    Will be interesting if that doesn’t happen too . Wonder what AJ detractors will say?

    AJ has vulnerabilities no doubt - just not as black and white as some here make out.
    Don't worry they'll find something to b1tch about

      This is disappointing, I was hoping he’d fight Hrgovic but Ngannou has the bigger profile and money talks. I’m happy for Ngannou though as he comes across as a decent human being.

          Ngannou is getting knocked the **** out in an easy fight for Joshua.

            Francis won me over in the Fury fight. Proved he can hang with a guy who is arguably the best in the division and one of the best of all time according to some. He has power, a good chin and the shot he dropped Fury with was very similar to the one Ruiz initially hurt AJ with. Risky fight for AJ because even if he wins he won't get much credit because Francis is an MMA fighter. Should be fun to watch two big, powerful mofo's throwing bombs though.

              Be interesting to see if Hrgovic is on the same card or fights around the same time. And if so who. Needs a proper test before going in with AJ

                Nothing more nothing less
                Just another man trying to make a dollar
                Like me , you or the next human but what a fughin blow to the sport for those who spend time and sweat to be be at that level , right ?
                Only to be levelled by a guy who never went through that
                Crossover is a fughin farce
                Then you got Fughin Headshots saying boxing is dead
                About as dead as his mother pulling a train for mma
                Long live mother Headshot for all the Head in the world
                But boxing is dead just like punk must die
                A couple more tik taks or tok and Rock and Roll is dead again.
                I fought the law and the law won but they never and ever will take our beliefs away

                  That's literally the most naive take ever, if you're invested enough in the sport to waste your time looking up boxing forums and sharing your opinion about said sport and are willing to have back and forths with people your more involved/invested than joe blogs who attends the fights on a whim...

                  And this goes for anything games, cooking, tv shows whatever if you're going above what is "normal" for an average person/consumer then you're by default more invested and inherently more valuable.

                  Like I said the naivety involved in your take is embarrassing to be frank, it's tantamount to saying reviews are pointless even though the reviewer has went ABOVE AND BEYOND to let their opinion be known good or bad.

                    I don't think anyone has had anything close to this tough of a schedule than Ngannou in 2 pro fights besides Pete Radamacher who debuted vs Floyd Patterson for the HW belt & fought Zora Folley in fight 2.
                    Yeah interesting nobody gives praise to Ngannou for the competition he's facing in two fights ,by the time the joshua fights over he'll have a better fighters on his record than wilder ever had

                      You A Alright
                      Just watch over yourself because you spewed crazy chit
                      According to the hierarchy in the NSB , we are crazy to have seen the same thing
                      But argue enough with them and they will say ,arguably the same man , they suppose to be the best in the division is the same man who squeaked by a mma fighter
                      Now the hopes are , the other best in the division who got beat by an over rated fat boxer will beat the man as nothing is
                      But some will say , this is the most defining heavyweight since bah , sliced bread without the peds
                      Happy New Year to you and your loved ones in case you get caught in the whirlwind of bullchit
                      I’m going back in my safe house now , where money transfers are still receivable and safe lol
                      Godspeed you dark emperor
