Waste of time , just another bum

Josh in four

Hasn't really got a choice to avoid being stripped. Get this one out the way and move on. If Wilder beats Ortiz I expect to see that sooner than later.

Another horizontal heavyweight?

100% agree with that, another bum for Joshuas very carefully picked career from eddie hearn. I see Hughie Fury beating parker then hearn dodging a fight between him and AJ as Fury would comfortably out box AJ.

Eastern European punchbag , no threat at all to Joshua

There's only 1 fight out there where AJ will be tested.

What are you going on about? Its a mandatory defence against Pulev, he has to fight him or he would be stripped of the IBF belt.

Presume you are talking about Fury? I think people need to forget about him, he's looks about 30 stone and keeps talking about retiring, even his trainer Peter Fury seems to be losing interest in him.

Yes i agree with you on that, its a shame as Tyson Fury and AJ would be huge and if we still had the 2015 Fury that beat Klitscko i think he would of beaten AJ in a one sided UD. When AJ beats Pulev would be interesting if he does fight Ortiz after as he is the man alot have avoided. Suppose its all down to eddie hearn and the money

According to Hearn the plan is Pulev(IBF mandatory), Luiz(W.B.A mandatory) in march/april and then Wilder in the summer.

DJ NOBO · Sep 5, 2017

I like Tyson fury a lot, but I just don't see it now.
Even at his very, very best He wouldn't necessarily beat wilder or Joshua. But He's been a blob for a long time and has become a myth.
The only thing that will stop Joshua dominating for years is complacency, like Lennox when he got sparked out a couple of times.

He has mandatory fights to keep his belts. Don't be mad at AJ, be mad at the organisations forcing these fights.

I dont think that AJ wanted the fight but it was forced upon him. Other than possibly Wilder there are no heavyweights around that would offer him a serious challenge. So what does he do just sit on his titles without defending them?

Not quite. He actually hurt/sting klitschko in there fight - enough for wlad to then ko him soon after.

He's a huge guy - but aj should be easy win. Especially with only 4 weeks training

I just watched the Pulev WK fight. That was 3 years ago and WK battered him. This could be over minutes not rounds. :lolol:
