Hearn names Pulev, Usyk and Whyte as possible opponents

All 3 would be tough fights. I'd put all of them ahead of Ortiz and Schwartz

 

Only Usyk fight appeals to me. But he needs a heavyweight fight first.

 

Hearn looking past Ruiz Jr then.. tut tut.

 

Nope,its how the business works you have to have a schedule lined up for possible guys. They already know wilder doesn't want the fight hes not really in consideration . Wilder is known to give opponents short notice to bc his team is all over the place no real brains there and they wait and see what everyone else is doing to get the easiest fight. lol

 

Whyte is the hardest fight out of all of them.

Usyk barely does any damage to Joshua loses UD if he can survive.

Pulev gets KOd at some point, doesnt bring enough to the table at this point in his age/career.

Whyte brings stamina, power, youth, hunger, durability, and is vastly improved from 4 years and 9 fights ago.

 

I would prefer Usyk or Whyte,

I really don’t rate Pulev that highly I think Joe Joyce would be a harder fight than Pulev.

 

Usyk wont be ready

 

Usyk hopefully, but he needs to spank another decent HW first.

 

Usyk is complete unrealistic for this year. I believe it's quite obvious that to fight him without any real (professional) heavyweight experience and after the injury would be a joke.

 

He'll get the mando Pulev out of the way before chasing Widler again.....

....but I'd bet its Kownacki after Ortizn't II for duck Widler, after more "patience and money" excuses

 

Maybe Usyk sees something

 

It's going to be Pulev then. Fame has already gone to Dillian's head and if he beats Rivas he's probably going to demand a 50/50 split.

Hopefully Oscar strikes that kid back to earth.

 

Yeah, for Usyk it would be a win-win opportunity, but a lose-lose for Joshua. They just need to wait a little bit more and let Usyk beat (preferably stop) a heavyweight like Takam and then Hearn can really promote a Joshua vs. Usyk fight and make it so much bigger.
