    So now we know Team Ortiz didn't want it is Hunter the new 'worst nightmare/bogeyman' for Joshua now he didn't win the Joshua payday sweepstakes?

    I'm glad as I want Hunter to develop as a heavyweight and go into a title fight really expecting to win.

    Your opinion was wrong and mine was right, your second opinion was half right but more slightly bordering on bonkers.

    What is your opinion on that then?

    Because if it is anything like your third or in between the first and second opinion then you are definitely wrong based on the fact you may not respond to the first answer to my first question in this response.

    I await your response and opinion on that.

    Povetkin was destroyed by Wlad in his prime 5 years ago FFS and was an old man by the time Tony Dosh PPV fought him.

    David Price has the old man dancing all the way back to his corner just to prove the point he was finished and well past it.

    The Heavyweight Division is currently full of puddings and the only current fights of any relevance for a unified Heavyweight Champion are Fury, Wilder and Usyk.

    Rice Pudding Ruiz is a farce and we all know it

    Hunter was poor against bakole. I know he did well against usyk but I'm not sure what everyone sees in him.

    I think Eddie is right his only chance would have been to run the whole fight until AJ pins him down eventually.

    Would have been a total mismatch. Ruiz would batter him too.

    He hasn’t called Joshua a ‘pudding’ - just ‘Tony Dosh’.

    If you think AJ is scared to fight Hunter you've got to be joking. Hearn just obviously thinks stylistically AJ following a smaller man round the ring is not as good for the casual as AJ absolutely teeing off on Ruiz because he can't move his legs enough.

    Agree it’s about styles. If you’re introducing your British fighter to the American public you don’t want him having to chase a fighter around Gashi style. This is essentially an audition, you go in there with someone who’s going to make you look good. Ruiz will go looking for him.

    Agreed. I don't believe any of the 'top 3' are scared to fight each other. You simply don't get to the top level of sport without total self-belief. The problem is greed and ego.

    Unfortunately, there's so much money in these fights that the promoters, networks and fighters themselves want to make as much money from them as possible. The egos of the fighters too - who gets what %, who's the 'A Side' etc.

    I don't believe for one second that any of them are 'scared' of each other though. They've near enough all sparred each other many times anyway, it's not exactly a great unknown.

    When did I post Joshua was a pudding?

    I posted that apart from Wlad, his CV is full of puddings.

    Never thought it possible but the Tony Dosh puddings are even worse than the Klit era
