After Wilder v AJ, that's the fight to make. Both are supremely talented and have stone hands so would be a purists dream. Neither are big draws though, that fight would barely do 400k.

It's a womderful fight but I think it only make big sense financially as a fight for the undisputed. Let Spence collect belt off Thurman and Crawford collect belt off Porter and do it for all 4 belts

I agree. Its a shame Spence hasn't really kicked on. The Americans are so bad at building a profile.

Some good stuff in there, but the talk about his trainer had me a bit worried there, don't know why but it reminds me a bit of George Groves and Paddy Fitzpatrick.

And whenever they talked about Joshua, Joe Rogan was giving us the Al Haymon party line big time, it was like listening to Johnny Nelson interviewing an Eddie Hearn fighter for a bit there!

AJ v Pulev? Boring.

Hate how poor this division is. In three years time, AJ might have to start fighting the likes of Stipe Miocic, since this division will probably be cleaned out. Unless Wilder beats him of course.

AJ versus Pulev would be terrible, but that's always the case with mandatories. I don't think it's a poor division though, pretty much any combination of Fury, Wilder, AJ and Usyk is about as good as the heavyweight division has been since Lewis retired.

Gassiev and Breidis will step up as well, and then you've got an OK set of fringe contenders. Just need the last of the Klitshko era victims like Pulev to retire out of the way.

Pulev is a good technical boxer but couldn't be more 'made to order' for Joshua if Eddie Hearn could somehow create a mandatory challenger in a lab.

2 PPV's on the same night, if anything summed up the rip off money grabbing merchants promoters are nowadays...! Two good fights but still.
I'll be on Acestream on both those fights.

I haven't bought a PPV since Mayweather V Pac.
