tyson fury could be right. he could well win a fight between the ewo of them. but then again joshua may well be the winner. we will not find out till they actually face each other in the ring, so let's get it on. hope at least the first of there double header fights is somewhere in the uk.
Boxing is getting more and more like WWF every day!
Joshua footwork and speed improved in the last fight, still can't see beyond Fury though
I just think that Tyson Fury is a better fighter/boxer (however you wish to put it) than Anthony Joshua.
Very different styles, so it's crazy to say one is a better boxer than the other. Fury much more defensive/tactical, although he can hit hard and be aggressive. Joshua much more aggressive, although he can defend and box tactically. Whoever you think is "better" just depends on which style you think is more effective.
Styles make fights - anybody who is absolutely confident of a winner between Fury and Joshua is either a deluded fanboy or kidding themselves.
Absolutes don't exist in my opinion but, if anyone thinks that Joshua's boxing ability is anywhere near Fury's level, then they are badly mistaken. If they do fight Fury will (imo obvs) win inside the distance. I dont think Joshua could handle Wilder tbh..
I'm not a particular fan of either but I dont believe its hard to see the difference.

You the same guy from The ring website who’s always wrong on there as well?
Agreed. Could go either way. That's why it's interesting. I think 6 times out of 10, Fury wins.
Fury will win! Anyone thinking otherwise is a deluded AJ fanboy! There’s a huge gulf in boxing skill! The only guy who could worry Fury was Wilder as he had freakish ko power! AJ has not got near that level of power so there’s nothing to fear from Fury! It will be another Fury - Wlad all over again! A master class to a purist but a borefest to the moronic fanboys! And there’s a lot of them!
Fury will never agree to fight Joshua. Wilder was a manufactured champion, fought 39 bums and a 50 year old Ortiz. As soon as he came up against a motivated top 10 fighter he was shown up for the non boxer he is.
Fury has only fought cab drivers since his comeback. I'd put my money on Povekin to beat Fury, he will not fight any top 10. Wilder doesn't fight again either.

Hope it does happen. Like them both and think they're both excellent. I'd back Fury to win, probably via decision or a late KO. Joshua faster and maybe stronger, but Fury with a bigger heart and more general boxing nous.
Fury is the better boxer but aj is the better sportsman.
We shall see.
Don't think I have enough experience to call this one as I don't know anything about boxing nor have any qualifications but that's just my opinion.

AJ is the casual observers favourite and the money maker in any deal AJ uses language that is disturbing and indicative of his doubts about how he defeats Fury in 6-12 months time. He has a very well oiled marketing machine behind him, when you put money above all else its bad news when you fight against a man who does not, and can beat Klitschko and Wilder who owned their belts for 5-10 years..
Fury is right, Joshua is not as confident. The fight will only happen when the £££ can be maximised
This is a real 50/50 fight. If it's on points Fury wins and If it's a KO then I back AJ.
My monies a very small amount will be on AJ just feel like he's matured since Ruiz where all he wanted to do was win quick win a KO everytime.
As good as he is Fury hasn't fought many top fighter's and got exposed by couple of real unknowns....if he's in that position with AJ he's in serious trouble

I really hope your post encourages other people to put money on AJ too so that my winnings on Fury will be bigger.
There are enough good fights to be made without boarding the "will they won't they" helter skelter.
I really struggle to bother with the posturing about the best facing the best, the politicised TV deals and too many belts era is ridiculous. My wife asked me this weekend what the belts being held up on DAZN were, truth is, pointless was the answer..... Interim/Intercontinental/Silver - RUBBISH!

I doubt Fury could beat AJ in 2 rounds, that a bit ambitious and also disrespectful. I think it will be a lose contest, not sure who will come out on top, and a lot will depend on how far the fight goes as I believe the longer the fight goes on the better for Fury.

