What is taking so long for Anthony Joshua and Golovkin next fights to be announced?

[boxingking123]

Joshua has known about this April 13th date and Wembley for months and months yet still no opponent or announcement. What is his plan???


Golovkin has not fought since last September vs Canelo and has still not picked a broadcaster... The boxing schedule is taking a long time to be set...

Both need to find bums to fight. Wilder and Fury will probably rematch, so AJ and Hearn need to think of what bum is the easiest to hype up as a credible opponent for AJ next.

Canelo vs Jacobs
BJS vs Andrade ordered by WBO

The Murata money ain't there anymore, his cherry was popped.

So GGG has 3 choices.
1. Wait for Canelo trilogy, semi-retired
2. Fight a credible opponent: which leaves only Charlo at MW for him to fight.
3. Fight another no-name bum to stay busy and KO them in one round.

It's all quite sad really, not many true fighters anymore, just ****** to their pimp promoters

Hearn is quite open about AJ's plans.

Wilder isn't responding to offers. Fury is responding but seems like they won't reach a financial agreement for this time around, plus Fury v Wilder has been ordered and happening. So neither are them are fighting.

Whyte was not happy with the deal Hearn first offered, so he's gone back with a new offer. I'd imagine that's the fight that will be made.

So that's it basically. They're essentially waiting for Whyte to agree.

Jermall has been making loud noises about wanting Golovkin.
What the media is not asking is whether Charlo is making an effort to make the fight happen.

you talk so much illogical s h I t.

Golovkin won against clenelo, he know he can't win on points even if he did again. Clenelo is on pet's.
I wish he would take on Charlo, which is a pos anyway.

Wilder is running and won't stop until he is at least one continent aWAY FROM ANY good fighter. The true Tomato can fighter in the world. Bumsquad.

GGG is very rich and very popular and in demand. He holds no world title so he isn't holding up any top contenders. At this point in his career he can take his own sweet time about picking a broadcaster and an opponent. He is the same as Canelo and Mayweather are or used to be. He fights in May and September. May is 4 months off so there is lots of time for him to give you the information you seek. Since he is not a champion with an obligation to fight a top contender he will probably fight the boxer who's team offers him the largest amount of money just like most prize fighters.

Hearn doesn't want to give Wilder an excuse to run on social media so soon and claim ducking , you know that's what will happen .

[BoxingIsGreat]

Did GGG find anybody to take him?

[Kezzer]

Both are fairly well documented so not really sure what’s the confusion.

Eddie Hearn is open with the options; which are been held up by other events.

Option 1 - wilder. Wilder has been offered 60/40 including rematch. No response as wilder doesn’t want the fight.

Option 2 - Fury. Offered 60/40. Fury wants 50/50 so unlikely short term.

Option 3 - whyte. Offered an amount which Whyte has not yet agreed but is probably most likely outcome given his first two choices seem less likely.

Option 4 - baby Miller as back-up.

Expect to hear something next week I imagine.


Triple G has been having a kid (correct me if wrong) and said he was deciding a network afterwards, again any moment now. Probably has signed already but waiting for the right publicity moment?

That makes no sense. Why would Wilder claim ducking at this point when he is set to fight Fury and has said so since their last fight ended? I could see him still saying they didn't want the fight last year, but at this point he and his team have already let the public know they are after Fury
