So contracts are signed by the looks of things for a two fight deal.

Not long now until The Gypsy King smashes the stiff bodybuilder to pieces and takes all his old belts back. :clap2::clap2::rave::rave:

I really, really hope the fights are in this country and not some soulless makeshift arena in the desert, as unlikely as I know that is.

Going to go totally against the flow and say that I think Joshua will do him. Won't be easy. Just fancy AJ

It would be an incredible occasion if it took place in the U.K but with covid it almost certainly won't be. So, I hope the first fight is really close so the interest will still be there for the second one and they can hold that one in the U.K.

The build up if nothing else is going to be brilliant. Can't wait!

I imagine the fight will certainly be either in the Middle East or the USA, unfortunately.
The location and date must be signed within 30 days (as of Saturday just gone).

Looking forward to the build up now, will be very interesting.

Can't wait.

Got a lot more time for AJ than Fury, who basically let a brilliant career down the shitter and surrounds himself with wrong 'uns, but even given that I expect Fury to win.

Will I PPV? Hell yeah.

The Wilder v Fury press conferences were pretty crazy at times, both men liked to insult each other and had to be separated on occasions.
Joshua doesn't usually go for this style, and is usually quite respectful to his opponent.
At least if the 1st fight is in Saudi it will be late evening UK time, rather than the usual mega fights in Las Vegas starting around 5am.

I'd rather see AJ destroy confrontation dodging Wilder first. Still, the Americans can't abide not having a world heavyweight champion, can they? - many of them still consider it as their God-given entitlement, along with guns and pumpkin pie. It will be great that they are spitting blood that their top heavyweight isn't even in the mix.

Thought this was going to be another 'Jahanbakhsh out' thread.

He could get lucky in the first bout. At the end of the day If AJ catches anyone there’s a good chance they go but absolutely no chance he’d win both imo. Could even lead to a mega trilogy fight.

I really like Fury when he's in this kind of mood, he's so entertaining.

"I'll even tell you what punch it's gonna be. I'll give my game plan away...It'll be a check left hook straight to the temple"

I would prefer AJ to win but it would be sensational if Fury knocked him out like that.

£49.99 the rumours doing the rounds, with a 25% discount for the 2nd fight for those who sign up to the first.

I won’t pay that. £30 top.

Watching it in the early hours is not a problem for me.


Boxing hacks have said this week, that negotiations have reached an impasse on the money Fury’s side’s demanding for his entourage.
