    I think Andrey rudencko would be a great fight for Joshua, his got a good skill level and a good chin, would be a great fight for him

    Clear that Hearn is going to try and build the PPV hype using a fighter like Briggs. The build would be fun but what does beating him achieve?

    It could be interesting but it should be dominant in Joshua's favour.

    When a fighter does 400k buys then Hearns made a rod for his own back. He needs to develop Joshua while making fights PPV worthy.

    I was watching Rogan and Schaub and what surprises me is that the yanks know who Joshua is and rate him! The yanks usually couldn't give a s*** about British produce!

    Apart from Briggs, Haye and Fury, who could "sell" a fight to be PPV?

    If people want to pay to watch a broken down bum like Briggs get demolished then fine. I won't be one of them.

    from all previous comments:

    1. you are deluded if u believe its a step down from Whyte - defo not! Briggs is a former world champ, still in great shape and can still bang.

    2. Chisora fight wont happen for AJ's next fight. Chisora is still rebuilding his name after many L's and bad performances so the time is not right. Sauerlands even have said they want helenius next not Joshua. Chisora fight will happen just not yet they gonna build it up still.

    3. If you still are gonna hate name an opponent other than Fury/Haye/Klit/Wilder/Chisora than will sell like Whyte did as a PPV in AJ's very next fight.

    personally looking at it this is the best match making possible for the very next PPV

    I agree... if he can find a time machine between now and entering the ring.
