    So you like Miller more? Cool, let it be at that. Now you are complaining about who has earned a shot or not. You rate those equally or Miller more so even if we get that fight then there shouldn't be many complaints.

      It's a big fight. If 2 or 3 want to go another way, then fight 4.

      This isn't a mandatory (although maybe they'll now push for it to be made one) so he could have fought a keep warm fight waiting for the winner of Fury v Wilder.

      It's his 23rd fight. And people are disappointed that he's only fighting a guy ranked 1 by the WBC and WBO and 4 by Ring and TBRB.

      Wilder's 23rd fight was in a half empty gymnasium. Joshua is doing just fine!

        Why not though? Miller doesn't deserve a title shot and has zero momentum coming off a win over unknown Bogdan Dinu in an empty arena in Kansas.

          Why not what? Miller doesn't deserve a title shot? Cool, but you agree he is on Whyte's level, if not better right? So to you it is the better match up, right?

          And this fight makes a lot of sense. Allows Joshua to make his US debut at MSG against a New Yorker. Solid fight to me.

            Why not complain? Eddie can't even make Brook vs Khan and Joshua vs Whyte II. Those would have been money makers for him.

              Him not making Joshua/Whyte II really a bad thing if he makes another fight with an opponent on the level of Whyte?

                Too greedy even by boxing promoter standards...


                “boxing promoter standards”, is than an oxymoron I wonder?

                  So your complaint is Eddie isn't making enough money?

                  You don't want him making a better match up with Miller according to you or him to support Khan's decision in going for a better legacy fight attempting to obtain a title like he has said.

                    I'm saying Eddie can't make the fights that would benefit his business the most even when the two fighters are a part of his stable. That's not good.

                      Lol you're more worried about Eddie's wallet than seeing better boxing or the what's right for the fighters.

                      Not to mention you haven't considered the possible rewards of easing AJ into the American market. Also acting like Eddie should offer Khan ****** money to make it unprofitable to fight Brook, probably making a pretty penny co-promoting the Crawford fight anyway. Maybe he should hire you as you seem to know more about his business and care more about his money than him.
