Comments Thread For: Hearn: Joshua Wants WBC Title, Will Face Whoever Has The Belt

[Marchegiano]

Eddie Hearn is saying that he has it both from his lawyers and from Sulaiman that the winner of Fury/Wilder 3 would have to fight Whyte next - if he beats Povetkin. Sulaiman told Sky Sports the same thing.

Eddie also says AJ has told him that whoever ends up with the WBC belt, that's who he wants after Pulev.

Joshua says a lot of ****.

Whyte's one fight, I'm not dis*****g his impending mando, I just hardly see Whyte as a roadblock. Fury will got right through him. Wilder probably gets the KO eventually. Whyte's the weak man of the three.

If Wilder or Whyte end of with the WBC I believe Josh will fight them.

If Fury ends remains they're going to try to build their brand up as much as they can while they avoid him.

Choose one.

The fact is AJ and wilder are both overated but wilder has been consistent in knocking out mfers brutally and lost to a future hof who people on boxing scene are saying would beat ali and vitali etc

Aj lost to a guy with t i t t i e s. A guy who took the fight in what? 2weeks notice? In his US debut to a 30-1 underdog



Yeah youve lost this one. Sit down

How does being from London make you unbiased you cretin.

Wilder has been knocking out bums and has literally beaten one good opponent. Joshua has beaten klitschko, Ruiz, Povetkin, Parker, Whyte

Ortiz isn't as good as anyone on that list. Wilders second best win is Stiverne who we wouldn't even mention if he was on Joshuas resume.

So I haven't lost anything you lil *****, you have no knowledge of boxing and are a complete casual who likely poses for Instagram selfies at Queensbury shows with a tiny clenched fist held up and a plastic pint glass in the other.

I definitely feel Fury isn’t the unbeatable monster that Wilder made him out to be, and part of me honestly feels that fight was a red herring.

Let’s face it, Wilder’s skills have always been so basic to the extent that he routinely lost rounds against C-level fighters like Washington (KO’d in 6 by Charles Martin) and Spzilka (destroyed in 2 rounds by Chisora), before his power bailed him out. Against a large and mobile world-level boxer like Fury who could easily read his telegraphed right hand, Wilder was and is always going to run into disaster.

I truly think we’ll see a better measure of Fury when he fights the more well-rounded fighters in the division, and we can only validate how good his win over Wilder was when Wilder actually decides to fight other top 5 fighters in the division at least.

It's juxtaposition bud.

I don't think Fury's unbeatable in an open ended discussion, but, in this division at this time I reckon so.

What's Joshua got for him but a more basic version of his own **** mixed with some more muscle? At least Wilder has bombs.

Joshua went toe-to-toe with Wlad. Fury danced the twist without ever having to do more than toy with him.


Also, your understanding of Wilder and indeed puncher like Wilder is poor. Everyone lands, there's not a Marciano story out there where Marciano has such a hit and don't be hit back advantage over some bum said bum couldn't land. Why? Cause Marciano's gameplan requires he takes a few. Same with Wilder. It's sword and shield boxing. It's very old and very effective.

Just because you don't like it doesn't mean you should disregard its purpose and uses.

What does Joshua have for Fury? He's not as good a boxer as Wlad and not as pure a puncher as Wilder, so, we're banking on him being a good mix of the two to have the perfect skill set to topple Fury?

Seems like reaching.

Whyte? Basically just Chisora 2.0 and everyone knows it.

Parker? Loves to sit just in range and think about what he's going to do. Easy, boring TF win.

Ruiz? Got danced by an inferior dancer.

Ortiz? Got punched by an inferior puncher

Pov? Probably won't even get passed Whyte

Usyk? Hell maybe, he's just not done enough at HW to give him the benefit of doubt compared to Fury.

The kids don't provide much hope either and even if they did beat him, DD or JJ, etc, vs Fury is years away.



Wilder has that bomb chance.

Maybe Josh's mix of talents can do it

after those two chances are ****ing nil for at least another couple of years.

Too late AJ. Wilder offered you 50 million

Fury would rather strip himself than fight Whyte. His unwillingness to face Whyte goes to show that he is shook. He cannot face Wallin and other tomato cans with no draws and yet claim that there is no money in the Whyte fight.

[Inspired]

After Fury Wilder 2 and Joshua Pulev there is room for negotiation. The Wbo in particular are quite open to a Unification trumping a mandatory challenge. As for Whyte, he has a working relationship with Hearn who I'm sure could sort something out for him to step aside.

It seems like a lot of boxing fans don't want an undisputed fight.

Theres been only two champions with belts since Wlad and Vitali, we have been waiting a decade now and it's still "oh he needs to fight these guys first"

**** all that we should be DEMANDING Unification NOW.

Fury v Wilder won't happen until February 2021, then it'll be 5-6 months until Fury vs Whyte so essentially we are looking at 2022 for a chance of undisputed.

Sorry, its too long, Usyk and white need to be sat down, they can wait.

no, others shouldnt suffer because wilder and TF were fighting bum after bum and now you all choose to demand this superfight.

we had 2 yrs for an undisputed fight to get made..and al haymon didnt allow it because he wanted more money.

let's not kid ourselves...it was al haymon controlling wilder. he thought there would be a superfight on may-pac levels, on showtime/ppv at 50-50 split.
they played every trick in the book inc a fixed fight vs Tyson Fury with the dramatic ending (yes, i believe it was a fix) to force a fight so big that even dazn couldnt afford to pay those $200-300m figures, forcing it on ppv..
and also in doing so, score a major win over dazn, proving that ppv is the only way.

a very convenient aj loss to ruiz, fked al haymon's dream...and sam watson was close to crying after ruiz won. that night was a major loss for the pbc. sam watson looked devastated.

i do want the undisputed fight, but why should fury get it all his way whilst others wait?


let's get it right, whyte already fought aj and lost. he knew his best shot at big money was to beat wilder/TF (and get the £5m for that fight anyway) and then come to an aj fight with a belt and a lot more money
why the fk are you actually blaming him? why was it okay for wilder to fight bums? seriously aj beat whyte in his 15th fight, 5 yrs ago...and wilder couldnt fight him.
