Its a tricky one for him, he could gamble and wait and if Fury beats AJ he's have a crack at all titles from Fury (or if that's non on the cards that could be the sweetener)

Yes could be a negotiating tactic... I'll let you guys fight if I'm guaranteed to fight the winner.

Don't think he'd fancy a third crack at Fury, don't think he could do anything differently. I don't see AJ beating Fury either though.

I'm with you on that Pat. Fury will beat them both, no problem.

I'm surprised Wilder actually wants a rematch especially at the moment, when you consider where he was in his last match against Fury who was in a total mess both physically and mentally and yet he still beat him (with ease).

Wilder has teamed up with Malik Scott and it seems they're working on his boxing skills, so I imagine he definitely thinks he can beat Fury in the 3rd fight - I give him a better chance than most.

Seen a few vids of Fury on the pads in Dallas and he's definitely got some love handles, so he's still not living the life of a boxer and if you watch his interviews during the Canelo-BJS fightweek he seemed to be talking more shit than ever.

Seems to me like Hearn and AJ have wanted this fight but its been Fury holding off, don't know why but just just feels that way. Perhaps as if AJ does lose they would rather it be to Fury than Usyk (bigger payday), 2/1+ about Usyk looks big too.

If AJ fought Usyk I wouldn't be surprised if it went the distance, no way Usyk would get a decision though even if he did deserve it.

I would most likely Lay AJ ko/tko and back Usyk r9-12