Wilder is a similar boxer to AJ in that he never really fought anyone away from home and cherry picked opponents at the right time in his career. The only boxer could seriously trouble both AJ and Wilder is Ruiz Jr. and if that happens, you would need to revise your opinion on what you are saying.
I expect to be in a minority but I think Joshua will knock Fury out. I am not naive enough to think Fury can’t win on points but if he does he will run, grab and jab his way to such a win. I continue to believe AJ has a better resume and is not as “chinny” as his naysayers proclaim as he took a lot of shots from Povetkin and we know he carries real power. Anyway, may even best man win.
AJ has power to KO anyone do it wouldn’t shock me. That said neither would a Fury KO or a fury win on points. I feel Fury is the better boxer but I don’t think AJ is a bad one and in the heavy weight game with 2 top heavy weights a KO for either would not surprise me
My personal belief is Furys confidence and insistence he can KO AJ will play into AJs hand and he'll end up KO'ing Fury. I've grown to really like Fury and think if he just boxes he wins but with this fight I believe ego will trump logic and fight becomes a slugfest. AJ walks away victorious within 6 rounds.
Fury’s wins over Wilder and a 10-year unbeaten Wlad are far superior to any of AJ’s wins.
AJ’s wins over Whyte, Parker, Povetkin etc. - not to mention getting sparked out by Ruiz - do not make up for the two elite level wins Fury has on his resume over him.

I'm predicting the puncher outboxes the boxer. People are under rating AJ. Yes he doesn't come from X generations of fighting people, but he is an Olympic Gold medalist. Facts not hearsay.
I completely agree. Joshua has beaten Povetkin, Whyte, Klitschko, Parker, Ruiz, Pulev... all top heavyweights. We really don't know how good Wilder is, he's often behind and gets bailed out with one punch. Other than him Fury has recently fought Wallin and safir Sari, both went the distancw. Cruiserweights like Cunningham have put him down in the past to, his chin ain't all that....
I agree, he has good speed, power and experience. Bye bye gypsy king.
I fear Fury will literally just hug and lean on Joshua for 12 rounds to tire him out, then claim a points win.
Some may see using your body mass like this as fair, but personally I think it's unsportsmanlike and boring.
I want to see technique, guile, and venom. Not somebody 'parking the bus'.

AJ is just fake says one thing dose another, like I don't fight for money? That didn't age well did it AJ.
Fury a clever boxer and quick for a big man. Aside from Klitschko, he has fought no one of repute. Wilder a dreadful boxer. Fury dodged a rematch with Klitschko. He is in this purely for the money and to get out before he is found out by better fighters. Joshua is the better boxer and if he can deal with all the holding and get inside the jab of Fury he will spark him out.
I don’t think AJ is the better boxer at all. I do however think he’s better than some make out and you don’t win Olympic gold been rubbish! Fury is much slicker and more agile however. AJ has only outboxed old or fat opponents and never anyone of great shakes either. I don’t mind either fighter (though I’ll route for Fury) but wouldn’t begrudge AJ winning. Just hope it happens.
Fury has proved he steps up on the big occasion, I'd probably make him favourite against AJ but see him retiring soon after he doesn't have the motivation to reign for a long period against the likes of Pulev, Parker etc

Really ? Tell that to Joseph Parker !
We have already found out that AJ has a crystal chin and that a good soak to the temple and he is like a baby giraffe trying to find his legs. We know Fury can take a punch and get and go on to win. Me thinks Fury smacks AJ good and proper.
I will say the the heavyweight division is very poor with no really decent boxer since Wladimir Klitschko.

Fury and AJ just need to get it on. Gets a bit boring going back and forth. Just fight!!
This fight simply shouldn't happen until we can have a stadium full. If that's 2022 then so be it. What is the point otherwise?
Boxing fans want the fight, not so fussed about how much money it generates.
More then 90% of the money comes from PPV and only a tiny privileged few get to sit in the crowd and from experience you can’t see much unless you are close to ringside. I’ll be watching the fight and not the crowd, so who cares about a bunch of folk shouting, bring it on and do it now!
It’s nice to see so many reasoned comments from people rather than partisan remarks.

Go on.....
Joshua has looked vulnerable in some of his recent fights, although he looked good against Pulev.
I definitely give the edge to Fury; he looks the more rounded fighter who can box and punch. he also seems less likely to be overwhelmed by the occasion.
Should be good though, if it happens.

Fury is not a puncher, look at his record, where are the early knockouts?
Yeah, the guy who's fought nobodies and a paper champion definitely has the egde.

I think that AJ will be taking the knee for a count and ultimately flat on his back for the final count.
It's not easy to call. Fury has a size and reach advantage, and is awkward to box due to his relative mobility. Joshua has more power, and is not as technically deficient or chinny as some make out.
If it goes 12 rounds then Fury has probably done enough to win although I doubt it will have been great to watch. If there is a KO then I would expect it to be Joshua.

