AJ has also fought Klitschko, Povetkin, Parker and a bunch of other top-5 and top-10 ring rated opposition..what’s wrong with you and your obsession with Charles Martin?
Besides, Charles Martin is arguably better than nearly everyone on Fury’s ledger, barring 2-3 fighters so what’s your point exactly?Comment

Lopez vs Kambosos: Will Eddie Hearn bid against Top Rank on the IBF-ordered fight?
Eddie Hearn keeps hinting that he’s going to be a player for a Teofimo Lopez-George Kambosos Jr fight. Will he actually do it?
By Michael Woods Feb 19, 2021, 6:00am EST
Arum confirmed that the Lopez-Kambosos bid will be taking place next week, and Lopez’s manager David McWater said the same. “I haven’t heard from Top Rank since Feb. 5,” McWater said. “Nothing much to update.”
He saw that Arum did a video chat with iFL TV, where the promoter said he didn’t think Hearn would bid on a Lopez-Kambosos fight, because Hearn and Top Rank are looking to work together on the Tyson Fury-Anthony Joshua promotion.
“Obviously I don’t think that Eddie Hearn is gonna bid on that fight,” he said. “That’s a ****** way to start a relationship, where everybody is going to look for promoters to be cooperative putting on a Fury-Joshua fight.”
You’ve read between the lines: There is a line in the sand being drawn by Top Rank, and that line now feels more like a trench. Did you see Lopez on ESPN this past Saturday night? The young gun attended the Top Rank show at the Bubble, and didn’t seem in the dumps about how his post-Loma bout is playing out. But he sent a strong message of his own when he announced that he’d be reaching out to ESPN bossman Jimmy Pitaro about his next.
This is hardball playing out right now, and pretty darned fascinating to see, outside looking in. I can’t recall the last purse bid that had this sort of buzz surrounding it.

Hearn has certainly done a good job financially for Joshua and himself , without any doubt but it makes me wonder why there's so much interest in Mike Tyson's exhibitions and proposed tussle with big gloves against sixty year old Holyfield .Is it that the level of heavyweight is so much less than yesteryear, I think so. Joshua won the title against I dare not mention his name twice in four years! and fought Wlad and povetkin both veterans , Parker who was not tested and proved to be just ok. Whyte who has just been levelled himself by a vet. and Takam who was levelled by Chisora .Not to mention being completely dismantled by a short fat Ruiz. Tyson for his part uses his size well but what he did against Wilder who can only punch I wouldn't fancy he could do to even a small but prime Holyfield and how would he cope with a great jab from Holmes , the fighting instinct and power of Lewis and the crushing fast power of Mike Tyson ! We can only watch what is there today but I believe a little prospective is required here as it's more right time right place. Joshua is certainly not up there, Fury might be but isn't yet.Comment
