    Joshua has reached rock bottom and does not keep his word, he himself stated that he wants a quality fighter for his opponent, but he wants to avoid any slightly greater danger, McKean is probably too big for him and there is a risk of losing the fight, so he decided to fight Franklin...

    Complete bollocks

    He has just had b2b defeats and again is changing trainers

    Of course you would choose a less risky type of fight to firstly get your confidence back and secondly to be able to put in to practice any new teachings

    Some people are just clueless

    Fight a bum on free to air and build the confidence. But be doing it end of Jan / early Feb.

    Fighting a bum on PPV in April on a platform no one has is not good for the brand

    When Fury eats Usyk up like a little cupcake then AJ's career is over because once the facade has fallen these bums have nothing left

    Atleast Wilder has legit nuclear bomb power all AJ had was a manufactured career.

    Whyte 2 would be fine at this stage in their careers.

    I have a feeling AJ loses to Franklin as well.

    How little confidence does Hearn have in Joshua, to be forcing Joshua to take a tune-up for shot to pieces Dillian Shyte

    Dillian Shyte IS the tune-up

    I don’t blame Joshua tbf, he’s just the low IQ dummy who does what Eddie Hearn tells him to do

    Yall criticizing Joshua for this but Joshua has fought nothing but top opponents/mandatories for a while now.

    Franklin beat Whyte in the opinion of many people. Joshua is not fighting for a title, he's not got a title shot.

    He is waiting to be called out by Fury later this year, or for Fury/Usyk to retire so he can have another shot which he will get soon enough.

    Wilder is fighting Ruiz.

    So later this year, Joshua could be fighting Fury or Wilder. He just needs a confidence booster.

    May I remind you all that Usyk fought Witherspoon and Chisora.

    Fury fought - Pianetta, Swarz, Wallin and Chisora!!!!!!!

    Don't get me started on Wilder

    FRANKLIN IS CHISORA QUALITY. If fury, Wilder and Usyk can have their crappy fights, then why not Joshua?

    I do enjoy your trolling most of the time. I also think you do have a point here to a degree.

    1. If Fury beats Usyk, isn’t a good look for AJ at all.
    2. AJs main issue is he has become gun shy having been hurt badly, from Wlad to Ruiz. Wilder, to his credit, got battered by Fury and still let his hands go in the next fight like the fight before never happened. Wilder may be basic but he has a great mentality.

    Franklin is better than McKean