Bang on. At last, some sense on the board.
The impression I get is Fury wants this fight and not more, he wants to have beaten wilder and Joshua and be done with being greatest of this era and retire.
Joshua has more to lose because he has carefully managed his career to get to this point and losing to fury will lose everything he has built up.
You can tell by the language Fury wants this and Joshua is more reserved.

You are being disingenuous. Everyone knows that AJ is the one who wants this fight badly. He wanted Fury to win over Wilder for the reason that the fight for undisputed can be made. Wilder wanted nothing with unification of the division. Fury seems to be dragging his feet now and at this same time he tries to make it look like he really want, he is being deceitful here, my friend.
You can tell that Joshua has more of a brain in his head and doesn't blurt out every thought he ever has, that's all the language tells you.
Spot another mug who actually believes everything TF says.....lol.
It’s not going to be as easy as Fury thinks.
Joshua is way way ahead of that excuse making clown ?? Wilder.
AJ has a dodgy chin and he knows it, but Fury still needs to tag him good and proper ...

VK hit Joshua with one of the hardest right hands you will ever see and Joshua got up from that (and won).

If that’s the only way they can get fans present to generate the gate receipts then that’s what they’ll have to do. Other option is to fly 80,000 of us to an island + put us all in to quarantine for 2 weeks + spend millions building a temporary 80,000 seater.... as there won’t be crowds gathering of that size here until next year (yes, 2022!)
I do agree as I believe the biggest UK fight in history (or one of) not on UK soil is a bit of a travesty. However I also think we forget this is their job and no matter how vulgar they have the right to earn as much as possible. £50m may seem enough to us all but if it was any of us and then said £50m or £100m I’m sure we’d all go for the latter. I hope it is not in SA though as I’d love to go.
IMHO Joshua's team will be desperate to avoid it being in the US.
Just compare the track record of the two fighters in the "Land of the Free" - Fury has got results there (even if he had to grind out one or two) but it's where AJ had his lowest moment.
If it ends up in Vegas, it'll definitely be a win for Fury - he's simply the better traveller!

Totally agree. Horrible place only for the money. I lost all respect for fury when he wanted off the bbc sports personality list. ??
It may suit Joshua though, from his comment, because it's the one place you CAN remove someone head from their shoulders!
Why not?? Let them chop a few heads off as preflight entertainment lol

Fury's career is one long borefest, plenty of running away and lying on bang average opponents until they get tired. Two decent wins, one against a sub par and unfit VK and the other the fraud DT. He will get totally owned and put on his cheating arse.
You’re living in fantasy land Mike remember to pop on and say how wrong you were when AJ is lying on his back.

A lot of people are favoring Fury but I'm not so convinced. He hits like a feather duster and his chin is suspect. AJ' s chin is dodgy but not dodgy even to be felled by Fury.
Fury may win on points, but discount AJ's immense physical attributes at your peril.

Fury is much the better boxer. Joshua could just catch him with a massive punch, but I doubt it - Fury for me.
Fury is a dreamer in his own world. I 've just listened to his latest nonsense claiming these fights being the biggest office draw since Ali v Foreman/Frazier ! I'll list the fighters he could never beat Ali, Frazier.Foreman,Norton,Cooper,Norton, Holyfield,Marciano, L.Lewis,Joe Louis, R.Bowe,Dempsey,Ezzard,Johansson,Jack johnson, Moorer etc ......but he might be able to beat Joshua.
AJ is good at combination punches but he hasn’t that one punch power to hurt Fury and he won’t catch Fury with several shots! Fury took Wilders best in their second fight and he didn’t move an inch, AJ or no one else has that power!
If Fury fights like he did against Wilder moving forward AJ will go into his shell! It was a scary sight. The only way AJ can win is by Hearn and the dodgy judges!

Yeah, that definitely wasn't Wilder just making excuses was it? Daft comment.
And a solid chin doesn't get you put on your backside. Sure, he showed great resolve to get back up but his chin got obliterated by that shot.

Fury the superior boxer, bit bigger and longer reach so expect him to come out on top
Just got to avoid the 'big right hand'
This AJ gets gassed around round 7 to 8, gets easier to hit so I'll be looking for reasonable odds on a Fury win in rounds 9-12 any kind of stoppage
That's IF the fight goes ahead. I have my doubts.

