    Joshua has the power to take this one early . I hope he does as it could set up a summer showtime with Fury , where according to Edward Hearn , the deal is already done.

      Sounds like Warren.
      Usyk v Fraudy should be the only option.

        Feels like Franklin is saying this to sort of rationalise being knocked out (if it happens) he can say told you all aj was far from done. Always strange to see an opponent speak like this before a fight almost sounds like Franklin's in awe of him.

          I'm just interested to see how AJ implements the gameplan under the direction of Derrick James. This will be telling if he's ready to attack the division like he should.

            Franklin isn’t good. Whyte is and always was a PED fraud pretender Hearn hype job. If Joshua has any issues with this can, he is ready for the fertilizer factory

                Is James in the UK yet. Wonder if Spence will be. Crawford came with Bomac for Khans fight

                  AJ was training in Texas with Spence and Frank Martin for this camp, but they, Joshua and James, should be there now.

                    Anyone who thinks Joshua is finished is just being too simplistic in their view. Joshua is a huge man with decent skills. It is just that he got the shock of his life when smaller guys showed heart and fought back hard...something he wasn't used to since he would knock them out.

                    AJ has good power and is improving. I am sure he can beat everyone not in the top 5 and will occasionally beat those in the top-5 as well, just not consistently. AJ has a chance to win those belts back and become champion again, but he won't be able to hold on to them for long if Wilder, Fury, Usyk, and Joyce fight him for the belt(s).
