    Comments Thread For: Warrington: Xu Fight Will Be More Exciting Than Stevenson, Russell

    IBF featherweight champion Josh Warrington expects a full blown war when he collides in the ring with WBA "regular" champion Xu Can. Because of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, there is no set date for the fight. The two sides have reached an agreement on the terms, with the contest taking place at Emerald Headingley Stadium this summer - if events in the UK are allowed to move forward by then.

    Translation:

    I can beat this Can. But Shakur Stevenson and Gary Russell Jr would whoop my ass.

      Not much about China I like nowadays. But I do like this Xu Can. He will teach the division something and JW is first among title holders to learn that lesson. As for a GRJ VS SHAKIRA matchup, I couldn't imagine a more boring fight. You definitely won't need compubox to count the punches. No matter how much I want to vomit thinking about China and it's sick eating habits mucho respect goes out to Xu Can!

        Stevenson and especially Russell will eat Warrington up.

          This fight should be fun to watch. Both Warrington and Xu throw Alot of punches and have great conditioning.
          Sucks that neither has much power but atleast we'll get a war.

            I like Warrington , tip my hat to him if he takes this fight
            There will be much fireworks in that fight
            Maybe then we can get a fight with the other two
            This of course if he gets by Can
            Wouldn’t mind either guy fighting Stevenson or Russell
            Maybe a mini tourney would be needed , surely that would bring much excitement

              He goes running to Hearn knowing all the time, Hearn protects his investments. Hearn won't risk losing money, the only way those fights get made is he gets outbid and somebody else pays to get Josh throttled.

                This is going to be an amazing fight, inside fighting, punches been thrown in bunches. If Can comes to throw then this fight can be a potential brilliant fight for the fans.

                  Couldnt think of a more action packed matchup. Unless it's a Berchelt vs Valdez or something along those lines. Unfortunately thats all we can do is imagine it right now. Still a lot to look forward to.

                    Can't really argue with Josh here. Not at all convinced he'd beat Stevenson - though Josh has made a real habit of upsetting the odds and I think his relentlessness might unnerve young Shakur - and I'm pretty sure GRJ beats him. But yeah Josh vs Xu will beat either in terms of raw entertainment value.
