    Promoter of world champion WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight Anthony Joshua (21-0, 20 KO) Eddie Hearn mentioned Adam Kownacki (17-0, 14 KO) as a possible rival of AJ in American debut, if the fiasco ends with negotiations on the subject of a unification clash with WBC champion Deontay Wilder (41-0, 40 KO).

    - I like Kownacki. He's a nice guy, he's Polish, but he's boxing here [in the US], he's great. We must look at the new fresh American heavy - said Hearn.

    Kownacki, whose name was also in the context of a confrontation with Wilder, will probably return to the ring in the summer. "Babyface" in his last two performances recorded valuable victories before time on Artur Szpilek and Iago Kiladze.

    P.S. If this fight comes to fruition than this fight will take place in UK.

    ''I think the main thing is just make him feel something he's never felt before,'' Miller said, ''a big guy that comes forward and hits him everywhere to make him just realize that eventually he's going to break down, that he's in a war for his life.'

    "There’s been a lot of talk about my next fight but I’m not worried about that, I’m just looking to fighting Duhaupas, beating him and taking it from there. Hard work, dedication and cheeseburgers.”

    "I've fought for every single belt the WBC said I was eligible for. I'm one of the only guys in the WBC who has followed the proper procedure. I fought many eliminators, and many WBC ranking fights. I've been loyal to the WBC for about two years," Whyte told Sky Sports.

    "I've had the sanctioning fights, I've done everything they have asked me to do. My information was - I was meant to be next in line. If anything, the WBC should be ordering me and Breazeale to fight in a final eliminator to face Wilder.

    "I've had loads of WBC fights and they've always been against top contenders. [Dereck] Chisora, Helenius, Browne. These haven't been against mugs, they have been against top contenders, who are highly ranked in the WBC as well. We're going to try and see what we can do, and see whether or not we can reach some sort of agreement with the WBC. I'm very, very disappointed and annoyed. I feel betrayed by the WBC to be honest."

    Big Baby Miller is a disgrace.
    No need to look like that.

    Miller is in good shape, judging by his physique.

    Evgeny Romanov would be huge problem for Haye because of his huge power, fast hands and superb movement. And he would be a problem for not only Haye but also for the rest of Top 10 boxers because of the reasons mentioned above.

    Skip to 2:50:00 mark, Romanov in red shorts:

    You really dislike Adamek, don't you?

    Adamek has no business going in the ring with Rivas nor Ortiz at this stage of his career.

    Would like to see Rivas vs Kuzmin, Kownacki vs Ruiz Jr, Jennings vs Takam. All good fights ...
