[BOXING POLL ADDED] FURY vs JOSHUA: A Two Fight Deal Has Already Been Signed !!

[ReiMomo]

The majority win and I think Fury is the favorite boxer here, with the vote of 37 at this moment.

But sad to say that Fury won't able to fight Joshua just because of what the promoter said. However, I'm excited about who will be the opponent of Fury at this time, I'm still guessing on it if that is Deontay Wilder Trilogy, it is a good fight.

~snip~
Joshua's opponent is just boring. sorry about that.

It's well said.

I think is about more than money. Fury vs Joshua is the blockbuster money fight that we all want because the winner will be undisputed heavyweight champion of the world holding all the belts. The only person trying to make the fight happen is Eddie Hearn because he will earn lots of money but the fighters do not seem too bothered about getting behind the fight.

Why has there never been an announcement about exactly which country the fight will take place in? Hearn claims a deal has been signed but he never actually stated which country will put up the money to host the fight. The deal that they signed 6 weeks ago expired on the 4th week so technically they are not obligated to fight each other any more.

I think the fight will probably not go ahead this year, Fury will fight another opponent (maybe Wilder) and then Joshua will fight the mandatory challenger Oleksandr Usyk.

I thought it was already signed, now we are hearing bad news?

I was thinking that we are going to witness this fight soon, let me guess, is it again about the money?
For sure if they will get their expectations on financials, nothing would come as a problem in this fight.

Lots of good matchups this year that will not happen and they involve Bob Arum.

first, the Crawford vs Pacquiao which was recently off. now, this one.

The latest news seemed more optimistic. Frank Warren who is Fury's co-promoter said that they now have the contract for the site deal in Saudi Arabia. It seems like everybody in the boxing media has an agenda in favor or against certain promoters so this could all just be spin. These could be non-legally binding contracts, which is something Bob Arum had complained about earlier. We have also seen Fury trash talking Eddie Hearn this past week so if he doesn't like the contracts he could easily just call the fight off.

News being leaked is the Fury vs Joshua fight might not go ahead. Bob Arum (promoter for Fury) said it is "dead in the water". Bob Arum already cast doubt on this fight going ahead asking why Hearn is being secretive about the location.

Finally, Eddie Hearn (promoter for Joshua) admitted today in an interview that if he cannot get the deal done by the end of next week Fury could have a blockbuster trilogy with Wilder and that would mean Joshua fighting mandatory challenger Oleksandr Usyk.

There is £200 million attacked to this fight so all parties should be making sure it takes place but Hearn is being secretive for reasons not yet known: Daily Mirror Sports Page

I read that news as well and what can I say? This is incredibly disappointing, we want to see a reunification match, we want to see the two boxers currently holding world tittles going at it with everything they have, Fury going for the trilogy against Wilder is the logical move if this fight does not happen and I am sure Wilder will jump at the opportunity to recover his tittle and beat Fury, and in the case Wilder won, something that it is unlikely if the previous fight is any indication, then a fourth fight will be needed to see who is the best out of the two.

I guess Wilder has lost that opportunity before by delaying the fight, now that Fury vs Joshua fight negotiation is not going any better, then probably Wilder had to clear his mind and a man to accept his previous defeat so he can prepare for this fight. This is a trilogy, a fight where he can prove that he is still here, and if he beat Fury, then he will gain the respect of the fan again, simple as that.

It is sad. I was so glad when it seemed that this match would be organized and carried out very quickly, but now everything is returning to the old schemes - painful negotiations for several years and the fight when it may have lost its relevance (or just annoying due to a long wait). By the way, it will be funny if one of these two boxers is defeated in intermediate bouts, given the fact that their opponents are serious, this is very likely.

[JollyGood]

Hearn is still convincing people there was some secret reason he could not openly declare where the fight would take place but this is bad PR on his part. It should have been out in the open weeks ago but it is still shrouded in secrecy.

It's already been over a week since the final contract was supposedly sent to Tyson Fury and we have yet to hear anything. Hopefully they will interview Hearn and Fury during the broadcast of the Canelo fight so we can get some answers as to why they haven't closed the deal.

