Joshua is scared of the BIG fight-Wilder and now Fury. That much is clear now.

Am I missing something here, is this some sort of joke or an attempt at sarcasm?

Quit making excuses for Joshua. He ran from Wilder and now he is running from Fury. lol...

So fury is fighting wilder in July now it seems, contracts signed.... I'm surprised they couldn't agree to get wilder out the way, fury should win pretty easy but there's a small chance of wilder landing something lucky and fury not getting up in time :S

Maybe we'll get wilder v usyk for all four belts later in the year.

If I was Joshua, I’d be pretty pissed off with the Fury mob.

He has done nothing wrong, and had to listen to Fury and his team shouting their mouths off in the press to make the fight. Then listening to them say it’s not happening, then listen to them saying it is happening and trash talking him .... while all the time they knew Wilder had a cast iron third fight contract signed and legally in place.

You can't help but wonder that it's written in the stars that wilder lands and sparks Fury.

There's a part of me now wants them both to get sparked and miss out on the huge pay day.

Same way I view it. I went from giving equal blame to wondering what can AJ do if anything?

Me too.
Let Wilder lose every round, then spark Fury with a lucky shot, Usyk run hide clinch & potshot AJ to a win.

Usyk clowns Wilder in a unification who finally just leaves us alone, while Fury gets reintroduced to Mr. Jack Daniels & Mr. Jimmy Bean while AJ ruptures a few of those giant muscles



I think I'd be ok witha small Usyk running the show for a minute. At least when he say he makes a fight- it actually happens.

To be fair both sides negotiated knowing the arbitration case was hanging over the whole thing. Probably both sides thought that Wilder didn't fancy the fight and was only pursuing arbitration so that he could put a spanner in the works and be able to demand step aside money to let the fight go ahead.

If the reports of a hundred and fifty plus million site fee from Saudi are true then you can see how that would have blinded both sides to the Wilder situation. They would have been thinking we'll just pay him off and give him the option of fighting the winner and if you believe Arum that's what they offered him. But for whatever reason Wilder actually wants the Fury fight even though he'd be better off taking the payday and waiting for a bigger fight with the winner.

Andy Ruiz calls for Anthony Joshua trilogy fight after Tyson Fury signs to face Deontay Wilder

Andy Ruiz Jr has called for a trilogy fight against Anthony Joshua after the Briton’s undisputed bout against Tyson Fury collapsed last week.

Joshua has been left aggrieved after an arbitrator ruled that Fury must honour a previous contract and rematch Deontay Wilder next.

Joshua’s promoter, Eddie Hearn, has accused Fury and his camp of purposefully dodging the bout, despite months of protracted negotiations.

Fury signed his contract to face Wilder live on ESPN last Saturday before Josh Taylor defeated Jose Ramirez to become the undisputed champion of the light welterweight division, Joshua, who holds the IBF, WBA and WBO belts, has now been ordered to face his mandatory challenger Oleksandr Usyk as a result, with negotiations ongoing for a London stadium bout later this summer.

If Joshua does not agree a deal to fight Usyk, he will have to vacate the belt, however, Hearn said no options are being ruled out and revealed a third fight against Ruiz in the US remains a possibility.

He told iFL TV: “In an ideal world, if there’s good business to be done with Oleksandr Usyk, it’s got to be good business for him as well, that’s the fight next.

“I wouldn’t rule out any scenario at the moment for Anthony Joshua. We’ve probably got 10 days to decide what we’re going to do.

“There’s quite a few (options). If you’re going to America, he’s already messaged me, it’s like deja vu, Andy Ruiz. He messaged me on Instagram and said: ‘I’m ready, let’s do this, AJ v Ruiz three’. That’s a fight I think we’d be interested in, if you’re going to America, Luis Ortiz is another guy you could fight.

“If you’re doing the UK, I don’t know... Dillian Whyte, that’s a fight to make.”

Joshua reclaimed his belts from Ruiz in December 2019 after a spectacular upset in their first fight. The Mexican has since teamed up with Canelo Alvarez’s trainer, Eddie Reynoso, and made a belated ring return against Chris Arreola earlier this month.

How am I making excuses for Joshua? Wilder didn’t want the Joshua fight and lied through his back teeth. FACT.
And team Fury supposedly negotiated a fight with Joshua knowing there was a possibility that they would have to fight Wilder. You do know that it’s Fury that pulled out?
