Will Turki take back the keys of the Kingdom now...

I still don't care at all about any fight with miller. And I'm sure others feel the same way. But, let's say say you're right about not facing Parker yet. If not v Parker, then... I'll say Zhang. Parker already fought him so, although indirect, it's still a measure. Plus, he's gotta be aging out soon. But I would like to see Kabayel and Bakole. Maybe they should fight eachother in the interim, or Parker.

Parker vs Dubois is my first vote. I don't see AJ vs Zhang unless he plans to play keep-away for the first 5 rounds and wait for Zhang to fatique. Maybe he would take Miller, but who cares about that garbage match? If Usyk only has one fight after beating Fury again, I suppose I'd like it to be either vs Parker for the first time or DDD for the 2nd time. I think Parker is the other top guy now, being on the rise. So I'd prefer that. And although I'd like to see it Usyk could beat the "new?" DDD, it would be a shame for DDD if Usyk took his new confidence and runined his trajectory. Just the build-up to that fight will be pure entertainment :cool: I think AJ has one fight left on the Riyadh season and he will have to take a top-tier fight if he wants to be signed again and get paid well. He will have to fight a legit challenge and not an Otto or a Jermaine. Miller sells, Zhang sells given they do have a history, and Fury sells. Eddie's been saying he would advise AJ to rest and see till the 21st of December so that tells me they do not want AJ to fight a legit contender in-between because that could ruin whatever interest there will be in a Joshua-Fury match if he loses again. AJ may want to rematch Dubois but after he gets a chance at Fury as that is the big money fight. Dubois probably fights Bakole, Kabayel, or Zhang. I am not sure they will go with Parker after back-to-back four difficult fights for Dubois.

AJ coulda, shoulda, woulda but didn't and that's on him. Realistic enough ? No. Do better trolling.

He already beat Parker, would've fought Hrgovic for the title if he beat Dubois, signed to fight Wilder, but Wilder lost and apparently was gonna duck Dubois to fight Zhang instead. AJ got steamrollered and deserves to be trolled, but at least make your trolling realistic. AJ coulda, shoulda, woulda but didn't and that's on him. Realistic enough ?

I am not sure, is Warren happy for his guy or is he pissed because Fury - Joshua is dead in the water? F.uck Fury and Joshua. they had years to make the fight , when it mattered.

I think we'll still see some interesting and exciting fights but he'll have to pay a lot less to make them happen. Depending on who wins between Fury and Usyk and a potential rematch between Dubois vs Joshua, we could still have some interesting fights. AJ vs Miller will be pure entertainment, Parker vs Dubois is nice, AJ vs Zhang is good, and a Usyk-Dubois rematch would be exciting as well. Parker vs Dubois is my first vote.

Hes gonna have way fewer toys to play with soon if you consider the stage of their career guys like AJ, Fury, Usyk, Wilder, Beterbiev, Zhang etc are at.

Doesn't Turki just work with a bunch of promoters? I don't get it. I think he just goes to all of them and says I want x vs y and will pay x make it happen. Z is generally a high number

I don't think it changes too much. Even with him losing, there are still big fights to make. Dubois-AJ rematch doesn't interest me much but would still generate a lot of money in the UK, as would either of them vs Fury. Warren might want the rematch too, a big payday for his fighter in a fight he'd be expected to win. Will depend on Usyk/Fury. I don't see AJ ducking Parker. If anything, that's the ideal next opponent for him. Parker doesn't hit as hard as Dubois or most of the top 10, and isn't as skilled as Usyk. AJ is probably still in his physical prime or close to it, so could box that same fight he did last time, and mentally he'd handle a Parker fight best because they've already fought once without AJ having real problems. Parker deserves full respect for his recent wins, but he didn't become a far better fighter, he's just better vs some styles than others. Despite all his other flaws, AJ has a better jab than Wilder or Zhang, better footwork, wouldn't just slowly follow Parker around the ring looking for one shot.

By some accounts it doesn't have to be a Dubois rematch if Turki doesn't stump for it. Just like Zhang has a rematch clause for Parker he tried to activate but Turki paid him to fight Wilder instead. Joshua was given the keys to the Kingdom and told he could pick and choose his opponents. He chose Wallin and Ngannou and ducked Wilder, Parker, Zhang and Hrgovic. I somehow don't think he gets to choose his opponents anymore. If Turki wants AJ to fight Bakole rather than Dubois again, that's who he's gonna fight or he could retire. AJ aint the shot caller no more!

I think it’s pretty obvious Warren is pulling the strings. Hearn is in over his head. We saw that in the 5 vs 5, we’ve also seen Cacace smash Cordina and Dubois smash AJ, in both those fights it was the MR fighter with more to lose and the QB fighter with everything to gain. F*** Fury and AJ, they had years to make that fight, they blew it, lets hope Usyk puts the final nail in the coffin in December. Hopefully Turki sees Hearn and AJ as the useful idiots who've outlived their usefulness. Sure Hearn might have a rematch card to play but if Turki dont want to pay and Warren calls his bluff then its curtains for the AJ in Saudi show with Fast Eddie reduced to licking windows again. The boxing world seems done with Fury and his fückwit fathers bluster too. Time they rode off into the Morecambe sunset as well but not until Usyk batters Tyson one more time.
