    And why he shouldn't he, as that much was almost signed back in the day, but Fury team actually manage to ***** it up ???
    And he is not saying he will face Fury next, but after a few fights, which is 100% reasoning.


    AJ is still big dog in the division, and if Fury wants legacy, and also money, outside of Usyk, AJ is the biggest fight out there.

    they probable won't happen & Eddie is saying stuff to talk up an AJ comeback & keep his own career alive at high level.

    meanwhile AJ is clearly a man who could do with a little rest from the whole boxing & fame circuit completely. some space to think & regroup. he showed monumental insecurity a few days ago & frustration around what more can he achieve & showed the strain. there's more to life . he has all that money in the bank & shouldn't be taken for granted he wants four fights in next year. it's desperate on Hearn's part.

    yeah sure I'm all for it. Activity is great. but the timing of this statement & the individuals concerned leave a bad taste in this case

    AJ v Whyte 2 is most realistic & it's not great fight.

    "easy fight in december to get his confidence back" is the same thing as "Whyte"

    Wilder will be 37 this year & Fury really did beat the **** out of him twice.
    it's yet to be seen whether Wilder has anything left at all.

    fighters like Parker & Ruiz probable have more to offer. based on age & absorbing far less physical & mental beating.

    & new boxers will be coming through

    No, he moved much better with Usyk when he changed angles, didn't buy his feints as easily, used his jab better and went to the body much better. Better head movement also.

    But Usyk is a true champion that so far always have had an extra gear to put in when needed and he did just that during the last three rounds.

    He moved much better with Usyk when he changed angles, didn't buy his feints as easily, used his jab better and went to the body much better. Better head movement also. Those improvements didn't all use his size. Only his better use of the jab did, and that was the thing I still think he should have done more.

    No, of course he couldn't take the same shots from bigger punchers, but just maybe he would get hit less by slower, less accurate fighters with lower output, no? There is no other current HW that's even close to being close to Usyk in those areas.

    Hearn is just using Fury and Wilder's names to try to keep his damaged product relevant.

    Wilder-Joshua will never ever happen.

    Fury-Joshua may happen down the line but it won't be until late 2023 / early 2024 at the very earliest.

    If Joshua fights 4 times between now and the end of 2023, none of those 4 opponents will be good ones. The best match-up we can realistically hope for is a rematch with a shot to pieces glass-chinned Dillian Whyte.

    A Wallin type opponent in December, followed by a vacant IBF Title shot against Hrgovic, and then maybe Whyte or Wilder in the summer of 2023.

    I'm sorry but why does Whyte deserve a shot?

    We have many contenders fighting it out for a shot at big money. **** Whyte.

    That's because they've converted him.

    What a load of crap. Joshua has prove three times in the past few years that he is not a championship level boxer. It's all a desperate attempt by Eddie H to create a false buzz around his former meal ticket.

    Keep AJ in SA fighting the Arreolas and Takams and Kownacki of the world. Nobody cares anymore.
    Or do Brits still want to watch this mental midget box? See him gas out after 7 or 8 rounds? Then go on Academy Award level rants in the ring when he loses?

    Why you not explain exactly why Wilder - AJ not going to happen ? Hearn send them offer to fight, no answer, it's clear as day Wilder is ducking. AJ can't do s***** about that.


    AJ fight everyone outside of Joyce(i'm sure he will fight him at some point), Hrgovic(same as Joyce), Fury, Ortiz and Wilder.

    It's well documented that Ortiz and Wilder ducked AJ and rejected an offer to fight him, so that ain't AJ fault. Both of this fight was also a record money for the both Wilder and Ortiz, it's even more money than they have ever earned. Both wanted easier fights in their mind.

    Fury fight was made by Hearn, but then Wilder supposedly won the arbitrage by a very convenient time for Fury actually, and he looked like ****. He actually didn't want that fight at all, cause they didn't do anything to make that fight, not even try to paid Wilder step aside money.

    And while very active before that, both of Fury and Arum goes into rabbit hole after that was announce.


    Let's also not forget that Fury ducked Usyk, because that fight was on the table, and Fury was talking big before that, and go into full silence when Usyk promoter goes on social media and said that they offered the fight to Fury, but he rejected it back then.


    Some posters on here are full of ***** when it comes to AJ. They somehow use him to the highest standard, but yet they constantly make excuses for Wilder and Fury.


    AJ vs Wilder is currently the biggest fight in the division, beside Fury - Usyk and AJ - Fury(which won't happen next).


    AJ vs Whyte is still huge fight in UK, both are coming off loses(AJ actually 2 in a row), and both doesn't like each other, so that will ultimately be a huge grudge fight.


    AJ absolutely doesn't need to use anyone name, as he is still the cash cow in the division, and everyone will make his career payday against him.

    He is still the money man in the division.

    Tell me against who exactly anyone will earn more money from Hrgovic, Whyte, Joyce, Fury and Wilder ???


    Fury vs Whyte did so great, they didn't even announce the PPV numbers, aka one big pile of *****. They are not even in the PPV books, so their numbers were pure *****. But i don't expect anything else with them doing that type of promotion for the fight, and the absolutely garbage fight that was on the event.

    I have no idea what you're so mad about.

    All I stated was facts: if you believe Joshua will fight 4 opponents between now and the end of 2023, and any of those opponents will be better than Dillian Whyte, then you're optimistic to the point of delusion.

    Over several years AJ has proven to be a massive PPV and box office hit in 13 consecutive world title fights winning 10 of them and in major stadium fights. Boy he must be some mental midget I somehow think not. If he has converted to Islam good for him and if he has not good for him as it’s nobody’s business but his own. Incidentally the greatest Ali himself converted to Islam. The names Hearn wants to match AJ against are exciting and whet the appetite. They will all want to fight him because he guarantees the biggest paydays. What a story if AJ wins the heavyweight championship of the world for a 3rd time.
