    All that needs to happen is the Saudis pay them enough.
    IBF belt must become vacant, because it would be for IBF belt most likely.

      TBF there's a difference in the champ fighting a 0-0 MMA fighter and a contender taking him on after pushing the champ to a disputed decision and becoming ranked.

      Team AJ will want to say they dealt with both Wallin and Ngannou more easily than Fury to build interest in a fight. I can't blame them for that.

        But I guess Hrgovic will want more than 1 month to prepare for Joshua. So, more likely is Joshua -Hrgovic in the summer.
        Think you're right apart from if the IBF stipulate when the fight should happen by but even then that seems too soon for an end of March date

          Fury can say he dealt with Wlad and Whyte without any issues unlike AJ

          So they would be ****** to go down that route and way of promoting themselves.

          Anyway its really just about money.

            There is obviously a duck coming.

            Whoever AJ fights, it's always a duck of somebody else.

              Ngannou proved he is the biggest puncher in boxing history by getting the highest score ever recorded on the punch power machine at UFC HQ.

                But not as over-rated as Wilder was.

                  Correction ... hardest punch in the history of the punch power machine at UFC HQ.

                    Hrgovic isn’t overrated he’s underrated, prior to Joshua walking over Wallin the consensus was Joshua was avoiding him and someone who gave Fury a hard time which he did but now he’s reduced to a hype job who can’t punch .

                    If Joshua announced Hrgovic as his next opponent it would change from he’s about to duck which it is now to he’s avoiding Zhang if he were to announce the fight .

                      If Fury beats Usyk, surely it's a no-brainer to make Fury-Joshua for Wembley stadium, which would be huge.

                      The atmosphere for a big fight is just not as good in Saudia Arabia, at least for viewers.

                      Any rematch clause with Fury and Usyk might scupper that fight for 2024, but hopefully not.
