Not from Hearn we haven't, it's always been media speculation on all previous occasions.

Ridiculous that the belts haven’t been defended in so long.

AJ fought Pulev in December.
Fury hasn’t fought since Feb 2020.

Should be stripped of the titles.

TBF mind we have been in a global pandemic.

Boxers don't tend to fight more than twice a year if that in nornal times so Fury not fighting during the Pandemic is hardly a crime deserving of having the belts stripped to be fair.

Lost all respect for Joshua after his anti white,pro BLM speech. Hope Fury does him.

Canelo has fought three times in that time.

They have been waiting for the money to be right nothing else.

Neither Joshua or Fury are angels so before wanting Fury to batter Joshua just because of what Josua said, you may want to remind yourself that Fury also said:

1. He would hang his sister if he deemed her to be promiscuous, and has said he believes that “a woman’s best place is in the kitchen and on her back”.

2. In the build up to his 2015 fight with Wladimir Klitschko, Fury likened homosexuality to paedophilia and explained that he believes the legalisation of homosexuality and abortion are two of the “three things that need to be accomplished before the devil comes home.

Just for balance !!!!!

AJ is a racist, I hope Fury levels him ;)

Hypocrisy is commonplace.

After his BLM nonsense and band wagon jumping I cannot accept his rubbish wokified shite.

No angels either of them...but Fury appears to have matured and realised error of ways.

Joshua not. Big advocate of fairness fighting in Saudi. Idiot.

Like most of them AJs principals went out the window when money was involved.

Your wrong on this mate, if they could have fought I believe they would have.

Canelo didn't fight for 13 months and yes he's fought 3 times in the last 5 month's but he's in a bigger division with more competition, he hadn't fought for 13 months prior to this.

Fury fought Wilder just before the pandemic kicked in and Joshua was supposed to fight Pulev in June at Spurs ground which got cancelled and re-arranged for December because of Covid, I can only assume there was no honest way out of that fight for AJ.

If it wasn't for the Pandemic they would have fought before Christmas last year, Fury could be criticized for not fighting somebody else in-between but the truth is there's not really a fight out there for him other than this one.

The boxers wouldn't be much worse off financialy if there were fans there or not.
