Let's wait and see, if and when it happens.

Fury is incredible for his size, has very high ring IQ, but has looked shocking in many of his fights against much lesser opposition. Wilder is and always has been a woeful boxer, once his power was sapped from him today he had nothing. AJ is a decent boxer, is a decent size to compete with Fury, and can also bang. We'll see a much much better fight than the one sided mauling we saw tonight.

Remember who told you so when he's been laid out .

AJ lol.

Fury can change styles for any fight and has it all.

In the first fight he dance and imho won the fight on points. His punches in that fight where more slaps as you could see his wrists flexing.

This morning every punch Fury threw had pep. His jabs were crushing.

Don’t think AJ has the boxing smarts of fury. Fury did amazing work up close, holding and punching, uppercuts on break, leaning and hanging on to wilders neck, spinning him around just a lot of effective dirty boxing that comes with years of experience . Wilder had no clue how to deal with that.

Styles make fights, huge fan of Fury and called his win over Klitchko many years ago and knew all along be had Wilders number, but AJ knocks Fury out. He can actually box a little as well as carrying good power. Wilder cannot box AT ALL. Fury has looked horrible against reasonable boxers of similar stature throughout his career, let's not forget. He grinds out wins, that's what he does but AJ would KO him.

Wilder is the heaviest puncher on the planet and Fury got up from being knocked out by him when he wasn't even completely fit. For Joshua to knock out Fury it would have to be a TKO. And there is nobody in Joshua's record that he has KO'd or TKO'd that was particularly threatening. Except maybe a 40 year old Klitchsko. And having seen the way Fury came out of the blocks for this Wilder fight, Joshua will want to be cautious. Especially when Joshua isn't a particularly good boxer. He's nowhere near as bad a boxer as Wilder. But he is most certainly nowhere near as good a boxer as Fury.

Did you see any jabs coming back though? That's why he was able to totally dominate, Wilder can't box for ****

I remember reading all the same bs on here about how Klitchko totally dominates and exposes Fury, very few gave him a chance. Now he's the greatest of all time lol. He's in an era of very poor heavyweights let's make that very clear. He's looked poor against and made hard work of lesser opposition. AJ would KO him, please quote me on that after they fight.

I agree, but Wilder and AJ are nothing like each other so we can't use this performance to conclude that Fury vs AJ would go the same way.

In HW anybody can knock anybody out.

I remember Fury getting floored by some overweight polish short arse. Was a crushing overhand right.

But this guy has the heart to pick him self up and went to work.

AJ doesn't have that but he is the supreme athlete with good boxing skills.

I don't think the fight will happen but after tonight it's the one everyone wants to see.

You can’t say AJ doesn’t have heart, he got up off the canvas numerous times during his career and multiple times when he lost. Booked a immediate rematch and spanked him, that’s heart right there.

Styles make fights, you're missing this crucial fact.

The fat snickers guy has the fastest hands from current heavyweights. Fury beats snickers Ruiz every day of the week, without a doubt, but AJ has always struggled against shorter opposition and looked much more comfortable against similar sized opponents.

AJ v Fury is not one sided like tonight by any means, styles.

You would probably see a different Fury in the AJ fight.

Which style would he bring? Backfoot counter? Aggressive overbearing?

Ruiz hands are indeed nasty but let's not forget. Did he take the fight seriously? He spent months living it up and partying and back garden BBQ's and came in even heavier.

AJ has suspect stamina, so using boxing skills while employing pressure should see him break. It's a 50-50 and AJ is much more well rounded than Wilder and younger so it won't be 1 way traffic in the same way.

It's the career defining fight of this decade though.

There's a voice that keeps on calling me.
This was Fury’s best fight of his career. Could he pull another one out of the bag or was it a one off. Either way he will go down as right up with the best. I hope AJ and fury meet sooner rather than later, as if Fury fights wilder again, we might not see the AJ fight till the end of next year.

If AJ wants to not be forever known as the guy who lost to Ruiz out of nowhere, he needs to fight Fury soon, and win. I think Fury would be quite a good favourite as it stands, but Joshua is capable of a big fight and he needs to take a big chance soon or risk never reaching the heights he could.

Good fight from Fury, but largely down to exposing how limited Wilder is imo.

AJ Fury will be a hell of a fight, anyone trying to call it is talking poopie :p

Fury controlled that fight comfortably after the first, he's so good.

Fight was over the moment an ear is ******. Interesting that Fury closed the gap throwing a few punches and then smothering him. People wrongly saying Wilder initiating holds, Fury did the majority and worked beautifully, didn't allow any counters and got plenty of shots to the back of the head (Wilder too mind you, not sure why only Fury was docked a point)

Wilder pretty tough, he had got through the worst of it although avoiding long term damage is always smarter.

Edit: Just saw the Fury singing :D Its such a shame he holds pretty horrid views, otherwise he's hilariously fun
