Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua's Next Opponent Will Depend on Return Date, Says Hearn

[wrecksracer]

Too much money invested in AJ to see him lose anytime soon. I'll be shocked if he fights a live body in the next year

Millar is getting reinstated, him and Joshua have unfinished business, if Millar did not fail the ped test,Ruiz never would have got his shot and boxing history would be different.

Typical Eddie. Give the opponent that’s getting the gig and attach him to a dream opponent that Eddie doesn’t want.

“Whyte or wilder”. So it’s Whyte then. Won’t be wilder. They wouldn’t fight wilder with everything on the table, they won’t fight him for no title. Never ever happening.

Joshua really needs to take a long hard think to himself about what he wants out of boxing with the remainder of his career. He’s never wanted to please fans before, will he now? Will he remain the “businessman”?

It's all just business for Hearn and Joshua. But let's be honest, that's all professional boxing is s anyway. But you're right, Hearn isn't letting Wilder anywhere near Joshua. It's Joshua -Whyte in April/May

…straight into the right of Wilder.

He obviously thinks he can’t beat Fury right now. But he thinks he can beat him at some point down the road? Or make some good money on the way, before cashing out on a fight with Fury. It makes sense. It looks better than being beat twice then being manhandled and brutally KO’d. The money will be better on this route as well.

It must be tough to keep that fire burning after losing to the same guy twice in a row.

Does anyone want to see Whyte or Chisora fight, vs anyone? Ever again?

Yes.....Hearn..

[baroidi]

he should just retire, he made a fortune and accomplished more than he should've. If he gets destroyed by Fury/Wilder, his entire legacy will be further tarnished. His mental game seems to be totally shattered, and that is a vital factor.

Hearn will bleed Joshua dry .....He calls him a friend but people like Hearn don't have them....Hearn guided Joshua away from Wilder and then Fury maybe for the best but Joshua will live to regret these times.Does anyone really want to see Joshua v Whyte 2 in a stadium fight with both taking recent bad losses ? It's on par with Fury v Chisora but at least Fury has a bigger aim.
