    I'm not mad, but AJ hater looks mad to be fair. I'm not calling you one of them. I have asked you a serious question, which was facts.

    Wilder and Ortiz himself have said that. Fury fight canceled was very well documented and it was clear who wanted it all the time, and who f***** up.
    Everything i have mention apart from that was facts as well.

    And i don't know if AJ will have 4 fights till the 2023 i hope so, cause his matches win or lose are always interesting, and there is big fights ahead of him.

    Maybe his next match won't be against really top opposition, but i expect at least 2 of the 4 supposed fights to be against top opposition.


    Joyce, Hrgovic, Fury, Wilder, Whyte, Frank Sanchez and even Parker are great matches. Even Otto Wallin won't be a bad matchup currently.
    Also Bakole, Dubois and Makhmudov would be good matches as well.

    Joshua has nothing that Fury wants he is a former Champion at this point now offering nothing but a big payday. Like you said yourself the legacy fight for Fury is the Usyk fight and probably also the bigger money fight. I believe Fury retires after the Usyk fight if it gets made and just don’t think we will see Fury v Joshua, I just don’t see Fury letting Hearn cash in off him as he clearly hates Fury. Don’t get me wrong we would all love to see Fury v Joshua but it’s probably as far away now as it has ever been .

    The step aside money for Wilder was 30 million ! Who in the right mind would agree to pay that ?

    Not Whyte, please. For a start, haven’t heard of him since his abysmal “challenge” before 90,000, hasn’t he retired with all his loot?
    2 knockout defeats in his last 3 fights is hardly a recommendation, with the solo win being over covid stumbling participant, Pov’!
    For the money he’ll be getting, Joshua should be fighting real opposition every time, or forget about it,

    I agree I don’t think Tyson would give Joshua/Hearn the payday .

    He should take a soft touch or two until Fury and Usyk retire.
    Then he can pick up a title before he retires.
    Happy ending for everybody.

    Wilder vs AJ would definitely be a fight worth watching.

    This was in the so call contract. They didn't even try to negotiate. It was all very shady asf, and everyone with a sense knows this.


    They were also very local saying Hearn won't manage to get deal, yet when hes done it for huge money, they all went into dead silence. That old far goes missing, Fury goes missing(as he was very local prior to that, same situation when he duck Usyk), and the other old ugly imbecile as Fury promoter.


    Fury was plenty of happy to face Wilder, instead of AJ.


    And if someone want to call himself the best of X generation he should clear that division and fight all the fights that are available to him.

    Fury somehow managed to complete miss to fight Haye(not his fault actually so he get a pass for that), Povetkin, Takam, Parker, Pulev, Joyce, Hrgovic, Dubois, and he is still missing Usyk and AJ.


    AJ and Usyk are enough fights to cement his legacy no doubt about it. This is what cleaning a division mean, having in mind for how long he is being at HW.

    AJ also misses a lot of fights, but he is up to the task and i'm pretty damn sure he will fight most of this guys before hang them up.

    I think Whyte would be acceptable opponent after back to back losses. Relatively easy work against a known opponent, and scoring a brutal KO would be a nice confidence booster.

    But where does he go after that? Let’s say Usyk and Fury do a 2 fights series, Wilder fights the winner of Ruiz/Ortiz after Helenius, Joyce/Parker winner will be with Warren so It’s hard to see them on DAZN(though It’s possible with a good payday). Would Hearn be willing to make Joshua/Hrgovic without a title on the line?

    And I’m sorry, but when the hell did Hearn make this “offer” to Wilder “recently”? It hasn’t even been a full week since AJ lost to Usyk, Wilder has been signed to fight Helenius for a couple of weeks now. Did Hearn know that Joshua would lose and was already trying to set up a come back fight?

    Whyte vs Joshua - Joshua KO's Whyte brutally

    Joshua vs Wilder - Close 50/50 fight but I'm going with AJ as Wilder has nothing on the inside.

    Joshua vs Fury - Fury wears AJ down and KOs.

    Like I mentioned before Joshua is rebuilding his career after 3 losses in his last 5 fights and at this point in time a fight with Joshua only brings money and adds nothing to Fury’s legacy as well as the fact there is nobody that Joshua has beat that Fury would not have.Joshua is not in any mandatory position for any belts so how long would it be for Joshua to get himself in that position once more .Fury and Usyk will retire after they fight then maybe Joshua can rebuild enough to fight for one of the belts. The jury will be out on Joshua after his recent losses and very public meltdown to see if it has affected his marketability in any way. With Joshua tied into a contract with dazn no doubt we will see him continue his career and how it unfolds .

    He landed more shots than he did in the first fight and had Usyk in bad trouble in the 9th.
