After beating Povetkin, Joshua set up a poll on twitter for the public to decide who his next opponent would be on April 13th, 500'000 of his fans voted for one of the 3 options HE gave 53% voted for Wilder 42% voted for Fury 5% voted for Whyte Fast forward to the current day, and there is no fight on April 13, and Joshua will not be fighting any of the 3 options HE stated Instead Joshua is gonna fight in June against Jarrell 'droopy tits' Miller, a man who has never even fought against a top 20 opponent in his entire career, Millers only relevance is that he has had a fake, staged WWE argument with Joshua for the SKY cameras Once again, despite having enormous career earnings, Joshua and his side kick Eddie Hearn are showing their preference for greed over legacy defining fights They announced the April 13th date to try and force negotiations and they have been made to look foolish, now despite giving the public a complete mismatch, Eddie Hearn is talking about his desire to try and load the fight card to try and save face in an attempt to salvage his mis-matched ppv event.
Well he is now. Whats your problem? Were you desperate for Whyte 2? Wilder and Fury made it very very clear neither were going to take on Joshua in April.Whyte didnt like the offer.
AJ's offering career high pay days to every fighter, not his fault fighters are scared of him Fury will be the one who stands up to the challenge later this year for unification
Miller isn't a worse opponent than Whyte. In fact he's the US version of Whyte. Plus he was never knocked out by Joshua, so that's relatively a more intriguing match up. Whyte would be best off getting a Breazeale fight that'd secure him a WBC title shot possibly later this year.
Fury and Wilder are fighting each other again and Joshua and Whyte negotiated but couldn't come to terms. Who else is out there that Joshua hasn't already beaten (in fact, he already has beaten Whyte). Miller is ranked #9 by Ring and Boxing News, #6 by Boxing Monthly. He's no world beater but is not the worst challenger out there by any stretch of the imagination. I agree totally about Eddie and his PPV nonsense.
Femi to end up like poor old Rocky Lockridge smoking crack in doorways as Hearn drives past in his Bentley.
