    He should have fought your mancrush Hrgovic at least.
    Hrgovic can’t fight because there’s no belt on the line is there it wouldn’t make sense when they are both waiting for the IBF to be available ? Your to much of a clown to realize that just like your much of one not understanding the Ngannou fight was going to happened instead of Wallin but he wasn’t ready .

    The last fact you probably won’t understand it’s the Saudis making this fight not Hearn so it’s not even a question why this fight is happening now, now go get your tin foil hat and put it on .

      Its not that it was unworkable. Its that it was too much work for the Fast 1 if the Sauds didn't want to pay for it.

        I am also aware the WBA and IBF situations are not exactly analogous. Fury - Usyk is a unification, a rematch wouldn't be (unless they draw the first fight). But there is nonetheless a process the IBF has to go through before stripping a fighter unless a fighter has actually signed a contract to face a different opponent, so there are similarities.

        It could all happen, but it's unlikely. For it to happen, they would need:
        • Fury and Usyk actually fight
        • They actually fight on the arranged date (no injuries etc)
        • No-one retires after the fight
        • IBF issue their mandatory
        • The loser invokes the rematch clause quickly (how long does the contract allow?)
        • The contract for a rematch gets signed
        • The IBF decide to strip the holder
        • The IBF endorse Joshua v Hrgovic for the vacant strap
        ​​​​​​You could write your own ticket on the odds of all that happening. Never mind it all happening within, say, 4 weeks. It's fantasy stuff.

          What a load of horsesh.!t by an A-Side Joshy apologist.

          Joshua didn't "need" all of that, his fragile diva insecurites wanted or even demanded it.

          All it would have taken was for him to say, " I want Hrgovic, next Eddie, MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!"

            It's all fact. For it to be a title fight all of those things would have to happen in double quick time.

            Otherwise I'll agree with you. Joshua would not try to make a fight with Hrgovic just for the sake of the fight.

            I can completely understand that. You should be able to understand that.

              A-Side Joshy is only interested in title fights so he fights Ngannou...lol

              I understand AJ is looking to quack his way to a 3 time world champion fighting cans and "exhibitions" now.

                Which title do you want him to sign up to fight for?

                There aren't any available.

                  The GQA...Global Quacking Association super heavyweight division since he owns the undisputed Heavyweight crown already.

                  Fück the alphabet orgs and their trash titles. Fight the best and clear out the division.

                  That's not too much to ask is it ?

                    Depends on who you are asking it of.

                    It seems you only expect that of one man. Hrgovic, Zhang, Sanchez, Andersen, Dubois, Kabayel, Parker shouldn't fight each other... Joshua should fight them.

                      Joshua hasnt fought any of them bar Parker 6 years ago.

                      I expect all the top guys to make the effort and at least call other guys out.

                      The only person AJ calls is his pimp Fast Eddie to ask where his fluffy princess ass needs to be next.
