Comments Thread For: Hearn: Joshua Wanted Whyte, It's Dangerous, He's Risking Wilder Fight

[Kzbox]

Well that’s funny considering he was waffling on Twitter saying it’s the first he’s heard of it thats well after the rumours until Eddie forced him to take it down.

What is a glory hunter? Right now I feel that there are 2 elite fighters in the hw division which are fury and Usyk. Whyte is not elite and while Aj was promoted as elite, we’ve seen him fold under pressure on more than one occasion. Amateur success is a different story. As a pro we’ve seen him quit in the ring, fall apart in the championship rounds and then have post fight melt downs. Don’t consider him elite at this point. That’s it.

Joshua has never folded under pressure really, he has just been beaten.

Usyk beat Joshua twice, Joshua never under performed in the rematch regardless of what certain folk state 'Usyk just quite simply beat him on that night'.

Once upon a time Joshua was a elite fighter in the Heavyweight division, and so was Deontay Wilder 'Now they are not elite fighters on merit.

Falling apart on the Championship rounds? Did Usyk knock him down? Was the fight stopped? No.

Do you rate Deontay Wilder as a fighter ? Who do you think will win out of Wilder and Joshua?

Note: Anthony Joshua has been the favorite for every single fight as a professional he has EVER fought 'Accept for one fight, which was the Usyk rematch'. That is pressure mate, that is a kind of pressure very few active fighters have competed under.

Joshua was favorite against Wladimir Kiltschko in his 19th professional fight, at home in-front of 90'000 fans in attendance 'When really Joshua for me should not of been favorite for that fight'.

There is more evidence of Joshua performing well under pressure, than there is of him folding badly under pressure throughout his carer 'Joshua is held to a extremely high standard even as a contender' etc.

Joshua is not a champ, he has no belt to defend, he can fights whoever he wants. Whyte is a logical choice and this is not a very dangerous fight.

Ahhh. Just what the sport needs. More British level fights.

Keep the same energy when Fury fights Chisoras.
