Hang on - someone said Haye is announcing a big fight on Monday? Where did they get that info from? Team Joshua apparently are announcing details on their next fight on Monday which would be an interesting coincidence. Haye vs Joshua would be nuts. I'd definitely be down for seeing that fight!
I said it and it came from Haye himself when pressed on an IFL interview after the Brook fight...he actually said a 'big big' fight which would be announced in 'around 2 weeks'. Still a chance it is v Browne though.
Browne would be less surprising, though still a fun fight - but Joshua Haye would be very very cool! Looking forward to Monday, now
Povetkin will fight Stiverne and Wilder will fight his 5th voluntary defense, since the WBC is protecting him....................AJ has never fought anyone good, neither has Wilder..............
He'd of course have a punchers chance and even this faded version of Haye is better than anyone AJ has so far fought but he'd still be a big underdog in my opinion. The height difference will be an issue, as Haye prefers guys to come to him and he doesn't have the movement he had before, but if AJ makes the same mistake he did with Whyte then one shot from Haye and he could shock everyone.
Think Hearn was overconfident with this one, they should have agreed Parker straight away (What a fight that will be as well) Pulev would be good fight but AJ would win in mid-rounds, looks like Pulev is ducking I have a feeling as it is in Manchester he will stick in David Price, which would be just crazy, (Also i know that Price is not from Manchester) If it was London he would probably put Chisora in... Either way can't see this being an exciting fight for Joshua, much like his last 2. Rematch with Dillan Whyte??? I wouldn't say no to that...
as stated above..Parkers got a fight in October. His camp said they want it in march 17. It WONT be Parker. 100%
If it was Browne I can't see it lasting any longer than Hayes previous 2 fights. Brownes primitive 'style' is an absolute dream for Haye. Then his next two fights could be Oquendo and Hughie Fury if he wins his next. If it is against Joshua I just hope Haye has learned from his long time out and comes to fight. If he does I would actually fancy him to win inside 5.
