Can't wait I got Wlad

I'm really not trying to get my hopes up, because normally i just end up getting crushed. But it if comes off, sick sick fight.

Joshua vs eric molina is more likely!

Boxing fans should try and stay positive about this, rather than dismissing the possibly altogether ("Eddie Hearn, huh huh, such a twat, huh huh...") If Mayweather–Pacquiao and Wladimir–Haye can happen, this should be no problem. Have some faith.

Mega event!!!!!!Make it happen!!!

[SN!PER]

I have to admit it would be awesome if Klitschko returns hungrier than ever and knocks Joshua out cold.

But I believe Wlad will crumble under the pressure and force of Joshua.

A fighter is at his most dangerous after a loss.

AJ could get smashed here in 4

I think Klitschko is too smart for Joshua right now. I don't know.

Hearn mentions Klitschko too much IMO. I have a feeling they are using his name to hype Joshua's next fight and will find some excuse last minute on why the fight couldn't happen.

Would LOVE this fight though.

Something that gives me hope is that Klitschko was interviewed on Norwegian TV during the Brækhus fight on Oct 1. He said something about a title fight and then felt he overspoke and corrected himself. Almost felt like if the fight was already made. But i don't remember all the details.
