[JollyGood]

AT LEAST TWO FIGHTS ARE GOING TO HAPPEN
POSSIBLY A TRILOGY COULD HAPPEN!

Sky reported: Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury have signed a two-fight deal ahead of an undisputed world heavyweight title fight.

The British rivals have been locked in lengthy negotiations in recent months, but have now finally finalised terms for the blockbuster battle, with a date and venue to be confirmed.

Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn told Sky Sports: "All parties have now put pen to paper and we will be working hard over the next few weeks to confirm the site and date for the biggest fight in boxing.

===========================================

A poll has been added so let us all know how you think the fights will play out. I am going for a Fury win in both fights so there will be no need for any trilogy to take place

Fury has not fought since beating Wilder in February 2020

Joshua has fought since beating Pulev in December 2020

A poll has been added so let us all know how you think the fights will play out. I am going for a Fury win in both fights so there will be no need for any trilogy to take place

I consider Tyson Fury to be the greatest Heavy Weight boxer of this generation, Wilder was hyped for a long time and Joshua was able to attract a large crowd whenever he fights and Tyson Fury was always an odd person with his big mouth and he was an underdog in almost all of his fights and many experts were late on giving him is due respect and with everything i consider Fury can defeat Joshua twice but i am expecting a good fight.

I have been waiting this fight for so long, but there is going to be 30 days to sort the venue, and it must be found in that time or fight will be canceled!
There will be 50/50 split in first fight and 60/40 split in favor of the winner of first fight, and my early predictions are in favor of Tyson Fury and I just love his story from top to bottom and back on top again even better than before.

1st & 2nd Fight: Fury
Just like on others views that Fury would really able to get 2 wins about 2 fight thats if there would be some second fight after he bet out AJ on the first one.
Not to underestimate AJ but i do really believe that Fury would really whooped his ass in the ring but i do rather see that he would make out some good fight
compared into that Fury vs Wilder scenario.

[JollyGood]

Fury holds the WBC belt.

Joshua holds the WBA, IBF and WBO belts

Right now Fury is in a league of his own....

In the first fight against Wilder it was clear Fury was a couple of weeks away from full fitness, he returned to ring a bit early to take on Wilder but that fight ended in a dubious draw when it is clear Fury won the fight despite going down twice.

In the re-match the way Fury toyed with Wilder and made him target practice was sheer brilliance of his technique. Fury is far too good a boxer to be out-boxed by anybody in the heavyweight division at the moment and that includes Joshua. In my opinion without doubt Fury will beat Joshua and on both occasions either by knockout or by TKO.

At last, the battle of Britain is finally on.

I have voted for Fury to win both fights as i don't think the confidence is back for Joshua after that Ruiz lose while Fury just did a masterful performance against Wilder.

But i have not shut the door on betting for AJ if it is very attractive to bet for him, they are heavyweights and one lucky punch could change the outcome of the fight and who knows it will favor Joshua.

[crzy]

Have to vote for Fury on this one fairly and clearly though Anthony is not an easy opponent, i still believe he can make it and I think this is the most anticipated rivalry match, so its good that its finally going to happen. I’m expecting a good fight between this two, can’t wait to watch this match.

[goaldigger]

Can’t wait for the final date of this match and finally, a good fight this year not just one but two fight between this two. Fury made a good comeback and has a good fighting history, I’m rooting for this man since then and right now, I’ll go for Fury. Joshua is a hard opponent and also has a good record, what excite the most here is that there will be a rematch and the best fighter will prevail soon, I’m gonna place my bet soon as well.

[JollyGood]

Now the most difficult aspect of the deal (which was signing the contract) has been completed, the venue and date will be sorted out soon. These fights will generate millions of USD$ for both fighters.

[Darker45]

An exact fight date and a site in a signed contract would finally seal this match. I hope this happens sooner than later.

Anyway, voted for Fury as well for both matches. Furthermore, I agree, no more trilogy on this one. My vote for the rematch will definitely factor in the result of the first match, but for now my bet goes to Fury. I haven't seen the man dismantled inside the ring. As for Joshua, it has already been revealed.

