    Does Joshuas team really want it? Is Hearn just using Klitschkos name for publicity knowing all the obstacles will prevent it happening?

    Will Klitschko want to go in as a challenger or will he want to face Browne for the WBA first which is what his team is actually talking to Brownes about right now.

    It does make me laugh that Klitschko v Joshua is seen as a big deal and exciting whereas no one seemed interested in Fury v Klitschko 2. Apparently Klitschko is old and washed up yet this is now an exciting match up with an old and washed up fighter? Those same people would tell you that Joshua would beat Fury but the difference in anticipation is due to the fact they know full well it will be another whitewash against Fury because he's just too good whereas Klitschko had more than a chance against Joshua.
    Ross, for fucks sake give it a rest.

    1. Nobody WAS interested in Fury Klit, undoubtedly that added to his stress levels, aggro from promoters to sell the fight, leading to:
    2. Using Twatter to try and hype the fight, which he should have had someone do for him, all he succeeded in doing was making a twat of himself.
    3. Even more bad headlines because of his pig ignorant and abusive twats, more pressure.
    4. Drug allegations re steroids, and his own stupid statements that he was on Coke (not diet)
    5. Allowing a year to go by without knuckleing down and getting this rematch, arguably his highest ever payday, on.

    Given all the above I think this shit should have been handled for Tyson by his 'team', and he has been left to make a complete cnut of himself by a piss poor management team, I hope they are happy with their little pensions, because that's all they're getting.

    I think he should disappear for a year and come back properly represented, if he can find nobody honest enough to represent him he should retire and take life easy with no aggro.

    Thanks to Fury these two are really the only two in the drivers seat for division and the timing would be way off. I am really beginning to doubt the longevity of Wilder based on injuries alone. Wlad needs to fight yesterday and AJ still has some growing to do. Both can do numbers vs lesser. If it's realistically offered to AJ..fat chance..sure he can take it at early stage of career and time left but don't see it.
