    Bad idea. But Joshua's career, up to him to decide.

    Madness. If it was a lucky punch fair enough but he was beaten up badly. What worries me the most about him was his lack of awareness when it came to keeping his guard up and his chin tucked in and he still doesn't know how to hold properly.

    Hearn's obviously looking at it as an immediate situation.


    The dice is getting rolled again.

    If they don't roll a six and AJ gets smashed again, Hearn knows there's still a payday or two more even in the aftermath.

    He's looking realistically at how many fights AJ has left anyway, and he's done his sums and he sees it as all ok as an overall bottom line, win, lose, or draw, regardless of fight result sequence. The dosh is there...

    It's like giving Trevor Berbick an immediate rematch with Mike Tyson.

    Actually Berbick was champion, so it's not even as 'reasonable' as that.

    Joshua is not going to win. Why not take a different path?

    It's disappointing that the possibility of this rematch is even being discussed. We have Parker, Zhang, Kabayel, Bakole waiting in line for a title shot. Even Filip Hrgovic deserves a shot more than AJ. Loads of fighters deserve a shot more than AJ.

    His excellency knows what he wants, Fury v Joshua for all the belts. Still the biggest fight in boxing without belts but for all the marbles, massive!!

    I don't get the pushback.

    Usyk and Fury are rematching.

    Didn't everyone enjoy this fight? It was good action, good upset, why wouldn't we wanna see it again?

    Because it was a one sided beat down. Did Charles Martin get a rematch against AJ?

    Weird since first was a very one sided beating. It probably be another fun fight but I rather see them fight other opponents. DD vs Parker and AJ vs Wilder sounds better to me.
