Just **** all the belts off and let the Saudis adopt the WBSS. All the fighters would drop the belts tomorrow for that Saudi cash jusr look at Opertia or whatever his name is.
I’d like to see Dubois v Ruiz. A few more… Joshua v Hrgovic Bivol vs the winner of Beterbiev/Smith Eubank v Janibek All of the above have either already fought on a Saudi show or been out there to watch barring Janibek.
I'd be surprised. Always been a terrible mismatch but unfortunately (as muchbas I would to Wilder get one sided beat down from AJ) as Hearn said it's off the cards and Hrgovic is likely, which is certainly the more competitive bright of the two. Parker whooping Wilder in a 12 round shut out whilst AJ made easy work of Wallin who busted open Fury and gave him a lot problems, prior to Fury having a controversial win against a debutant.
Even though I think Joshua vs Hrgovic is more likely now, I'd still be happy to see Joshua vs Wilder getting made. I had Wilder a strong favourite in that match up before Saturday night but now there's a chance he's washed up. Quite possibly. I don't rule out inactivity playing a part in Wilder's performance either though and I don't rule out the possibility of him still being able to land a bomb from his right hand onto AJ and sending his chin into orbit. It's still an intriguing fight in my eyes. I'm also happy to see Ngannou included in the mix for all these fights. Fury might not have prepared properly or whatever but Ngannou still had a close fight against the number 1 heavyweight and has earned his credibility IMO.
I'd be surprised if "new AJ" wasn't asked into an Ngannou fight by Saudi money, until the IBF situation sorts itself out. Would be good fun on Fury's undercard.
Now Wilder is a virtual corpse, it will be even more on the table as Joshua has a CV full of 90/10 fights in his favour
