    Hard to pick the worst opponent out of those three. Would be absolutely hilarious if they ask PPV for it.

    What will happen to Hrgovic if McKean is Joshua's new opponent? Will Hrgovic have to wait a few more months and wait for a new event?

    Gosh those 3.

    Why choose Demsey McKean when they could fight Hgorvic and potentially gain the IBF mandatory position? Madness.

    So the fight Chisora vs. Washington is staying for now, DAZN is not interested in Chisora, so everything indicates that McKean will be the opponent.

    It's not McKean either according to Gareth Davies.

    Chisora probably firming by the look of it.

    It's going to be a shocker, I think we can all agree on that.

    A shocker that has absolutely no right to be PPV too.

    We all know it will be Chisora since everyone seems to love to fight that guy. Look at his resume. He has fought everyone since he is the go to opponent for every heavyweight at or near the top that wants a gatekeeper name added.

    It is absolutely mad that the only world-class fighter who is available, Hrgovic, is the last to be considered. Mental like. So strange that that is acceptable. I mean it would make the PPV absolutely acceptable, create real buzz and excitement, make for a fun evening for the actual end consumer, who, by the way, used to be the most important person in all of this but is now routinely ass****ed, and made AJ legitimate again in pursuit of world #1 honours.

    Instead, he seems the least likely to get the gig and his opponent is instead being seriously considered.

    Worst of all, there will be loads of fans on here who will argue, vociferously, that it is not right to expect Joshua to fight the only guy around who would give him genuine competition.

    Wow. Perfect words. Consumer satisfaction finished now, all taken for granted and consumer is happy to pay for fight with no competition.
