Wouldnt need much prep to KO Oquendo . World championship belt within a month for Miller. DAZN haters are going to have fits.
I reckon its going to be Oquendo. Then Ortiz or Povetkin early next year and then if the Joshua fight does not get made I can see the winner of Ortiz vs Miller being Joshua's USA Debut opponent. The clever thing Hearn seems to be doing is signing the sellable Heavyweight opponents leaving Wilder with not many places to go after Fury.
Fighting Adamek actually hurt Miller's record. I dropped him to 75th place in my rankings. I think he should fight Joey Abell on November to start the rebuilding of his career.
lol a 2 weight world champion, 3 weight world title challenger and future hall of famer? The Big Baby hate is real. Let's not forget Wilder, Joshua and Whyte all fought their own 39 year old this year.... for titles. None of the small heavies, old or young can even dream of hanging with a 320 pound Miller.
Eddie spiked Charrs bratwurst just to get Miller an easy shot at a title. Just so that Hearn can market him as an American World Heavyweight Champion. It's sad to see the lengths this man will go to to make a dollar.
I don't hate Miller at all. I think he has real potential and will give anyone in top 10 a decent fight. But clearly Adamek is totally shot , has bene for a while, and was never a bona fide HW anyway. Miller needs to talk less and step up and prove himself.
yeah I know, I agree. Pretty sure he does as well. But I agree with Miller 100%, step it up... after he gets the WBA strap. If he fights Oquendo next month, then any fight after that will be promoted as a world title fight for Millers belt. Puts him in a commanding economic position to make some real money against guys who are going to have to be the 'B' side in some big fights for Miller.
You're right and i guess the strategy makes sense. But it's a sad state of affairs when WBA's poundland belt is used as a means of bargaining for proper title fights. "sad state of affairs" kind of sums up WBA though.
