Well according to the BBC the IBF has just ordered Whyte v Pulev to get a crack at AJ,the article went on to say this could cause problems for AJ who wants to get the WBC belt but could conceivably have to end up dropping his IBF belt. Of course none of this will be of any concern to Whyte who was calling out Povetkin the other day,he just wants his shot at a title. Have to say I don’t understand the politics of boxing as it seems wrong how one can fight the divisions best pick up what belts there are and then get punished by being ordered to fight or drop the belt,I would understand this in a Stevenson type scenario but in this case where someone is serious of becoming undisputed it does seem wrong.
Yes if Pulev performance against Chisora is anything to go by then you’d expect Pulev to win easy though I’d give Whyte a better chance than Chisora.
Yes he has a better chance, but I doubt it he can win. Whyte probably beats anyone not named Joshua, Wilder, Parker, Ortiz, Povetkin or Pulev.
I'm not too sure about that, remember it will be in the UK and this one likely is quite close and goes to the scorecards.
Joshua is ducking Wilder and they did duck Ortiz. There’s a Video after Wlad Hearn and company wanted him no where near Ortiz.
I think aj and hearns right to a degree. While aj,s been taking risks fighting klitchko and parker. The majority of thems not really earning a shot at the titles. Povetkin knocks out price or whyte knocking out Browne isn't really worthy of demanding anything from Joshua. Ortiz got knocked out. Pulevs done nothing. The rest of thems done nothing of note either. Wilders got the best shout with the Ortiz win. But not a lot else. At least he,s got something credible to push a fight with. Everyone else just look like they need another decent win. At least with parker....he tested himself with 3 trickys fights before turning up. The rest of them need to simmer down a bit make fights with the other/s then come back and look for the Joshua fight. They should just get the Joshua v wilder fight on next. Before guys start getting unwarranted mandatory positions.
The Wilder fight would be massive and Hearn does not want to jeapordise it so Whyte will act as the buffer

Joshua ducking Whyte now? People are already claiming Joshua is ducking Wilder/Povetkin/Miller if he doesn't fight them next. I'm no boxing historian, but have we ever had a 3 on 1 handicap match in boxing?
