Nice hat mind

I keep getting a sneaky feeling that Molina is gonna KO Joshua,not enough to sway me from siding with AJ but I always felt Joshua would deal with Whyte and Martin but this time I can envision Molina tagging him,maybe I should have a little flutter,maybe its the whole planned Klitschko fight got me feeling he might get derailed?

Still my head says Joshua will win comfortably inside the distance,Molina stood up to some heavy shots from Wilder and rocked him badly but he can be stooped early,Joshua might want to get rid of him early to avoid the risk of Molina warming into the fight, or AJ might try and box as he did against Breazeale and break Molina down,I think Molina might last around the 6/7 mark

Me too. I keep thinking about how Lennox Lewis got complacent.

I know it's virtually nailed on for a Joshua win but there's a little feeling that says "watch out".

It's amazing the lengths we go to convince ourselves

Amazing how Hearn made books balance even when paying Martin (reported ) £5m. Yet can't find couple million to entice a decent HW Challenger

Yeah don't forget they were having to try entice a champion to essentially come over and give his belt away (that's what he essentially did). Bigger picture indeed. Now Joshua is the one with the belt, so surely the belt on offer is acting as a bit of an equaliser.

Oh I understand why they paid Martin silly money to get him here and lose his belt. What baffles me is Hearn then only being prepared to pay peanuts and thus delivering crap challengers. Molina probably getting, what, 250k? If you can splash out £5m on Martin at least pay couple million for his second defence. Fair enough a cheap gimmie for first defence but don't take piss

To be fair he was supposed to be fighting Klitschko who then pulled out.

There was a lot of confusion after the Tyson Saga and they just wanted to keep Joshua busy (and make some money) before a big year next year.

So Whyte vs. Chisora is now for a WBC eliminator. That's not going to make either of them mandatory is it? Will that make the winner of this fight face the winner of Wilder and Povetkin/Stiverne?

I did actually predict that one. Lewis had been filming with Nick Cage while Rahman was training in South Africa.

I'm fairly sure it's always been a WBC eliminator which, as I understand it, is not the same as a final eliminator - so I don't think the winner will automatically get a shot at Wilder/Stiverne/Povetkin
