    Campbell vs Mendy II will likely be on the card.

    Povetkin is just the worst kind of style for AJ , can really see a bad knockout coming in this one then the super fights all just become a dream ..

    This could potentially be one of those super fights that pop up out of nowhere. Povetkin is going to force AJ to engage. I just hope to god that the ref doesnt allow clinching ad nauseum.

    Should be a great fight. I am excited for it. These are the two best accomplished HW's still fighting today. Both would enjoy glowing to the legacy with a win here.

    This is the end of the line for Joshua. The odds for this fights are ridiculous. Povetkin by stoppage..

    Joshua wins inside 4 rounds at the absolute most.

    I think too it could be a much better fight than anyone expects. Povetkin won't move and refuse to engage like Takam and Parker did, in fact Povetkin will be the one hunting Joshua down and that's going to lead to fireworks. This definitely has the potential to be a very entertaining fight as long as the ref allows them to engage on the inside.