You missed the update, this fight will not happen anymore as shared by.

That's why we don't talk about it anymore because we already lose the excitement of this fight, this is a big fight and the promoter would like to make huge money from this, but it seems the negotiation does goes well.

You missed the update, this fight will not happen anymore as shared .

Eddie Hearn confirmed that the fight date will be announced officially and the area is confirmed and the fight will take place in Saudi Arabia and the reason for the long delay is because of the pandemic situation and these promoters always look for opportunities to make more money and they were expecting to conduct the fight in a huge stadium in the UK with audience but they need to switch that idea according to the situation and now the expected date for the fight is August 14 as per Eddie Hearn.

At this point I am not going to believe the fight will happen until I see both Fury and Joshua signing the contract and claiming they are going to fight, promoters believe that by doing all of this they benefit the sport but it is really unnecessary, it is a reunification fight, winner takes all on the most popular division on boxing, the heavyweight division, among the best fighters we have at the moment, we do not need more hype, we are as hyped as we can be and we will watch the fight no matter what, just make it happen.

The problem with these kind of high profile fights is that it takes a long time to negotiate and sign the contract and hopefully we will see the fight irrespective of having audience in the arena. There are also plans about Tyson and Joshua finding other opponents until there global situation clams down and the reason is that the promoters want to cash in the millions that they will be getting with the live gate with a high profile fight like this.
Hopefully we will hear about the fight announcement in the coming weeks.

I am also waiting for them to sign the contract and announce the fight date official as it is taking a long time and it is testing the patience of all the fight fans as we just want to see this fight happen when they are in their prime and boxing has the habit of testing the patience of the boxing fans and so is the reason UFC gained more popularity as they always makes match up the fight fans wanted.

Eddie Hearn talked about the date of August 14 in Saudi Arabia and lets wait for the official announcement and hopefully it will take a long time.

As of the moment, Fury has a good chance of finding a good match as they can proceed the Wilder vs Fury 3, which is for me a big fight and time for Fury to end the countless excuse of Wilder if he can again KO Wilder. hopefully, there's positive news regarding this fight, for me it's more interesting than any fight now in the heavyweight since Fury vs Joshua fight was not realize.

[nelson4lov]

Too bad the Joshua vs Tyson fight won't be happening as I originally anticipated. Have there been any official announcements about the fight not happening? It sucks because its a fight that I've been looking forward to only to hear that it might not even be happening.

August is a long, long time to wait but that's if the fight would eventually happen. Promoters always wants fights to come several months later just so they can can cash-in as much as possible.

Arum said it was dead in the water because he thought it would take too long to come to an agreement with the Saudis on all of their demands. The next day Eddie Hearn, who is the one negotiating directly with the Saudis, said they would have everything agreed to by the weekend. We are getting mixed messages and the fight is not officially dead until the hosts withdraw their $150 million offer.

[JollyGood]

Hearn says one thing and Arum says something different. Fury and Joshua just do not seem like they are even trying to keep the hype up but Hearn is after a big pay day with his commission.

There was something wrong about this when the fight was announced, I am not convinced it will go ahead in 2021. Maybe Joshua should fight Oleksandr Usyk and Fury should find a different opponent.

There's no other opponent of Fury that could excite us, except Joshua. We would not know who will be the best heavyweight fighter if two will not meet, it's not good for boxing and fans would not be happy on that as they only hype things out but turn out not realizing it.

The best Heavyweight is hands down Tyson Fury as he always fought high profile opponents as an underdog away from his home and yet he was able to defeat each and every one of the high profile opponents and even when Tyson returned after a few years he was able to defeat Deontay Wilder and then the judges messed up and then in the rematch he proved his worth as the best in the world.

It is impossible to create any sort of hype between Wilder and Fury 3 because in the first two fights everyone witnessed who the best boxer was as Tyson Fury dominated Wilder even though he was returning after a long break and he just landed less than a dozen shots and one big shot which Tyson Fury was able to overcome and even after that knockdown Tyson Fury was winning the fight and the second fight was a complete domination from start to finish and if not for the corner stoppage he will be hurt badly.
