      Imagine losing a such a massive payday. Miller will hang himself if he can find a rope that will take the weight.

        10...Nah, no chance at all.

        If he's offered the same as Miller and walks away from it, he's going to be making a lot less in his next fight, whoever that may be.

          You idiots honestly believe that it'll be Luis Ortiz?

          It'll be Manuel Charr.

            Hearn said they expect 10,000 Brits to fly in to watch Joshua fight. There’s no doubt, every attempt will be made to deliver a decent replacement.

              If MSG is filled with Brits, more of a reason to not give a damn who AJ faces. They aren't going to watch a fight, they're going to watch AJ.

                Well, yeah, I agree they want to watch Joshua, which is why I wrote my initial post the way I did. But that doesn’t mean they want to watch him fight a slouch who gets KOed in the first. An effort will be made to provide the best opponent, under the circumstances.

                  Ortiz should receive what was promised to Miller. That's it.

                    Here we go again, another fighter talking a good fight against Joshua only to actually get the chance and back out with more than 1 excuse. Short training camp and its not enough money. All these pages about Ortiz and nobody is talking about 4 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP BELTS. 4 belts, 6.5 million and Ortiz dont even need to dig his passport out seeing as he is based in the US anyway.

                    Im ready im ready im ready im ready, oh ****, im not ready.

                      Show proof Ortiz asked for $10 million, sounds like Hearns usual tricks to duck a fighter.
