    Where do you see that? Read my post earlier about how a lot of the "it's been canceled altogether" rhetoric is probably just confusion stemming from a Dan Rafael tweet.

    Completely forgot that I have a burner account on Twitter and so can actually view Fat Dan's. :lol:

    He says the "Joshua vs. TBA" card is no longer PPV in the UK. That's a smart move by Hearn.

    Right now it appears the wind might be actually blowing in the direction of Helenius being be the one.

    Helenius is just white Washington at this point. It's just as disappointing.

    Big and chinny as **** with a 5% punchers chance.

    Sugar Robert Helenius is young, prime and hungry and he just produced one of the best snot-out-of KOs in recent memory. The time has come. Sign the contract, Eddie.

    Helenius. Lmao. Hope he’s getting a nice check to get sparked in 2 minutes.

    *Big and chinny and old (Helenius 39 and Washington 41)

    There may not be much separating their KO percentages (Helenius' is deceptively low) but Robbe does hit quite a bit harder than Gerald. I'd say his puncher's chance is at least double - but still only 10%.

    Gosh. After getting starched and being completely out of it last October, who'd have guessed that Sugar Rob would be much more active than Wilder in 2023.

    Joshua/Helenius would not be terrible under the circumstances, assuming it's a free fight to watch. I can't sign off on Washington or especially Chisora, who needs to be retired for his own good.

    Yes true. I was mulling it over and think i'm about 5% more intrigued about a Helenius match up with the 10% KO chance.

    10% is about right. He will be +1000 with the bookies. AJ will be -2500.

    FFS.

    What fight are you talking about, GotchaHat? Joshua vs. Whyte is off, yes.

    Joshua vs. TBA is still very much on, and the identity of TBA is still yet to be revealed. Sit the **** tight.

    Wherever you read about total event cancelation, almost guaranteed it was a misunderstanding based on a confusingly worded tweet from Rafael.

    For the umpteenth time... NOT ONE SINGLE CREDIBLE SOURCE HAS EVEN INDICATED THIS CARD MIGHT BE CALLED OFF.

    The only place you'll hear that is from a bunch of gabbling hens regurgitating seeds of misconstrual all over the Boxing Twitter echo chamber.

    Kownacki is available. Damaged, but available. He'd also be jet lagged by the time he shows up for the fight, even better for AJ.
