    No, Hearn said Haye or Fury next year summer. Plus it's still to early for Joshua to be in with someone as dangerous as Haye, especially since Stiverne or Pulev are solid step ups for Joshua and will sell out easily. Plus it will deliver massive UK PPV numbers.

    For an IBF title fight you have to be coming off a win so unless Takam has fought since Parker beat him, forget him and Eddie has already ruled out Price.

    Think there is a fair chance that Fury has retired by November 26th. Can't see that fight happening ever!

    He's always said summer because that's when they can get Wembley. But he can't fight both in the same year at Wembley and if he waits until 2018 for Fury or Haye one of them could have retired or been beaten by then, or Joshua might have been beaten himself.

    And does Eddie really know for sure Haye is that much more dangerous then Pulev or Parker?

    Haye is just waiting for this fight and not taking any risks until he gets it, so the sooner the better for him given his age

    No chance Haye will be Joshua's opponent on Nov 26th. None.

    Would you have said days, heck, minutes prior to the Brook v Golovkin announcement 'no chance GGG will be Brook's next opponent. None.'

    You realize, Haye will demand a fortune? Haye would want to maximize his money and Eddie will want to do that for Joshua. The best place to do that is in a stadium fight, otherwise the venue will be small. Also Joshua doesn't have to fight both of them if they choose not to earn a ton of money fighting him. I doubt Haye or Fury will.

    Not my typical AJ bashing here, I'm being sincere for once.

    Haye KO2, it wouldn't even be competitive.

    I can't grasp how some people say Joshua needs to fight so and so first before stepping up. Then why is he holding a belt?

    The path that Hearn has in mind makes a lot more sense.

    Yes, I know Haye will demand a fortune, but without Sky he's not gonna earn one. The PPV buys alone will be massive, they also have Showtime backing.

    If Haye is fighting on Dave, I would imagine the budget is next to nothing, and being that Briggs is looking for a payday, I'm guessing why that fight is falling through. Haye is also smart enough to know, he is no longer the front runner for the fight next summer. Fury is in front of him, Wilder is in front of him, Joshua has a difficult mandatory with Parker coming up.

    If Haye doesn't get it in Summer 2017, he knows the chance might be gone by 2018 if Joshua isn't all he's cracked up to be and gets exposed or Haye loses himself
