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

[Madison Boxing]

I've got no problem with this. Most fighters usually follow the pattern of one hard opponent and then one easier opponent. Fights gonna happen in 2018 so people need to calm down and be patient

[b00g13man]

So he definitely doesn't want to make it AJ's next fight? Glad he's finally admitted it.

Uhhhhh just make the fight quit stalling. Your fighter was exposed and you know it. Miller, Povetkin, Fury or Wilder would beat AJ. AJ has NO POWER against good competition because they're not there to be hit.

He said it will happen in 2018 if wilder wants it

It’s jus the American admins on here spinning an agenda with mis leading title

Fake news

Eddie can just pay off the ref again to whatever style is best for AJ. In fact the one last night will be perfect for the Miller fight.

Yes, ref seemed to have instructions to prevent a fight breaking out at all costs.

Here we go again with the duck duck goose game, AJ looked like an Ameture, boring and couldn’t take out a guy Wilder would of knocked out, I fell asleep on the fight, Hearn is going to continue to milk his cow

Fake news

Typical Trump fanatic with that fake news bs by blindly following every word your candidate is saying and then calling the truth fake news. Hasn't Wilder been calling out Joshua for the past year and a half? You're basing your argument on Hearn's "if Wilder wants it next comment." ****** Trumptard.

Hearn words & actions are perfectly summarized in the,"Can we get away....." (from fighting Wilder) phrase. Hearn would like nothing more than to monopolize British boxing with his remote controlled robot.....the power & money he has is intoxicating for him and Joshua to possess (AJ ALREADY has his sights set on building a museum honoring himself for all his adoring fans) and he doesnt want to give it up because of some skinny beanpole that doesnt bend from the wind of his every command - its VERY uncomfortable & FRUSTRATING for both em'. Joshua showed it in the ring when being interviewed after the Parker fight (when he was called back by the interviewer to answer "another" question about Wilder.....

"Fight this guy instead,"..."take this amount of money"....."I should promote you"....."your mngmt 'Shelly' is lying".....everything and anything to discourage & derail Wilder from getting to his PRIZED POSSESSION.......This historical boxing narrative is really cool to see played out, especially with Fast (Slick) Eddie actually fooling himself into believing he's not anxious or worried that his Money Empire could topple over with one punch.....

The running from Wilder most likely began when Joshua expressed his doubts experientially wise to Hearn at an intimate moment (probably over tea). Hearn never forgot the message. ......NO SYMPATHY HERE, Joshua now has 4 belts, he's NOT ALLOWED to coast anymore, he MUST fight the best and the BEST right now is Deontay Wilder......Joshua will be forced to "act" a lot more now - by not showing his nervous frustration when he's asked to speak on fighting Wilder - he has to be calm when speaking on fighting Wilder ONLY (NOT Fury, PEDveton, Whyte etc.,included in the discussion) - not with overdoing the silly smiling & laughing - just plain museum inherited tough talk......

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.

"........FRUSTRATING for both of em'......" my bad
