CONFIRMED Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury CONTRACTS SIGNED

[TitoFan]

Mark my words .... it will be a disappointment.

Fury will turn up fat and unfocused, someone will fail a drug test, somebody will get injured in training, there will be a judging controversy or a refereeing mistake.

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.

If this fight actually happens on schedule(I think there will be some trickery from someone to delay it), I think Joshua will win it by stoppage, I suspect fury is a bit of a nervy guy who struggles with being the favourite, Joshua seems a lot more comfortable in this role which will help in a big fight like this...

Fury to frustrate Joshua in the first half of the fight and then Joshua goes a bit wild and puts fury down and out in the second half of the fight.

Rooting for AJ.

I think Fury wants this way more than Joshua/Hearn do...

Still no venue named even though Hearn claims he's had 4 offers weeks ago.

Can see both fighters having a tune up fight (Hearn rinsing 1 more payday out of AJ) before this actually happens.

Hope I'm wrong

[Mark TKO]

Sick of waiting now as I'm sure we all are.

Don't understand the hold up now.

Imagine if one of them blows their tune up fight.
