    He could fight Chisora. Then you are just looking at Washington who would probably step aside for a really cool BMX.

    Good shout. Only issue would be that Joshua has already beaten Takam. Bakole is signed with Boxxer which makes things difficult. There are a lot of heavyweights available but unfortunately we know the opponent won't be too risky on a week's notice. Another thing to note is that a lot of those fighters will need to be drug tested, and since they've been out of camp, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of them wouldn't pass any drug tests they'd be made to take. Takam looked a little suspect against Bakole and Makhmudov to be honest.
    They could keep it on PPV if it were Chisora. Joshua and Chisora are good friends though, closer than Chisora and Fury. I know Chisora would take it for the money, but I doubt Joshua would be happy fighting him.

    What we can take from this is that whenever a fighter fails a drug test, the fight should be called off immediately and an investigation must commence. There really should be stricter rules and a protocol to follow when this occurs.

    Hmmm, wonder if Whyte is reviewing who he's had a cup of tea off in the last few weeks?

    It's so stupid it beggars belief. This must've been Whyte's last chance to earn a decent payday, so why juice? Just go in clean, chance your arm and then hang 'em up. Doesn't seem worth the risk?

    No, AJ-Hrgovic and Chisora-Demsey. Washington steps aside for a Jet Block BMX.

    Hopefully Bakole gets the chance of stepping in.

    Chisora would be beyond terrible. I really worry for him later in life as it stands let alone if he continues getting into fights where he'll take lots of punishment.

    Then again I've just remembered he's a scumbag so I'm not that bothered about his health actually

    Thank you, DramaShow.

    I know you can't reveal too much but it must have been tense on that 3 way call when you and Eddie had to break the news to AJ.

    A genuine champion would welcome this fight but all Joshua wants now is PPV Loot fighting very low risk opponents.

    Bakole would lay it on him and I think he would crumble by the end of round 3.

    The 2 main potential opponents would be Hrgovic or McKean moving up to main event.

    It’s hard to know who’s training and who’s not at this short notice and then you’d have to negotiate money etc… needs to be sorted by Monday at the latest I’d suggest.

    What’s the odds of Fury doing an instagram post telling the ‘big stuff dosser’ he’ll step in bla bla.
