    Campbell vs Brizuela

    Coyle vs Katsidas

    Joshua vs Airich

    Joshua vs Bahktov

    Ryder vs Khomitsky

    Selby vs Bunkner

    Some really good fights for their respective career stages, considering the money down the line. Looking forward to these, I would expect him to get someone good in for Callum Smith as well. Good job Hearn!

    Massive fight for Ryder. Impressed by that. He was going nowhere for a while I thought after the Saunders defeat although I know injuries played their part.

    Is Campbell's a 12 rounder?

    Has Eddie Hearn come back from Cali with a new outlook on matchmaking? Brilliant since Kells win

    Not 100% but sure I saw 10-12 rounds so it may depend on what other fights are lined up, they're keeping him busy at moment so possibly 10. I expect a knock out anyway, Brizuela is limited.

    Bakhtov is a good fit for Joshua as this stage as he has gone the distance with the likes of Glazkov and Ustinov. He should give Joshua rounds. I like the Joshua/Sprott fight too in December, which will likely be an eliminator for the British title.

    Agree - big fight for Ryder this!

    This fight will tell us a lot about Ryder and where he's heading. Been very impressed with him so far, but Khomitsky can fight. His record of 29-11 is deceiving.

    12 rounder because it's for the WBA Inter-Continental title.

    Joshua will have to watch he does not become David Price 2 with all those easy fights. Sprott a joke as well.

    Audley and another 3 butterbean types in the future no doubt as well.

    Well considering he has just bypassed Prices last opponent before been exposed in his 7th fight, it's not likely is it clever clogs.

    His next two opponents are fine followed by Sprott, that's just over a year as a pro. I think he'd be ready for someone like Johnson then for his first 12 rounder, not that it would go the distance.

    Sprott is on the slide for sure but he's a name and durable. Looking at the rankings Joshua could easily break into the top 15 mid next year.

    they are some good fights. the Campbell fight is a shock though. that's a big step up. Luke needs to be on his A game for that one.

    i'm looking forward to it.
