Not been a great week or so for boxing, especially the amateur game.
Imagine going for a meal with Fury? Be there for about 5 hours whilst he changes his mind on what he wants to order.
Fury is playing it smart with the Joshua fight, he knows if it falls apart, people will turn on Joshua even more and put the blame on him for not signing the contract. It’s the exact same thing Wilder done, when in reality, they need to says Joshua’s name and use Joshua to stay relevant.
Joshua’s commercial appeal, snd sponserships and global status is probably bigger than Fury at this stage. Fury better boxer but Joshua’s commercial value is bigger. Fury needs the Joshua fight more than Joshua needs the fury fight right now. ESPN will be praying and hoping that fight goes a head with the massive contract Fury is on with them. In order to pay him his money, they need the Joshua fight to happen, especially with Fury not been able to fight in America.Dunno about that.
The undefeated champ is usually relevant enough without the need of a man on a very clear downward spiral.
He has been a bit of a tit regarding this fight like
No way will he, very much doubt you’ll see him on the usual Boxing channels discussing it. Especially with him been mates with Benn too.Be interesting to see what bellew says as he normally rips into drug cheats. Can’t see him slagging off a member of the hearn stable though.
Nope just a tabletNo way will he, very much doubt you’ll see him on the usual Boxing channels discussing it. Especially with him been mates with Benn too.
What Benns popped for, do you need to inject it? If so, should be banned for life. Feel sorry for one’s who get popped for getting stuff from over the counter from pharmacy’s. Was it Billy Joe Saunders who popped dirty for using an inhaler? Sure it was him or Whyte.
Saunders was a nasal spray (apparently)...only slightly more convincing than Canelo's "contaminated meat" or Shane Mosley "flaxseed oil" BS.. Was it Billy Joe Saunders who popped dirty for using an inhaler?

Joshua wouldn’t beat Fury though mate. Was always gonna be Fury and Usyk to cause him biggest problems.In that respect you make a solid case, however in a boxing sense and looking at the recent records it's the other way, Joshua needs the fury fight to get back on track, and a big win.
I get where your coming from tho, however I don't really look to much into anything outside Athletic performance with most sports, for instance I'm a big ufc fan, watched it for years. The only fighter who's antics I'm aware of outside the octagon is paddy pimlett, for obvious reasons
Don’t forget Tyson an Hughie Fury with tainted meat too. I’m a believer that majority of sports stars are on some kind of PED’s.Saunders was a nasal spray (apparently)...only slightly more convincing than Canelo's "contaminated meat" or Shane Mosley "flaxseed oil" BS.
