Comments Thread For: Hearn: As it Stands, Whyte is Frontrunner To Fight Joshua

[Lopez_Boxing]

The winner of Whyte/Chisora 2 was always getting the April fight with AJ. Same promoter keeps the money in house and boxing is a business after all.
Careful though Eddie. You better get either Fury or Wilder after that as even the most loyal AJ fan wants unification fights rather than repeats.

Yeah this isn't a shocker.

The truth is Whyte v Joshua 2 isn't the worst fight out there but unlike Wilder v Fury 2 we feel we already know the result.

[Jab jab boom]

Joshua barely has over 20 pro fights and he's already recycling an opponent that he ko'd in 7? That's lame af. I'd rather see wilder, Fury, Ortiz, hell even Miller ahead of this rematch.

The April 13 opponent for AJ... Brimming with suspense!!

Aj has had this planned all along, then when Wilder fury ended in a draw him & Hearn knew AJ just got handed a duck for eternity pass.

They both suddenly started acting like they badly want the fight(no coincidence that they never acted that way when the fight was being offered on a silver platter when wilder was willing to accept peanuts),because they knew that if they made it look like they suddenly badly wanted the fight, that they can then act as if their the ones being ducked afterwards when they now duck for the next 2 yrs due to the pathetic claim that "we tried but we eternally got mandatories to face doe".

Hearn/Aj are so transparent its pathetic,all one has to do is listen to their statements,they've been telling us for the longest that their plan was to duck all along & face bums like ***** whyte instead of actual challenges like ortiz/ fatazz baby.

What do you see happening in an Ortiz Joshua fight? Ortiz is a southpaw and will see right hands. He has excellent reach as well. How do you see it playing out (in boxing speak not in general like you did above). I can see that fight being tactical with both fighters tasting the canvas.

The difference in that fight is sure to be AJ's inside game. Just like how Ortiz didn't Wilder's right from the inside, I see AJ sneaking an uppercut and getting him out of there, especially when Ortiz is fatigued.

Was always the plan!

AJ next 2 fights:
vs Whyte
vs Big Baby Miller USA Debut at MSG

Whyte deserves his shot, he’s beat some decent opponents since the Joshua loss, but as much as I like him and Whyte has improved, I just think Joshua has his number and the result will be pretty similar to the first fight.

I see Whyte, Miller and then either Pulev or Usyk for Joshua in 2019.

Fury v Wilder rematch in the meantime, with the winner taking on Breazeale for the WBC mando.

Hopefully the last men standing meet in 2020... and hopefully it’s not Pulev v Breazeale 😀

Spoken like a true AJ apologist,hopfully AJ gets kod by ***** Whyte so he can reap what he sowed.

Ignorant of what?

Deyonce has admitted he does not want to fight Joshua.

No, no he didn’t and you can repeat it as often as possible and it still doesn’t make it true. Just stop
