    Mystic Gaz is predicting it for April.

    Discuss; Does Dempsey have a chance?

    Doubt it, this is one of his sparring partners for the Usyk fight so it's as safe as a safe bet comes from Team AJ's perspective.
    Bit of a tangent but has he confirmed a new coach yet? Heard he wasn't going back to Garcia

    Frank Warren said he is hearing AJ wants three fights before Dillian Whyte. Just retire if thats true.

    Undefeated 22 fight record Koogs and a genuine 50/50 fight.

    Shades of Gary Cornish Pasty at play here.

    Utter nonsense that, he’s not Fury.

    The longer the delays go from him fighting in Nov/Dec the more it could be possible.

    Don’t necessarily have a problem with him having a warm up fight given that fury has just fought Chisora and wilder v Helenius. Don’t know how they are going to price/justify the ppv though.

    I don’t see why against a fighter of this calibre however it’s so far back in April, his last fight was the end of august so he could easily fight someone like this in Jan/Feb. Unfortunately they will obviously push the Whyte fight in the summer as some kind of world class opponent when we all know he’s just an uppercut magnet and should be a warm up fight himself.

    “Fury and Wilder didn’t want it Koogs so we’ve gone after DEMPSEY MCKEAN…”

    Nailed it - Whyte and Chisora are comeback fights 90/10 in favour of any half decent contender.

    After this he should proceed to Joyce or Bakole then onto Fury should he succeed in either 50/50 contest.

    What Fury proved, if you need to much of a warm-up for Whyte you you're probably not that good.

    Joshua's legacy was cemented that night on 1 June 2019.

    It is the fight that people will always think of first when they hear the name Joshua.