I just wish a large lively crowd would be allowed entry. A Fury fight is a lot more entertaining and fun when there's a live audience.

[TravelMug]

I voted for 1st & 2nd Fight: Fury.

Joshua is good, but he hasn't face a caliber of a fighter like Fury. Very technically sound, good chin, defense is there and of course, also have a one punch knock-out.

Again, this is going to be huge for the heavyweight division, lots of money to be made, and the bragging rights to become the undisputed champion and definitely, the pride of UK.

This is what we have been expecting for so long, see promoters? It is not that hard the only thing the promoters need to do is for the best fighters to be on the ring and fight each other and the fights sell themselves, I would guess Fury is by far the favourite, the victory of Fury over Wilder by being so decisive is probably going to skew the results heavily in his favour, however Joshua is not going to be easy to beat, he does not have the power of Wilder but he has better technique and in a way that makes him even more dangerous.

It appears that everyone is behind the hype of Fury hehe.

I reckon this is what boxing promoters should be doing. Match the world’s best versus each other in a superfight. The coronavirus pandemic might have also caused this also because of falling income hehehe. I speculate the promoters might also do Terrence Crawford versus Errol Spence for 2021.

[shoreno]

so fury has more break times than the other boxer but joshua is more warmed up and still ready for a fight anytime  of the day but fury may need to prepare harder for his body to heat up and get ready for a new match .

I am going for a Fury win in both fights so there will be no need for any trilogy to take place

seriously , that was only your reason for picky that boxer ? but thats a good idea to save money and time if there will be a third match xd but anyway my vote goes for joshua aswell and my pick are based  on my made up reference earlier . second would be for fury because he will try his best now and if ever theres third i think that will be a draw

[Lorence.xD]

That could mean anything, that break could be a good thing for Fury to be fully conditioned and undamaged in any fights but that could also mean that the break could make him a little rusty, we will never know until we see them touching gloves in the ring. I don't have a pick right now but hopefully these fights are going to be entertaining.

[Jackl87]

So far almost everyone voted for 2 wins of fury and i am also one of them. 
If this match would have happened before joshua got knocked out by andy ruiz i would have probably voted for one win each. But that ruiz fight showed that joshua is not untouchable.
Fury on the other hand proved against wilder that he can take a punches and can still get up from that and in the second fight against wilder he made pressure from the start and did not give wilder a chance to act.
It's always possible that fury gets knocked out ouf of nowhere by joshuas hook but i'm pretty sure fury is aware of that.

[btc_angela]

It appears that everyone is behind the hype of Fury hehe.

I don't think it's hype, we have seen him beating the best and it's only Joshua that he hasn't been to clean up the division.

They have been talking about this fight for years, used to be Wilder vs Joshua, obviously, Joshua lost to Andy Ruiz, rebounded and with the second match, while Wilder lost to Fury. So now it's going to be Fury vs Joshua.

Fury by knock out in the first fight, and then decision in the second.

[JollyGood]

It is hard to argue with that view because Fury has the tools to dismantle Joshua round by round but Joshua will not be able to out box Fury in the way he did against Ruiz in the second fight and against Pulev in his most recent fight.

Both fighters will earn hundreds of millions each from the fights but in the end Fury will probably be the one who will hold all the heavyweight belts.

Voted "1st & 2nd Fight: Fury". Despite Joshua looking more athletic, I think that Fury has more speed and power in his fists. Based on wiki info, Tyson fought more experienced guys than Joshua. And he already fought against Joshua-like-boxer - Wilder. Fury just need to repeat his tactics, while Joshua looks to me like a pumped bodybuilder, who trains boxing (despite he has gold in Olympics). Joshua is more Olympics orientated boxer, while Fury is more pro.

I voted just the way you did. I am giving both 1st and 2nd fight for Fury here as well. If that happens, I don't think a third fight is still necessary. Fury is a much better boxing strategist than Joshua. Physically, Joshua seems more fit than Fury but in terms of performance Fury is really much better than Joshua. I am also giving the upper hand to Fury in terms of power. The same way I do in terms of confidence. I think Fury is really a better fighter than Joshua.
