      If Joshua fights Povetkin, and Big Baby wins, then Wilder should fight Big Baby in Brooklyn! I think that will be Wilder's biggest fight possible, and it will sell!

        I think Joshua beats Povetkin easily. If David Price and his piss poor jab can mark up Povetkin, Joshua definitely can. That same left hook that Price hit Povetkin with would be a go to punch for AJ and unlike Price, AJ will be able to finish the job.

            after his last fight
            i think joshua won't brawl with windmill
            he'll play safe
            windmill's skill is crap, but his big right hand will end joshua
            i favor him now

              I can't see Povetkin backing off, it's his last chance to win heavyweight championship.

                But does he hope that, though? AJ was always so confident and now I feel like the suits are getting into his head telling him to wait or do this or that which isn't good for a boxer sometimes. I think he's ready to go. He and Wilder are developed along about the same, but AJ has superior skills to him. Wilder is the wild card, though. He catches you sleeping and you'll be sleeping. Povetkin got floored his last fight and is nearing 40 now. If he has to take it; would be a good confidence builder having one more before Wilder.

                  Joshua would be chasing Bertha down the street singing 'you're the one that I want - ooh, ooh,ooh'.

                  This sounds fishy. Has Hearn been giving Joshua training on how to play the mob ? Povetkin won't 'back down' from a huge payday - not going to happen. If I were the believe this, Joshua would have been talking about an appeal to the WBA to allow a unification ahead of a mando, trying to get public opinion to help with swaying them.

                  I bet Joshua is on the mic as Hearn is too busy finalising things with Povetkin.

                  I hope I'm wrong.

                    Lol I swear this sounds fishy especially with the previous comments I've read. Sounds like some mis-direction here. If Uni trumps Mando then why is he or Anyone else for that matter talking about Povetkin!!! The Wilder fight is next then right! Nope! Did i miss something.
