Joshua to Drop WBO belt.
Joshua to Drop WBO belt.
Talks for step aside money for Usyk have fallen apart, with Usyk wanting title shot. Match room now lobbying Wbo to get Chisora pushed up rankings for title shot , with AJ to fight winner Sept.

If the wbo moves Chisora up from 14 to 2 the might as well rename the wbo to Hearn boxing organization

Re: Joshua to Drop WBO belt.
This is what a lot of people predicted, he'll beat Pulev and then reunify vs Usyk
Also Joe Parker is number 2 in the WBO I think, he is with Eddeh too so if I were him I'd be pissed if Eddeh were lobbying for Chisora to get the fight instead of him. Maybe the thought of a potential Parker vs AJ rematch scares Ed lol.

Re: Joshua to Drop WBO belt.
Wasn’t there threads created a few months ago discussing this very topic?
I seem to recall prior to AJ’s loss to Ruiz Jr, Eddie Hearn suggesting that Joshua will very likely vacate his WBO strap, with fellow Matchroom stablemate Oleksandr Usyk vying for the vacant title, sine they wanted to keep the belt in-house.
AJ was always more likely to fulfil his IBF mandatory defence obligations prior to the WBO’s.
So this is all old news.

But yes that was bad too
Re: Joshua to Drop WBO belt.
Chisora is #9 if he can get him pushed up to #6. He will get the fight
2-Parker fighting in Feb
3- Kownacki fighting in mar
4-Ruiz ?? Rest??
5- Dubios fighting in April.
Hearn could have Usyk v Parker but that fight makes Zero $$$.
Maybe Parker v Whyte on Aj v Usyk undercard

No need to worry about Ruiz fighting in 2020.

The WBA just need to slip Chris Lovejoy into a title fight and that will top them all
