If Anthony Joshua got ethered, what would be Eddie Hearn's fallback plan?

If AJ was taken out of the equation, who would Hearn push as his star attraction in the UK? In the USA? Worldwide?

Hearn still has Kell Brook at 154, Amir Khan for the next little while, Tony Bellew for a few fights, Callum Smith, and the basically top talents from the 2016 GB Olympics team (Kelly, Buatsi, Okolie, Cordina, etc).

He'd still be the promoter best positioned to rule the UK, with a nice clutch of fighters he could take worldwide.

Is Dubois in his stable or nah? That would be his only come back

[rolshans]

He's got a decent stable of UK fighters, so he'd be fine. Besides Brook and Khan, Whyte, Okolie, and Katie Taylor seem to be getting pushed by Matchroom.

The US is a different story.

AJ has never been a game changer in the US anyway, so the question isn't all that relevant. But I'd think he'd try to do what he's done in the UK. Sign a bunch of no-name Olympians and hope that one of them breaks out.

Danny Jacobs

[Madison Boxing]

the young kid joshua buatsi will be a superstar soon.

[Eddy Current]

Katie Taylor

He's got some good prospects. Buatsi, Kelly, Okolie, Ritson.

A couple of those guys would definitely have to emerge. Hearn signed nice talent from the 2016 class.

Bellew is probably a fight or two from calling it a career.

Brook he could push for a bit, but doubt it lasts long. Same for Khan.

If Andrade beats BJS, then he would have two factors at the MW division.

[Randall Cunning]

The whole stable is in transition. Stal***** are coming to their last few fights, prospects are entering sink or swim time. Apart from whats been mentioned Anthony Sims Jr looked good, all be it against limited opposition.
