I hope he gets to fight Usyk for a unification belt. And then maybe Joshua just to shut the latter up for good.

That's my hope too.

Would prefer it if Joshua convincingly beats Usyk in their rematch then Fury fights Joshua.  Would actually then make sense for Fury to retire, as there would be nothing left for him to tick off really. 

Despite Joshua's recent struggles, it would still be an absolutely huge fight, with all the heavyweight belts on the line if Joshua were to beat Usyk.

Agreed, I can't see either of them challenging Fury, but think AJ stands a better chance.

Having said that, I think Usyk has AJ on toast. That fight wasn't a Ruiz-style fluke, it was a schooling. I can't see it, but I hope AJ regains his belts.

Then Fury vs AJ. For all the belts. At Villa Park 😁

I think Fury would only want a unification fight vrs Joshua as his next, and final, fight.
He certainly won’t want any mandatory challengers.

Yep no way on earth is Joshua winning the rematch. He's just not a good enough boxer.

If Fury has now finally retired, the good news for all of us, is we won't be hearing him sing 'American Pie', it was one of my favourite songs, now I hate it >:(

There's nothing soft about Fury's singing!

So, Dillian Whyte is saying he only lost because Fury pushed him after the knockout punch?
He was ok with giving Fury the elbows and head buts, though!

There's a decent bill on Fightzone tonight, and it's free.

Tonight Katie Taylor v Amanda Serrano is been called 'The biggest fight in the history of women's boxing' taking place at Madison Square Garden. The bad news is on DAZN, so you have to pay for it.

Kell Brook announces his retirement, I think he really means it, unlike a certain heavyweight, who I am pretty certain, we will see again back in the boxing ring.

It was a Don McLean reference as much as a Fury one. :)

Bivol is going to give Canello a heck of a fight 🥊 I imagine they won't let the Russian win if it goes the distance .

I'm glad they scored fair and how underestimated Bivol is now boxing world sees he's great
