Thread: Joshua/ Furry twitter beef - next year then?

Looks like these two are drawing towards an inevitable showdown

Next year maybe?

Anthony Joshua's Twitter spat with Tyson Fury gets personal*

I like both fighters and there paths will inevitably cross.

AJ is the real deal but Fury is crazy and single minded enough to beat him. Fury is dangerous and unpredictable.

I like AJ, and he hasn't done much wrong since he turned pro. But he needs to STFU about Fury until after Saturday night. He's fighting for a World Title on Saturday and he's got time to fucking tweet Fury? He needs to fully focus on the guy in front of him. NEVER look past your next opponent.
He's getting himself wound up over a possible fight that is 12 months away at the very earliest. He's gotta stay cool because that is what will rattle Fury.
and all those people that come on saying "in the week leading up to the fight , he has loads of free time, he's bored!" , will be the same people that if he loses on Saturday will use it as an excuse.
Don't make any excuses, go out and do the business.

Even though I like AJ for some reason I would still want Fury to win if/when they fight

If AJ wins there is no way his first defence will be AJ. Hearn will milk him and do a Wilder type tour of lame defences on ppv.

This is the main reason I want Fury to beat him. Tyson has taken on the best and beaten him on his own turf.

With respect Master, you do get carried away (almost as much as Ross). Fury had no choice but to go out there. He doesn't have the clout behind him to bring the Champion to the UK for his challenge. He had a great night and fair play to him . But what's happened since? Nothing mate, you need to calm down and see how things pan out.
AJ has the clout behind him to bring the champ over, Infact the champ virtually begged him to come here. What happens after that , we'll have to wait and see.
Another example of you getting carried away, when it looked like Hearn had turned this fight down, you were saying it was the right decision and AJ Was inexperienced.
Now you're saying AJ KO's Martin Early!!!!
Come on mate, less knee jerk please.

It is too early for a title fight not the fact that it is Martin.

Clout or no clout, fury did the business and is the real heavyweight champion of the world. This is fighting for the scraps.

To be fair, the clout needed to take a champion like Martin to the UK will be a lot less than what would be needed to have gotten Klitschko over here for Fury though. And I guess Fury's lack of activity is waiting on Klitschko deciding on whether to enact the rematch clause? Saturday will be interesting as I don't know anything about Martin but AJ seems quality!

If AJ gets past Martin then at least Fury v Joshua is an exciting British fight.
No a clutch fest .

Why dont you see an early AJ KO? Honestly think its a sure thing. If Whyte was to fight Martin Id fancy Whyte to beat him.

Whyte is always going to struggle with a jab or movement.

I never said I couldn't see an early AJ KO. Having seen AJ fight , I think we could expect anything and yes an early KO is highly possible.
My point is that one minute somebody thinks it's all too early for AJ and he's inexperienced, the next he's gonna win the World title with an early KO!
The reason I wouldn't be surprised at any outcome is because we don't know a lot or have seen a lot of Charles Martin.
Others who have seen little or nothing of him automatically think he's shit and he's getting KO'd. How do they come to that conclusion?

Yes he is inexperienced and yes he should win a world title by early KO. Winning a world title is so easy nowadays. Yes people havent seen a lot of Martin but from the videos on youtube its pretty clear he doesnt look the same level as AJ or the top heavies.

You could be right. I just think that in the UK in all sports the hyped up confidence borders on lack of respect for the opposition.
