Bbbbbutttt Joshua has the better resume? Surely he can tattoo it to his chest, Wilder will see it and make him fail to knock him out?
hes normally ok sometimes hes bloody awful screaming down mic and talking rubbish he seemed better for bt maybe they pulled him into a room and told him to sound excitable n hyper
Credit for Joshua getting in the ring with Wilder in December 23. A real fighting man and I had no doubt he would face him with Eddie Hearn proving to be a man of real integrity backing up his words over the past year. Joshua has fought regular this year facing two very hard hitting dangerous opponents in Franklin and Helenius both in their prime who would have taken out the greats of the past. This is in addition to facing the heavy bag in the gym and he must be commended for his activity. Great coup getting the December 23 Joshua v Wilder fight on DAZN UK Box Office as well at the very reasonable price of £49.99 with Connor Benn on the undercard facing Canelo. What a day for Matchroom FC.
If he does fight on December 23, with no Saudi money on the table, I am of the understanding that Joshua will fight Manuel Charr for his WBA Regular Heavyweight World Title. This would give Joshua the opportunity to fight the winner of Fury vs Usyk next year. Good to see Joshua getting his confidence back. He’s the most active top heavyweight right now and his KO of “Sugar” Robert Helenius was one of the best I have ever seen live. If we get Eubank Jr vs Benn and Joshua on the same card in Abu Dhabi, that would be incredible and I see a lot of people purchasing the PPV.
Manuel Charr ticks a lot of boxes for a matchroom opponent to feed to their house heavies: Shot to pieces Old Name Zero threat joshua might even not look terrified in there for spells, we might see glimpses of “the old AJ” sticking his tongue out and bullying an overmatched opponent around the ring. Then mention Wilders name heavily in the buildup and much less heavily postfight and we have a full house. Sensational.
Big props to AJ taking on the mighty Charr. I hope he gets paid at least 20 million plus before his endorsement deals. He really deserves it for being a throwback fighter and fighting the best. If he can get past the mighty Charr he will definitely be fighting the winner of Usyk v Fury next year as they won't bother about their rematch clause. And if we get AJ fighting on the same bill as the rubbish 2 times drugs cheat and hated by nearly everyone Conor Benn it will really establish Matchroom as top dogs. Say what you like about Eddie but he always speaks the truth and when he comes out with fight opponents and dates he always delivers. Well done to Eddie, AJ and Matchroom. Their partnership with DAZN has been a phenomenal success and taken them to the next level. We boxing fans are eternally grateful for your words of wisdom and honour
Why do they need Saudi money? They have a ton of it already, generations set up for life. Ultimately, they’re not taking a fight because of greed. Joshua is done. He is fleecing the public at this stage in his career.
It is actually a great fight, he's stable on his feet, sits people down and can sometimes be carved out of wood. Edit: What an idiot, I thought people said 'Chair'.
Charr would be shocking. He was crap years ago let alone now. His biggest result was getting some publicity chasing Haye.
