Comments Thread For: Hearn: Can We Get Away With One More Before Wilder? Probably

[Bronx2245]

That's why Miller so likely (assuming he gets by Duhaupas, which he should do, but you never know).

Hearn gets a double-dip out of Joshua/Miller while also expanding Joshua's image in the US (assuming Joshua beats Miller, which he should do, but.....).

Can't see anything else happening.

Yep! If Hearn does Joshua vs. Miller, and Whyte vs. Povetkin, what do you suggest that Wilder do next? Kownacki in Brooklyn?

I hope people realize the old Klitschko would beat Parker unanimously anytime they would fight. Parker is a good boxer but was never great. How about Parker vs Ortiz next or Ortiz against Fury? Ortiz fury Joshua Wilder are the top names in the division at the moment. Miller Parker Whyte breazeale are fish for thoes sharks

With Povetkin having the mandatory shot against Joshua, I can't see Povetkin accepting a fight with Whyte though.

Meantime Whyte's position as No.1 ranked in the WBC makes it more likely that at some point Wilder v Whyte will be mandated. Can only imagine Hearn floated Whyte v Povetkin to get under Wilder's skin, and that instead Povetkin waits it out till he gets his mandatory against Joshua, with Hearn lobbying the WBC to mandate Whyte v Wilder.

Else indeed, Wilder left with someone like Breazeale (No.2 WBC).

Sir, the running from Wilder started in 2014. But please do not take my word for it. https://********/WAPdTCIpx0M?t=4m36s

WOW! Thanks for that link, right out of daddy Barry (Honest) Hearns OWN mouth regarding AJ INTENTIONALLY AVOIDING Wilder,"You may want to DUCK Deontay Wilder for a little bit - he's STRONG," ......the ONLY ONE he's ENCOURAGED & ADVISED to DUCK in the ENTIRE interview...LOL!!....The younger Hearn is absolutely ON BOARD with encouraging this DUCKING EVASION tactic, and it seems to be working quite well with those who can't wait for that museum to go up.......SHOUT it from the ROOFTOPS!!!...LOL!...Team Hearns "STRATEGY" is to "DUCK" Deontay Wilder "FOR A LITTLE BIT".....which in Team Hearn language is approximately THREE/FOUR years and COUNTING......

lol, did you just include Miller in that list as 'not there to be hit ?'.

All of the boxers you list have different styles. Miller is probably the one most made for AJ as he is indeed there to be hit, and would make AJ look great as it would just be a question of how much Miller could take - think Whyte/Browne.

The other three are different. Parker stayed on the back foot for pretty much the entire fight, occasionally jumping in to mix it up, enticing Joshua to commit so he could counter, but Joshua didn't oblige. Hence the rather boring fight as Joshua kept it under control for the entire 12.

Wilder wouldn't stay on the back foot and would go hunting, so it would be Joshua doing the countering. Completely different fight from Parker. If anything Joshua showed he could keep it under control vs Parker, and that would bode well against Wilder. Wilder makes a lot of mistakes and a cool head would maintain the defence while capitalising on the defensive mistakes Wilder makes, which are many.

Povetkin would be closer to a Parker fight as he fights in a similar way. I think Povetkin has declined though and is more open to getting hit than Parker (less movement), so Joshua will likely get the hits on Povetkin that he wasn't able to land on Parker.

Fury - dunno. Hard to call any Fury fight as he's so whacky, and no idea what shape he comes back in either.

Someone with some common sense, agree with everything you've said.

An overly muscular African male is taken from Africa by an entitled, wealthy white man and put to work...made to fight mandingo style for his financial independence....

Sounds sadly familiar.

So your saying Joshua was taken from Africa? Last I heard he was living freely in England and voluntarily signed with Hearn because it was his best financial option and he is now a huge star making 8 figure paydays, if thats slavery where do I sign up? The slave trade ended hundreds of years ago and most white people in America came to America long after the slave trade ended and therefore dont even have relatives who participated. My family came through Ellis Island in the early 1900's and lived in slums and were treated like dirt and worked hard to make it in America. I cant believe in this day and age there are still people who live as free americans like everyone else and hold every whote person accountable for the actions of a few plantation owners from the south who have been dead for hundreds of years, its actually sad when you think about it. Stop with the victim mentality and maybe you will prosper like everyone else who lives in America. We all have the same opportunities. I was dirt poor my whole life abd worked hard and opened a successful business. I never blamed anyone for being poor thats just how most people are regardless of race but again everyone has the same opportunities
