Realistict - AJ or Wilder will be next mandatory from WBC perspective IBF hates Hrgovic and he will never get title shot, never, but in sceneario where Wilder AJ fight doesnt happen, and it is very likley it doesnt happen there might be a chance that: AJ fight Zhang Wilder fight Hrgovic Both would be official mandatories in 3 organizations, and wining those fight would have their name cleared of all crap they did Hearn said for Joshua there is possibility of Zhang in Decmeber, he wants to keep his fighter active and needs top name, and Zhang is perfect, Joshua can really beat him, and already has win over him, and everyone wants to see that fight, it is money fight Wilder will be left out, Ruiz is out, Joshua is out, Zhang is out, the only top contender left is Hrgovic, and with that he would be the first one to challenge for undisputed, USA comback
Problem is he is inactive for so long, if Joshua secures a high level oppoent, WIlder would become irelevant, there is not a single name after AJ beats Zhang that could keep him relevant, except Ruiz but that is crossed. What will he do, if Usyk and Fury retire, and AJ conquers 4 belts, he will retire aswell. I doubt his strategy is to wait.
