    This opponent is well and truly dug from the graveyard, a new low

    If you are going to make PPV cards then make the main fight PPV worthy. Although after Bellew Cleverly II, i think PPV should be banned in the UK for the next 20 years!

    Unbelievable, but Hearn is playing on the casuals.

    This fight is shyte no matter how you look at it. Captain Man ****s will not present any problems to AJ as he doesn't have a good jaw nor any good defensive skills. Had it been a good learning fight I could have gotten on board with it, but AJ will get nothing out of this fight and probably stop him within 2-3 rounds.

    This kind of poor managing is going to spell disaster when AJ actually has to face a live body.

    Breazele has a good record, but anyone who has seen the Mansour fight can testify, that this is an AJ KO win inside 3 rounds.

    Mansour was cleaning his clock, until a freak injury/weird retirement. Unless Breazele improves by 100 times on that performance, its going to be another early Ko win for AJ.

    He looks better than Martin, being floored by Mansour is no disgrace , he can really bang. I think Breazeale's game enough and he is a decent boxer if a bit predictable, but he doesn't appear to punch his weight. Is he any worse than the guys Wilder is defending against?

    That isn't the issue most people have with this.

    The issues are that it's a £17 pay per view and that the big leather belt with some gold coloured metal on it that Joshua is carrying around was won by beating a club fighter who had no business fighting for world title in the first place (as increasingly worthless as those belts have become).

    AJ looking like he's following Hayes line in opponents ie.. easy ones. But let's be honest it makes total financial sense until he gets a big fight at the right time. Anyone managing AJ would do exactly the same thing so everyone should wind their necks in including Team Fury who need to really concentrate on getting through the next fight which is going to really define Fury as a legitimate no1 in my opinion. Klitchko is gonna be as good as he's ever been for this fight.


    Fury is however the only one of the bunch that wouldn't bother now fighting a nobody, I will give him that.

    Apparently fightpass holders couldn't log in to get AJ pre-sale tickets and they sold out instantly.

    Hmmmm.....

    I know you know but for people who might not

    Have a look on Stubhub, the tickets will be on there in the coming days and weeks at a lot more than the face value.

    I personally don't believe the vast majority of tickets even go on sale, I believe they straight to Stubhub.