Won't ever see those crowd numbers again. The South Africa variant will soon spread globally, rendering all of our current vaccines useless. By the time they change the vaccine we'll have another variant, and so on and so on. Best get used to it because Covid is never going away.
Joshua has always controlled a fight through his reach and physicality, and Fury will take that away from him. Fury has had fight likes this many times and done it all over the world, Joshua hasn't and he and his camp will have to come up with something new and probably aggressive which will come with risks.

You're 100% right, sadly Fury fans swallow his theatrics and discard anything AJ says.
This should be the biggest all British sporting event in history which if properly marketed will be the centre of global attention. Hard to see it being over quickly. The early rounds will be cagey and the stronger man will come good in the mid rounds. Likely to be a points decision with Fury's height and reach decisive.
This fight has to happen next
His chin wasnt looking so hot when a small cruiserweight put him down or when he almost did it himself.
Seriously dont think he has the power to keep AJ off him or the chin to deal with a power hitter who can box (unlike wilder).
Will never convince fury fans of this though. Hes Ali, Tyson, Mayweather & Chavez rolled into one in their eyes.

You must be mad if you think he could beat Larry Holmes (78-83)
Pinklon Thomas, razor ruddock, Larry Holmes, the list goes on. Fury is basically Tim witherspoon.
Ah that old haze of yesteryear. Fury would beat a large number of them. First because a lot of them were relatively small men and his reach would butcher them, secondly his weight would be another advantage. Those guys all lost fights you know, they weren't invincible.

Funny you say that when of the two fighters only Joshua has tasted a KO defeat. Don't care who wins ( I'm not a fanboy of either ) . Just want a good fight.
Joshua is a racist. If you didn't see it already, check out what he said in a speech he made during the BLM protests over the summer. He told black and brown people to avoid using white owned shops, amongst other things. He then refused to apologise on social media. I was a fan of his up until that point. Now, I'd rather watch a laggy free stream online than give him a penny of my money. Go Fury!
Don’t agree with what he said but calling a racist is like saying chocolate makes a great tea pot

Joshua has more to lose because he has carefully managed his career to get to this point and losing to fury will lose everything he has built up.
You can tell by the language Fury wants this and Joshua is more reserved.

It's not easy to call. Fury has a size and reach advantage, and is awkward to box due to his relative mobility. Joshua has more power, and is not as technically deficient or chinny as some make out.
If it goes 12 rounds then Fury has probably done enough to win although I doubt it will have been great to watch. If there is a KO then I would expect it to be Joshua.

I don’t dislike Fury, but if he really is so sure that he has too much for AJ, why is there still a question around whether the titles will be at stake?
AJ has repeatedly stated that his aim is to unify the division and in terms of titles, he has far more to lose. This should be the unification fight we want to see.

This fight may not happen this year due to Fury being tied up with the Wilder rematch.
AJ will probably face Usyk first anyway, maybe in May.
December would be great for AJ - Fury, that would mean Saudi though due to the weather no doubt, rematch at Wembley May 2022 though.
AJ wins both :-)

Hope it does happen. Like them both and think they're both excellent. I'd back Fury to win, probably via decision or a late KO. Joshua faster and maybe stronger, but Fury with a bigger heart and more general boxing nous.
Tyson was born to do this. Been boxing since he came out of the womb. From a fighting family. He's a natural.
AJ is a manufactured boxer. Slightly robotic. Not to say he can't win. This fight should have happened pre-covid. Now we have problems staging it with punters.
Anyways may the best boxer win...

'Boxing since out of the womb'......what a gullible mug.
Given the size of Fury's gob, you'd think he'd be easy to hit.
Fury loves to mouth off, but I don't recall hearing anything about Joshua having mental problems, whereas Fury......

And so the mind games begin ... either or, it’s one fight I will be looking forward to, regardless of who’s going to win ..
and to top it all ... it’ll be one of the biggest fights in history and an ALL British affair to boot .... AND for the Undisputed Heavyweight Title at stake ... c’mon .. who wouldn’t want to see this ?!!
Let’s just hope it actually happens !!

I honestly think it would be throwing a lamb to slaughter if AJ fights Tyson, as TYSON is a smarter fighter but not smart with all his trash talk, I see it going to around 5-6 for a Fury win
