Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua on Tyson Fury Fight: 'I Promise You It's Happening'

[Mindgames]

Since Joshua dispatched Pulev, Fury has been relatively quiet. Christmas or not, his silence is noticeable.

I doubt taking 9 to dispatch old Pulev will worry Fury too much.AJ didn't even want to say hes name in the post fight interview.

He shouldn't be making promises like that. There is no doubt he wants it but Fury can be flakey and could retire tomorrw or fight a nobody or join the UFC or WWE or Isis.

Boxing has become the WWE with the rigged fights, fake hype, lopsided mismatches. Its a miracle if a real competitive fight occurs.

50/50 is very fair! That isn't a "flat-fee" offer. However, Fury shouldn't have to contribute anything towards Usyk's step aside fee! That's on Hearn and Joshua!

AJ has been the one doing all the talking. Please where is Tyson Fury, do we need to file for a missing person?

You can't say it's definitely gonna happen because I'm not sure Tyson fury wants this fight. Tyson is a charlatan and he can easily influence his dumb fan base to believe that he really wants it.

50/50 is a joke.

AJ should get 40% and Fury the real champion should get the lionsshare.

This is just so AJ can duck Fury again again.

Don't forget Fury has fought one top-20 opponent in 5 years. He is just happy to get another title shot after doing little to earn it.

What's he going to do if he doesn't fight AJ? Tom Schwarz II? Even his fans will start to ditch him if he fights more bums

Fury vs Pulev had easy points win to Pulev written all over it. Joshua won that in three based on Pulev turning his back. I suspect Fury was more confident watching Joshua knock people out in a round he likes big static punchers.

Go watch all the Fury fights previous to Wilder, he's the most skillful heavyweight not called Usyk (who is pp but maybe too small) and maybe the best heavyweight (we'll see) but there are a lot of Americans high on his last performance. Go watch BJS vs Lemieux and then watch BjS's next fights.

I doubt taking 9 to dispatch old Pulev will worry Fury too much.AJ didn't even want to say hes name in the post fight interview.

You’re talking about different things entirely. I’m talking about Fury barely talking about getting the fight signed. All I’ve seen is him getting some T-shirt made. Joshua is out there saying ‘the fight will happen’.

You’re talking about Joshua’s performance and being a Fury bandwagoner.

Fury will vacate the WBC title and Joshua will will vacate the WBO title. Both these men are desperate for a payday before both their reigns end in 2021.
