I love boxing, and was a useful exponent of the noble art, when I was younger.I tend to agree, HC. That said, I think Fury v Joshua could be interesting. Boxing's a funny sport at the best of times & more so in the hivvywite division where one blow can easily snatch victory from defeat's glass jaws! From a neutral stance, it would be great to finally see the titles unified anarl.
The trouble is, people of a certain age, were spoiled by watching great fights and fighters in the golden age of heavyweight boxing in the 1970's.
Ali, Foreman, Frazier, Spinks brothers, Norton, Shavers, all were cracking heavyweights and produced some truly great fights.
Back then, there was only the WBA & WBC organisations, but nowadays there's also the IBF & WBO too, which imo, has paved the way for boxers of a lesser talent, to compete for the titles and has diluted the talent in the fight game.
I'd love to see Fury vs AJ, though I fear for AJ if Fury is on his game, as I just don't think Joshua could cope with a fully focussed and fully fit, Fury.
