Comments Thread For: Hearn: If Joshua, Miller Win, They'll Fight in August at Barclays

[SchoolTheseCats]

Although quite possible they would fight I'm not sure this makes that much sense? Surely august is a bit late in the year - unless right at beginning of month ? Would have thought Joshua would aim to fight again July - with third fight nov/dec. I suspect this is more about hyping miller up than it definitely happening; although it's a quite possible outcome. I think fighting povetkin first would be more logical.

Would be quick turn around for miller being as though he fighting end of April makes July not possibly personally mines well fight pedvetkin bring in the Russian fans and end year with wilder if not wilder in August

Ok, Hearn has learned a trick or two out of the Arum’s ‘hell with what the fans want’ chapter from Top-Prank book of thieves.

Neither Miller or his French opponent have beaten anyone .A Pointless match with a pointless outcome and Silly Eddie is saying if Miller beats this shyte opponent 'he will give him a title shot' because Wilder lives somewhere on a road in Fantasy island ....Hearn must live next door.

Well, he did mention Wilder. He said if that's not next, it will be Miller. So, it could depend on how Wilder talks go, it could also be a tactic.

I thought Povetkin would be next to be honest. Miller is shite.

Big Baby getting a shot at title? Good for him, he's a likable guy.

If this is true it will be a massive fight.. the lead up will be hilarious plus what better way for AJ to get introduced to the US and set up a fight against Wilder in the fall.

I've always said Wilder vs AJ will not happen until Both guys fight in each others country.. If Whyte beats Browne Wilder should fight him in the UK and maximise the potensial for AJ vs Wilder.. AJ needs to become a bigger name in the states and Wilder needs to KO Whyte and instantly become a HUGE name in the UK.

I wonder if he asked a bunch of people in the streets if they know who Jarrell Miller is?

Miller would never ask for 50-50.. He knows he's no big star so no need to ask people if they know him, Miller himself will admit he isn't the A side.

but gee...why on earth would joshua want to come to little old brooklyn usa when hes selling so many seats in uk soccer stadiums? gee i cant figure out why ...on earth

help me please figure this out all you UK know it alls

They're either trying to leverage Wilder by throwing Miller's name out there to get him to drop his asking price, or they're trying to age Wilder out just a bit more while letting an extremely quickly developing AJ come just a bit further. Or all of the above. Still a pretty decent fight. Surprised they're not doing it in Vegas, though. But the Barclay family are English I believe, so that would add up.
