Comments Thread For: Hearn: Joshua Announcement Next Week, Klitschko in Lead

[Szef]

Not opening a champagne bottle yet, but it looks like this fight might really happen...

If it does, last quarter of the year will make up for the first 9 months which were kind of 'meh'.

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

Vitali is mayor and both have p.h d's ...smarts run in the family !

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.

i think wlad could knock AJ out,
he is hungry its clear to see he was training hard for the fury rematch

i really do think that wlad has a lot left in the tank and fury made him look bad as oppose to wlad actually being bad...

fury won because of feints, movement and boxing skills,

imo i think AJ thinks after the fury fight he could just walk through wlad but i think wlads jab will cause him problems and experience will be key

either way looking forward to this fight,
just dont count wlad out because of his last performance

Perfect timing for this fight. One is a great who is declining and the other a potential champion not fully in his prime yet. This fight would be huge.

I am worried about Hearn not wanting this fight though. AJ could fight journymen for years and would still sell out arenas and sell PPV's. Brits will hail him as the king even if he never fights Klitschko, Wilder, Fury etc. He has alot to lose.

Promoter Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Sport expects to announce Anthony Joshua's opponent next week. Joshua, who holds the IBF's heavyweight championship, is currently slated to return on November 28th in Manchester.

I know I'm in the minority but I really don't want to see this in a way....unless he's totally shot, which I doubt, he'll still have his power and should be very motivated for AJ....I think he could still ruin AJ before his career gets going
