Fury schools the robotic chump.

 

[OG Wenger]

Fury gives the big stiff idiot a boxing lesson.

AJ a puncher's chance at best.

Hearns Rock Newman’s Fury.

Love it. Genuinely think AJ has a good chance in this. His IQ is better than Wilder's. If Fury gets past Wilder again, then I reckon Fury vs AJ is 50/50. Joshua will absolutely go to the body. He won't be trying to box with Fury. People who think Fury will smash Joshua are mad.

People who think people think Fury will smash Joshua are mad. Fury will stick and move, never be there to hit and just be the robotic Joshua's absolute worst nightmare.

I have had enough Eddie Hearn for one lifetime and won't be listening to 51 more minutes of him to find out nothing that hasn't been said before.

It must be just an amazing coincidence that this 'news' comes out straight after AJ's controversial comments. One could be forgiven for thinking Hearn just wants to take people's minds off what AJ said by making a (non) announcement. "Look over here. There's nothing to see over there."

You're talking as if Fury cannot be hit. He was touched up by Wilder in the rematch, and was getting touched up by Wallin. Joshua is smarter than Wilder. He won't go swinging and hope.

AJ hasn't got the speed or footwork to cause Fury much concern. He will probably have his moments but Fury UD over a frustrated and exhausted AJ..

This places will literally meltdown if AJ wins.

I'll be cheering on Fury, and make him favourite to boot. Wouldn't rule out AJ or lose my head if he wins though.

Just hope it happens, pref in the UK or somewhere with a good timezone, and we get a good fight.


Will be a lot of upset people whoever wins. It does seem a majority pro Fury crowd on here though.

I think the Fury difficult to hit thing is a myth.

Fury was one dodgy doctor's decision away from losing to Wallin.

I get the impression you will need to be on suicide watch if he loses.

He is more difficult to hit than most, if not all, heavies though. Wlad, Wilder, and Chisora all struggled, and they're good fighters.

It will depend on his focus, and his opposition though. Every one has off nights, and even defensive masters meet fighters they can't hold off. (e.g. Pepp - Saddler. Not that I'm saying Fury is as elusive as Pepp).

But, yeah, Joshua can def land on him. Can he do it hard enough and often enough to win? We'll find out next year hopefully.

Fury's performances have always peaked and troughed in line with the perceived level of his performance. He's always been lacklustre when not threatened,

That's not new.
