    Not a massive surprise, but how do you see this going folks? Personally I can only see it going one way - AJ to stop him by the 4th round.

    Have they said anything about timing? I really want them to put it on earlier to keep it reasonable for UK fans.

    Fair comment, but I’m not sure Miller will be able to deal with AJ’s speed and power, I think AJ will be looking to make a massive statement and can see an early-ish stoppage. That said, Miller is a little bit of an unknown quantity, and I guess that alone makes this bout so unpredictable.

    It would've been nice to see Miller vs Pulev or a live opponent first.

    My guess is Miller loses & retires for a few years.

    Its easy to say Joshua will ko him in 3-6 rounds but i dont really know Miller like that. He is undefeated amd he has got a couple of semi decent names on his record. From what ive seen he doesnt look great but who knows, this will be the fight of his life...Tyson/Buster 2019 style....still saying all that im going for Joshua to knock this mouthy yank out in 3 lol

    i just see miller being way to slow. joshua is going to light him up with powerful accurate shots from a safe distance. miller talks some good **** and hes a damn good fighter but i dont think he can take out AJ.

    Agreed, I have watched only a handful of Millers fights so my prediction is nothing solid. Just based on what I’ve seen, I think AJ will have too much in the tank for him though. And the key thing for me is that I do believe AJ will be looking to make a real statement in the US for his first fight there in dramatic fashion - he will be looking to make headlines there for all the right reasons, he will want to put in a performance that makes people overseas stand up and take notice. Just pleased the first round of ‘who fights who’ is now sorted and confirmed - I would imagine news on Wilder, Fury, Usyk, Whyte etc will follow quickly now (thank f***!).

    I told you it would not be Whyte!
    Maybe the trolls will get it right next time.:lol:

    Don't get me wrong, Whyte is a solid fight for Joshua. But after every fight it's the same thing: "Eddie has been grooming Whyte. The rematch is happening!!! Joshua would rather fight Whyte than *insert fighter"

    There were rumors of Joshua making 30mil or so for Miller, so I am not surprised at all that it's happening.
