I think by positioning AJ as a PPV fighter, they have placed him in a ridiculous situation so early in his career. Greed has taken over judgement IMO. They Frenchman who went the distance with Teper and Wilder stopped in 11 after getting his face busted up would be the ideal test, but he's not PPV. If it has to be PPV then it really has to be Haye, Chisora or Hughie Fury next ... all dangerous fights that could end the hype train dramatically IMO.
He will be on ppv with a similar undercard, maybe on a brook show, no way anyone will buy aj v chisora with no decent undercard and if people do shame on them.
Helanius Arreola Tony Thompson Chisora Chisora probably he's tough but doesn't bang that hard and is a pretty one dimensional fighter. Even if it's close Joshua will get the nod and Chisora doesn't have enough to win wide IMO
Ya but think of all the out of work plumbers who would get a job putting price back together afterwards
1)Joshua Vs Scott 2) Joshua Vs Wider 3) Joshua Vs Fury I think he should be careful before signing a match. I would like one by one matches as mentioned above.
Khan fought nobodies and was a PPV fighter. Think Match room know a bit more than you about how to position Joshua.
Kauffman or Arreola would be decent tests. Arreola looks pretty beatable now would be a good name Cunningham has been mentioned a few times. Would be able to get through some rounds and AJ would have to be a little more fluid to catch him. Not on a great run as a heavy but should provide a slightly different test to Whyte and might good prep for a Haye fight - in that comes off down the line. Chisora is pointless he was tuff at one point but after being blasted by Haye he was dominated by Fury and only looks decent against small under sized heavys. AJ would just be able to stand in range and tune him up. What about Eddie Chambers - his career seems to have really gone backwards. Maybe a bit small and past it a bit but has been in with good competition and beaten them a few years ago
He shouldnt be PPV yet its crazy!!! Chisora is not a PPV fight by any stretch. Only PPV fights would be Haye at this stage as any other fights out there that could be PPV would be way too soon. Stick him in with Chisora, then Helenius then Thompson and Scott and a couple of other easy keep busy fights in there somewhere too. Theres also Chambers and Cunnigham too who coulod potentially use slightly better boxing to give AJ a few issues. 6 fights in 2016 reasy to get on the final stratch to a world title fight middle to end of 2017
