    Who's next?

    Ruiz 3? Ruiz looked like dog**** against Arreola and might be another easy Decision for quak quak quak Joshua.

    Hunter would be another option. Hunter can box but probably loses a decision to AJ so it would be another "safe" option for Eddie and Duckroom Boxing.

    Other options are: Ortiz (old, inactive), Wallin (probably too dangerous)

    Pulev was a mandatory defence.

    So what? The question remains the same. Does Eddie find another Pulev for AJ?

    Damn, then boxing is dying for sure.
    He was considerably worse than Takam vs A.J.
    Actually Pulev did almost nothing, I wondered why he still is walking so long rounds in the ring vs this A.J

    As long as AJ fights Usyk then I don't see what the issue is with fighting Pulev. He was the mandatory fighter and there isn't much out there at the moment. It isn't like all the other fighters are going after killers. Wilder fought Fury because he thought he was washed up, and now has nowhere else to go.

    Joshua will fight Usyk. I’d be very surprised to see something else unfold.

    There aren’t many “dangerous” fights out there to be fair these days, unless you start to look at your prospects that are borderline contenders. Then again, I can tell you for free that neither Fury, nor Wilder will be looking to step in the ring with a Yoka or a Hrgovic. Serious risk, little reward.

    If anyone is ducking it's Fury....

    I'll give him benifit of doubt that it was because of his team dropping the ball...

    I donno what drugs you been taking if you think AJ was ducking. The whole time Hearn was the only guy trying to make it happen.... All Furys team did was say it's not gonna happen..... Probably because they knew the whole time that Fury wasn't gonna fight AJ.

    You're clearly a Joshua and Duckroom Boxing fan. AJ ducking Wilder, Fury and Usyk. He's probably fighting Ortiz lmfao.

    You obviously have something against AJ and Matchroom. When in reality they're all as bad and scummy as one another, in fact Wilder and Fury teams/promotion are much bigger scumbags.

    You're working off an assumption AJ doesn't fight Usyk despite AJ explictly saying he wants the belts and Hearn has said Usyk is the no 1 choice. Hearn listed the alternatives to Usyk in the case negotiations break down. In all reality no one truly knows whose ducking who but in the case of Wilder it clearly points towards him... His promotion and WBC have protected him completely and utterly for years. Have you even looked at Wilders resume? 40 literal trash cans, an old unproven man and a coked up Fury (who he cherrypicked after a long lay off). At least AJ has fought some decent opposition in Ruiz, Whyte, Parker, Klitschko (yes he was old), Takam (who is underrated), Povetkin (old but he was very competitive With Hunter)

    Was already proven that Wilder ducked AJ to fight Fury, from the man's own lips.... Man that backfired.

    I like Fury and AJ... I just wanted to see the fight happen, and objectively it certainly looks like Fury was the Duck...if not, at least his team didn't want it.

    I'd be surprised if AJ ducked Usyk... But I can guarantee I'll be back here saying AJ ducked Usyk if it happens.

    Joshua will fight Usyk.

    But I wouldn't mind seeing him fight Ruiz again, or Whyte again and get rid of him for good !

    If AJ doesn't fight Usyk.. then it's vacate the WBO and fight Ortiz, Ortiz almost guaranteed.

    They have mentioned Whyte but he will once again basically "price himself out" or be lowballed, and Hearn will justify that by saying it would have to be in the Uk and there are no full crowds.

    Also, Hearn has another agenda, Hearn is already mentioning the mandatory situation with Whyte and the WBC and wants the WBC to make sure that if Wilder or Fury don't fight AJ next then Whyte gets his WBC title shot.

    So Hearn is trying to position Whyte to make sure he gets a shot a that WBC title and hopefully steal it away from that side.



    So, if AJ Ducks Usyk, the spin will be Usyk messed them around, wanted to much money, the WBO were out of order for forcing AJ to fight anybody, they want to do their own thing..

    Then they will be mentioning Whyte to make it look good and then slip the "dangerous" Ortiz late and say they couldn't secure a better opponent and AJ needs to fight, they'll say Fury Wilder tied up and neither want the fight, they'll say Whyte wanted too much money and that's a British stadium fight with fans.

    They'll also mention Ruiz Jr didn't look good against Arreola and we've just seen two fights with him and the fans want something new type of thing.
