    5 years? That would mean he would of still had less fights than Wilder would had before he faced somebody anybody had heard of.

      I don't actually think? Joshua has the style to last as long as Kiltschko or even Lennox Lewis.

      Neither Fury or Joshua do 'Even though they are super-heavyweights, they burn a lot of nervous energy'.

      Fury's fight vs Kiltschko was fought at a low intensity, but he was still fatigued.

          He will likely fight until 38. 5 years goes fast and fights don't get madeveasy. Plus he will still be good at 35 and 36.

            Yeah, I agree.

            The guy has been fighting under a HUGE weight of expectation since the Olympic Gold that not getting a KO is considered him failing. Its a joke.

            He should get the two Fury fights out of the way, at least. Become undisputed and become a pundit. Sky Sports will snap him up quick time.

              That’s probably Ł100m? Enough to retire

                We shall live we shall see. I wonder what he says after losing horribly to Fury.

                  He’s going have to get past Fury first now, doesn’t he?
                  Of course, he has the remain piece of the puzzle.
                  Hez going down as well.

                    The Fury fight is for legacy, I wouldn’t be surprised if he went after the 2 possibly 3 fights with him.

                      5 years seems a long time as that would be 10 fights at his current rate (barring covid delays)

                      Can’t see him having more than 4-5 fights over maybe the next 3 years then out!

                      Two vs Fury, the odd mandatory here and there, Wilder, Usyk maybe Joyce?

                      There’s isn’t much out there for him and the outcome of the Fury fights dictate massively how long his career goes on!

                      Loose both and I think he will bow out, win both and there only 1 or 2 other fights worth having
