Exactly. Dillian Whyte IS Jermaine Franklin level.

Hearn talking nonsense & acting like an innocent bystander
Nothing stopping AJ having another 2 tune up fights at Franklin's level.
Gym fights with nda signed. He can afford to pay a couple of guys half a million each or thereabouts for real fights away from the public
It's less to do with the public demand & is more the fact Hearn has little to offer DAZN yet promised the earth.
He needs viewing numbers or he's without a platform.
Canelo guarantees & makes up for all the other low numbers in the year.
AJ was the same but has lost his sheen
It's Hearn pulling strings & looking for more cash in his own pocket

Don't think Hearn is proposing he fights Whyte twice. Whyte/Fury/Wilder were the names he said. Any two combinations from this three would be a step above two fights at the level of Jermaine Franklin, woudn't you say?

Its time to cash out vs Fury in UK before its too late and AJ could get beaten again by a low profile fighter.. Ruiz Jr and Usyk took AJ's manhood.

If Hearn is talking nonsense, your suggestion that Joshua drops a million to have real fights with no audience is bigger nonsense. Would that leave him with any further fights with an actual audience in 2023? Seems a good way to further derail his career, while draining his bank account. Or are you suggesting he fights Fury in 2023 also after these two fights? Seems like a shortcut to CTE.

Give to Greedy King Fury a 70-20% split and AJ has a fight!

Fans don’t want to see AJ fight someone franklins level, they want to see AJ fight the guy who fans thought beat Whyte

[HeadShots]

That means the Public is DEFINITELY getting 1 more fight at Franklin's level.


Hearn needs his skull bashed in
