Joshua recently announced that he's going to defend his wba belt. Joseph Parker. , Alexander Povetkin and Christian Hammer are seen as opponents who do you think his next opponent will be
If he fights Parker and wins he'll have to face Povetkin after that. I suspect a cherry pick which was is why I think Duhaupas should keep his phone near.
I fear it will be Dillian White or the winner of Haye/Bellew 2 but i hope its either Ortiz, Povetkin or Parker. The Wilder fight needs to marinate a little
Bellew won't fight Joshua, he's said that many many times before. Whyte could happen, but Whyte wants a shot at Wilder or Parker to kind of 'legitimatize' a rematch with AJ. Wilder and Parker need to get over to the UK, i don't understand why they don't realise this.
Maby chisora if he wins the European title and they can always spin it and say he beat whyte but got robbed hearn can spin anything to the aj matchroom fanboys
I don't really care as long as it's one of the top five fighters. Povetkin (#2 in the division IMO), Ortiz (likely WBA mandatory), Wilder or Parker. If Haye looks good and fit against Bellew I can see that being an attractive cash spinner for Hearn too. He may be shot but Haye is arguably the second biggest draw in the country, arguably the second biggest draw in the HW division too.
not sure who hearn will go for i think they have pencilled in wilder for the summer july most probably at wembley as you need nice weather and cannot really hold it in the uk before then that leaves a march approx date. i would like to see him fight miller
I think it will be Miller in US. Hearn can use this to further promote Joshua in US and build up a fight with Bongsquad. Miller is loud so would promote the fight well. He's also not very good so poses little threat.
It wont be Ortiz - he's on a ban and then will have to win some fights to get a ranking again. He's dropped from the rankings so won't be installed after his ban as a mandatory. Likely it will be Parker...to add another belt before they take the risk on Wilder.
No idea, think i read that the WBA are not expecting Joshua to face their mando in his next fight after Oritz dropped out. So prefect world would be Parker then Wilder or visa versa in this huge 2018 Hearn was talking about last week. If it isnt either of those then im not sure who he could fight that would be huge.
