    Where else?

    Hearn was never going to do it in a sky studio or the York Hall.

    I didn't realise he was quite so old. Bit of a joke really, the bloke should have retired 5 years ago.

    They should have this in Hearn’s kitchen. Bardsley vs Rooney style.

    Seriously though the hate for Joshua is daft. I’ve never liked him but people are so fickle and the same people abusing him for having this mandatory now don’t know boxing and were the same ones calling him super human, p4p number 1 and allowing him to pump their missus if they got the chance.

    It’s not a great fight but sone of the ones moaning are the ones happy to pay £20 to see him ‘fight’ far worse.

    True but he had a choice Usyk or Pulev.

    I think he took the easier option that's all. Don't really care about anything else. As a fan I want to see the best fights. Zero interest in watching a washed 40 year old, who wasn't ever at his level, against AJ.

    He's defending his belts against a credible opponent ffs I'm sure Tyson will get round to doing the same in time.

    It's got nothing to do with Fury. Like I said I think he took the easier option. It's not about sides or teams mate.

    Usyk is his mandatory also. They chose to go with Pulev.
    Again as a fan, not a cheerleader, I would have a preferred the Usyk fight than a washed up 40 year old plodder but that's just me I guess.

    I agree nuro but usyk is sitting in a mandatory position,the pulev mando has been called so Joshua has to answer to his called mando or hand over his belts.the champ won't oblige and quite right.

    There was a thing ages ago about who they would fight next, they chose Pulev. That's all I can remember really.
