Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua-Dominic Breazeale Finalized For June 25th

[Weebler I]

Are their records that different?

Mansour would give trouble to anyone on Joshua's record.

I don't hate the fight.

[juggernaut666]

the two times he didn't look so great happen to be the two times he fought anyone worth a damn. kassi was robbed and the mansour win was almost as lucky as martin's glazkov win

he just looks awful to me. totally uncoordinated and ineffectual. joshua is going to ragdoll him

The problem is with a guy with talent like Breazeale is he's a sleep walker type fighter. He fights like he's day dreaming ,hes going to be sleeping fast if he doesn't focus in this fight. I still think the skills are there to give AJ a better fight than Whyte or Martin. Everyone always fights the champion harder ,so expect the best out Breazeale, but not a miracle. I also wouldn't call the Kassi fight a complete robbery, he was the aggressor and took control of the fight in the later rounds. I would have to watch that one again. Hes a good solid puncher with better skill sets than anyone so far that AJ faced all together. I don't think Breazeale would have troble picking Martin apart that I can see.

The question is how many fights is he allowed before he starts facing his mandatories?

He will get three defences in before Pulev or Parker are mandated, another two after Breazeale, say Jennings and Molina. I think Duhaupas is too dangerous, with all this said and done I'm not expecting to see him face a mandatory before he faces Wilder, Fury, Klitschko orPovetkin.

Looking at Breazeales Track record

Yasmany Consuegra - Couldnt avoid his right hands, got hit flush several times until consuegra basically gave up

Fred Kassi - Was totally outbox and lucky that Kassi had no power

Amir Mansour - Was dropped, hurt, roughed up and lost every rounds until the freak injury

So since he stepped up his competetion, he didnt look good once

[R_Walken]

I like the fight , good match up

I like how AJ is fighting so often

[ShoulderRoll]

If they wanted an American for Joshua's next fight then I wish they would have picked Bryant Jennings.

That would at least be competitive and maybe answer some questions about AJ.

he needs to win a fight and get himself ranked

stiverne-jennings would be nice

[emre belozoglu]

I think it's a decent fight breazeale looks to have some ability to me only seen the mansour fight though, have no time for Molina, and don't really want to see Jennings and stiverne take another loss straight away. daupas is decent as well but more keen on breazeale

The co headline is a good solid competitive match up and the winner versus Smith as a main event is PPV worthy. Smith is one of the best prospects to come out of the UK in years, time will tell but I suspect he'll be the best super middle around for a long time, I expect he'll be ruling the division and likely hand GGG his first loss.

On topic the main event is a dud and will be less competitive than this Saturday gone's affair between GGG and Wade. Its a dier match up, the fact Molina and Duhaupas were available and are proven durable competitors when AJ needs rounds before facing the likes of Klitschko and Wildrr make it all the more laughable.

Their is no justification for this fight.

Completely agree. Especially as those guys are coming off legit impressive wins over solid guys, especially Duhaupas. I understand that they want an american because of American TV, but f'king hell man, this isn't a good start.

Groves vs Murray is a decent domestic fight. Nobody really craved that fight. Both of them are multiple time losers on the big stage. I mean, it's really nothing special imo.

Overall decent saturday night card, but it will be PPV because of AJ.

Molina, Duhaupas or Arreola would all have been better if Hearn is only prepared to work with Haymon matching his cash cow against no hopers.

Breazele couldn't live with Mansour, what you think gonna happen once AJ touches this bum ? It's gonna be 'lights out in London'. All of the above would have been better match ups, these guys have all proven somewhat durable.

He would've gotten killed if he fought any of those fighter. Wilder got killed for fighting both those fighters after he won his belt. Suddenly Molina and Duhaupas are world beaters because they won their last fight? And Arreola is injured. I called it before the Martin fight. Martin was criticized for taking the Joshua fight and I said Joshua will be criticized for whomever he picks as his first defense. The only fights people wouldn't complain about are Fury, Wilder, or Parker. And they all have fights scheduled.
