Before you say "McDonalds" or something even funnier lol, I actually would be interested in seeing how he fares against some of the other prospects....
The first fight that comes to mind which I like the sound of is Charles Martin vs Joseph Parker. This would be an even fight imo despite the crushing defeat to Joshua and it would be a good gauge to see where Parker is in his progress.
Charles Martin vs Dillian Whyte also could be an interesting one.
Opinions....
He's set for life now, and his name value will still get him one or two decent paydays too.
Even though he wasn't any good, it's nice to see what looks like a humble and nice guy get some big money.
This is it.
This is the best case scenario for all boxers. They all deserve this kind of luck really. Well a lot of them.
Only judging him from my own perspective. I would not be willing to fight for $50,000 or whatever after that. Seems sensible enough.
I'd be smiling too if Joshua knocked me on my arse for £5 million.

Probably full circle to where he was before this whole crazy merry-go-round - back to being a mostly unknown North American level heavyweight, albeit now without the unbeaten record or any relevance in terms of being a belt holder. He can probably retire now to be honest...he is never going to accomplish more than he has already by being in the right place at the right time...might as well call it a day and live his life with his new found wealth.
Probably will carry on if there are decent money fights out there for him though.
I think fights like Brezeale, Chisora, Malik Scott, Whyte, Glazcov rematch, Duhuapas, Molina etc are decent and would probably be quite interesting to watch.
Even though he got cleaned out the exposure from this fight could lead to a few reasonable paydays for him.
People know his name now
I dont think he is as terrible as some are making out. Get back into the gym and keep learning
i guess he can be involved in some good north american level fights. he held the NABO for a while but never had to face anyone decent for it. wouldn't mind seeing him vs guys like arreola, mansour, rossy, molina, etc.
Probably fight a guy like Breazeale, if he wants to continue fighting. He can make pretty good money fighting prospects being a gate keeper and being a stay busy type of guy for someone a bit higher end if he can get a couple wins.
A gatekeeper basically, anyone who isn't the goods he stands a good chance of beating but anyone who is the goods should beat him. Not a terrible gig as a heavy who naturally get paid more.
He'll probably get another decent fight on the back of the fact everyone knows his name now. He'll get a fight with a top 10 or top 15 guy, get knocked out and then we'll probably not really hear from him again.
That's my prediction anyway. Or if he really did make £5m, he might just not bother fighting again.
He knew he won the lottery in the fashion he won that vacant title and he cashed in at the first chance he got, rather than lose it for peanuts. Can't blame him though, it was a very smart financial move.
