I really couldn’t care less about AJ vs Whyte 2. It’ll be the same outcome. If whyte had walked through Browne, Parker and Chisora then people would probably think differently.
I think we're looking at an identical fight to the first. Some good rounds before AJ sparks him out. It'll appeal to the casuals and pull in the big numbers so I can see exactly why Hearn wanted it. Hearn has had a hard on for this rematch since the first one done 400k buys for a British title. We all called this a long time ago. Anyone with a bit of cop on knew this rematch was coming. I do believe the Fury/Wilder post fight hysteria changed the mindset of Hearn somewhat, and that he wanted one of them if they took 40%. However, it was too little too late. He should've never farted about with Wilder in the first place. God knows when those fights will happen now.
yeah, every single fight i've been to has had that toilet situation. Only place i haven't experienced it is York Hall, and Copper Box, as they both allow you out for a cigarette. Also, having to spend 100s of pounds for a decent view. AJ fights are the worst for fans (in terms of just morons who have no idea, not punch-ups). All in all, i'd say don't bother going to stadium fights.
So it’s now not gonna happen and it’s looking like AJ-Miller in the US. I’m just not excited about this fight at all, AJ will bang him out quick. Obviously it’s about introducing him to the US market, it’ll be interesting to see how many fans he will take over.
The result will be the same whether it’s Whyte or Miller. It goes for pretty much all the heavyweights bar the top 3 where you can make a case for each one beating each other.
Strange that, given that it HAD to be April 13th at Wembley... All a bit of a mess, really. Assuming Fury-WIlder II happens, Hearn has managed to somehow make AJ's fight look significantly less important despite being for 3 belts IMO. Excited to see the rematch if it happens. My assumption is that Fury will be that little bit sharper than last time out. He's looking extremely well in that photoshoot
Seems it's changed again and it's now most likely going to be Miller. Miller's manager says that the two teams are now less than a million away. 11 weeks apparently not enough time for AJ/Whyte
You’ve gotta give Whyte more of a chance than Miller imo. He’s demonstrated that he has knockout power in that left hand. Miller doesn’t carry that threat. If not Whyte then i’d have liked to have seen a bit of a boxing match with Pulev with a stacked card. Agreed mate, I think all this talk that’s essentially devalued Wilder, Whyte & Fury has resulted in him being left him out in the cold. Crazy to think considering he’s the golden ticket in the U.K. With his main rivals essentially stonewalling him, it’s forced him to go down the Miller route. He’s a huge fish in a small pond over here, but will he be the same attraction over there, will he take an army over with him like Hatton did?
Miller v AJ unlikely to sell out the Barclays as Miller is hardly a draw so would not be surprised to see this paired with BJS v Andrade and Katie Taylor to get the tickets sold. With the winner of Fury v Wilder 2 likely to be next Miller is giving vital US exposure should Wilder win and will only be a week after the Fury fight. It's also an easier fight.
If Fury wins then we’ll see a rematch and as such there will be no chance of seeing AJ in with either of them 2 until at least spring 2020.
