    Anthony Joshua is not tied to fighting for Abdulaziz bin Turki Al Saud. This is the major leagues of combat sports, not the UFC. He is free to fight for whoever he likes against any opponent he chooses; then return to Saudi Arabia to sell his services to them.

    Are you saying that the pros on that list are cans? They are top one percenters.
    Hearn isn't getting out of bed to answer any calls for AJ unless they are the desert turki or the princess diva himself.

    Meaning A-Side Joshy isn't fighting anyone that could possibly beat him until a title becomes available.

    The last person on earth Joshua would want to fight is Joseph Parker, which for me is the very reason why he should fight him.

    Parker took on the toughest assignments in his last 2 fights and is gunning for another. That being Joshua himself.

    Joshua is hiding under his bed pissing his pants cos he shat it just mentioning Parker's name.

      If Joshua fights in august or september, it will be against Wilder -Zhang winner.

      It is obvious, two old totally winnable fights for him.

      Joshua can still fight Dubois or Hrgovic next year.

        From Joshua's perspective, that would simply be astute management.

        15 minutes after "title unification" is achieved, B-belts will be shaken loose by Los Banditos, and the smart move for Joshua in a stacked division would be to snag one.

        Parker, still pretty young vs. The rest, is on a respectable roll again, and will continue building his fortune; but for Joshua; Parker remains a "been there, done that" level challenge.

        Joe had is chance to beat the pants off Joshua some time back, and did nothing.
        He didn't face the all-in Wilder, and many felt he was granted a gift against Zhang.

        Let him fight Ruiz after the top Hispanic in the world gets his wheels back, and we'll see.

          I've always felt that Wilder represents kriptonite for Joshua, and from the look of them tossing big purses and tough opponents at Wilder following his long layoff, and keeping him far far away from the fragile chinned AJ, it seems that Eddie Hearn agrees with me.

          It's all down to what Wilder has left, as AJ and EH run out the clock keeping Joshua from landing at Wilder's feet.

          Like me, they must see that Joshua has a better chance against the Fury - Usyk winner.

            Usyk v Fury?

              Joe was a boy in mans undies when he fought Joshua and even then had Joshua literally running away from him and looking for the ref.

              Now, 6 years on, Parker's filled out them undies and looking for payback.

              Ruiz and Usyk are a been there done that even more for Joshua who having fought both is a pathetic 1 win and 3 losses.

              The loss being comprehensive and the win, a 12 round snoozefest with AJ running away from Ruiz while playing pitty pat.

              It's time Hearn changed AJ's nappy, put his bigboy pants on for him and organised a fight with someone who's not old, shot, fat, a sparring partner or an MMA guy.
