    I thought Huck for the European was the next one.

    If Frank is only teasing us with the Yoka suggestion then he's a very naughty boy. That would be a superb fight and one which would raise Joyce's profile and help to keep him relevant in the run up to AJ vs Usyk. There's a great story to tell around the olympic final, the judging and the subsequent drug test issues all of which would help Joe build support.

    Yarde rematch makes no sense to Arthur. He should move on instead being forced to have a redundant rematch.
    Frank should just accept that his golden boys Yarde & Dubois lost and start supporting Arthur and Joyce for a change.

    Maybe your right but I believe Yarde with his new trainer will stop Arthur this time.

    Arthur signed for a rematch in the contract. It’s also going to be by far the highest pay cheque /profile fight available to him at the moment. The Joyce stuff is just a lazy argument I keep hearing - what exactly is Frank supposed to be doing, what he isn’t already?

    Joyce is/was lined up for Usyk and WBO but obviously it’s delayed because of the mess. If AJ drops the belt, that fight will happen on PPV probably in September. He’s due out on July 24th apparently against a good opponent. There is no issue.

    Seen a lot of people saying he should have had a tick over fight. But with a lot the governing bodies that would forfeit your spot. I think Joyce has just been in a tricky spot.

    Joyce vs Takam/Yoka would be more than acceptable

    If AJ fights Usyk isn't Whyte v Joyce the obvious fight to make?

    Cash fought on a Warren show recently, somebody from Queensbury is on the matchroom show this weekend. Joshua v Fury was all but made. Cross promotional events are sort of back. I assume relations are better than ever between Matchroom and Queensbury due to young Frank and young Francis.

    AJ vs Fury imo you cant count

    It only got so close due to the amount of money involved
    They couldn't not look in to it

    Cashs last fight wasn't much of a risk and low cost

    So no issues

    Now honestly, you telll me how Joyce and White gets made?

    Whyte will want big money
    Does he risk his mandatory again in such a risky fight!?

    Then who broadcasts it?

    Its not that big a fight that both networks will be forced to work together

    Joyce id imagine wants good money now too


    Id love to see it, dont get me wrong

    Its just not happening

    Whyte is a free agent. I’m sure sky would be interested as would BT. Give it to the highest bidder or tell them to put a joint package together.

    Can imagine Francis and Eddie on the bag together to be fair

    Why would Whyte fight Joyce.

    High risk and low reward.
