Joshua vs Wilder

It's certainly the fight the boxing world wants from a crossover point of view. It would be a mega fight. I'm not sure either fighter should be looking beyond their next opponents though as neither fight is a 'gimme'.
I would day if it is the case then fair play to Joshua, he has previously said he wants to fight anyone to get his hands on the belt and he seems to be proving it's not just words. If the fight goes ahead his last 4 fights would read:
Klitschko
Takam (should have been Pulev)
Parker
Wilder
With Pulevs injury and Fury being out the ring seemingly indefinitely you could only really sub in Povetkin to make that a tougher run of fights.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

No chance it happens in the summer Joshua only fights twice a year once in March/April then a fight later on in the year

I cant see Joshua fighting Wilder until he has fought Fury.
The Fury fight is an absolutely massive mega money fight and I reckon Joshua's team see it as a reasonably easy fight (Fury wont be the same as he was previously unfortunately , I dont think you can eat ,drink and take drugs like he has and not expect it to harm you physically). Fury has proved everyone wrong before but something tells me he wont be able to live up to an absolute machine like Joshua for 12 rounds after his self inflicted damage. It might look a long road back for Fury at the moment but money talks and I wouldn't be surprised to see that fight in the next 12 months or so.
Joshua v Wilder is a tougher fight as Wilder has immense power and it will likely be a case of who lands first , to me thats a 50-50 and I think Hearn knows that.
Joshua v Fury at Wembley for the Heavyweight Championship while both men are unbeaten will break all box office records and earn both men an absolute fortune. Joshua v Fury at Wembley for no world title and Joshua coming off a loss against Wilder is not nearly as big a fight. Add into the mix that Wilder aint getting any younger Joshua and team will be quite happy for him to age another year or 2 before they fight.

Obviously his fights are getting tougher now but spring, late summer and winter still seems achievable for him.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

I think the version of Fury that beat Wlad would have the beating of Joshua but I don't think we will ever see that Fury again. Very interesting fight though.
