2 years from now.

Plus if he waits he could end up fighting for a vacant belt anyway. Fury and possibly Aj could both call it a day after the 2 fights . The winner will feel like he's nothing more to prove

Usyk's Manager: If Joshua Vacates, It Tells Me He's Scared To Fight, Sees Big Risk!

Now why the fuck would Anthony Joshua do some ****** shit like that for? He easily wipes the Goddamned floor with Oleksandr Usyk.

All Anthony Joshua wants is undisputed not money. He is made enough money in the sport already. If he relinquishes his WBO title belt, then he denies his chance at ever becoming undisputed.

Usyk wants that massive pension check off Joshua and that’s why he insistent on his shot.
Joshua has business with fury and if usyk won’t be patient then joshua should give it up and still fight fury.
A guy that has just beaten a journey man in Witherspoon and ex top 10 chisora should not really be interfering with an undisputed world title fight

I'd like to see Fury-Joshua sign a two fight deal and let Usyk fight for the vacant WBO belt. WBO... just another crooked organization that decreases the chance of each division having a clear champion.

Actually I think Team Usyk's insistence on getting their mandatory status enforced is just to gain leverage when negotiating a higher step-aside fee.

The dynamics are intriguing.
What if Joshua gives out the WBO belt and Wilder wins the arbitration to fight Fury the third time?
At that point, will Fury abandon his fight with Wilder and lose the WBC belt to fight Joshua?

Joshua should simply focus on Usyk.

Take the EASY step aside money and wait on the winner with an ironclad contract or fight for the vacant belt for pennies on the dollar and lose against any decent HW not called 'shopworn" Chisora.

Usyk is worse than Pulev. At least Pulev is a HW. The only strategy Usuck has is to run around the ring like a chicken.

Agree, he has no chance against someone AJs size. Just the way Eddie likes it.

He Barely beat old man chisora.
