You wait for something for so long, build it up in your mind until you are expecting Ali/Frazier ..... and it never is!

You read it here first!

That's certainly one possibility, although for the sake of boxing and its fans, I hope that's not the case.

Another possibility, IMO... is Fury turning this into Fury-Wlad part II.

The optimist in me says no... that Fury turned a corner with his survival of Wilder's right hand in the 1st fight... and his dismantling of Wilder in their 2nd.

But the specter of a repeat of Fury-Wlad is there... no matter how unlikely.

Fury KNEW he could box rings around Wilder, and negate the big right hand. Does he "know the same thing" about AJ? Hmm...

Fury's survival at all costs instincts could make this into an ugly fight... with Fury refusing to engage Joshua straight up.

Let's hope that's not the case either.
