    Hunter would beat Ruiz but this fight makes sense. There'll be a lot of action.

        ORTIZ should get the fight. He has earned it. He won't though because he has legit shot at beating JOSHUA.

          Joshua fighting another stiff, what a surprise!!!!! If he's not fighting a named fighter at the twilight of their career he's fighting soft punching small fighters. Can we now agree Joshua is NOT to be considered the best heavyweight anymore. What a joke!!

              When your offered a chance at 3 world titles and being offered a purse far bigger than your largest to date, you take the damn fight. No two ways about it. When opportunity strikes - go grab that.
              Exactly. He turned down millions, after having said he'd fight AJ for nothing and was ready. And his promoter *****es about how the offer was an insult. Pleeese.

                You should give up your day job and become a boxing promoter because with you, if you want something, you just know it will come to pass. Get a license. Show us all how it's done.

                  Was looking at the rankings & here's all the US guys.

                  Kownacki is possible I suppose.

                  Trevor Bryan could be in the running in spite of Don King's silly ass remarks.

                  Fres Oquendo don't wanna fight nobody as is.

                  Andy Ruiz is in the running.

                  Michael Hunter is in the running.

                  Luis Ortiz was/is in the running.

                  Tyrone Sprong I kinda dig as an option cuz I'm a fan, but he had a bad performance last time out so I could see him in or out of the running.

                  Bryant Jennings he just took an L, but he's still ranked, but the KO loss isn't a good look so I doubt he's in the running.

                  So I'd think Bryan & Kownacki would be the most likely unnamed guys.

                  It was first down to 6 names, Luis Ortiz, Andy Ruiz, Michael Hunter, Manuel Charr, Agit Kabayel and Trevor Bryan but now...

                  The final four guys are Andy Ruiz, Michael Hunter, Trevor Bryan and Manuel Charr.

                    I think Ruiz beats Hunter pretty one sided.

                    Ruiz is a solid fighter, good chin, fast hands, good workrate.

                      Lemme see as of right now.
                      - Kownacki said he wasn't ready
                      - Ortis priced himself out
                      It's boiling down to:
                      - Trevor Bryan (if hearn jr wanna learn something from big don)
                      - Mike Hunter (nobody knows him)
                      - Andy Ruiz (at least he's funny)
                      I think it gonna be poor Andy with a good payday and a good whuppin too.
