I think AJ knocks out otto. And coming off 2 usyk fights his southpaw game should be decent.

-IF AJ is fighting wilder after this it seems like a silly preperation.
-Not a bad prep for fury though who would spend a lot of time southpaw vs AJ...
-Very very very different to zhang, but still southpaw so i gues not terrible for that.

Could just be they see it as a good fight in its own right. which is fair enough given the dire state of the division and Otto coming off a carrer best win.

I think AJ resurgence will continue and he'll stop him early.

Wallin's pretty poor, but he's Salita's boy, so I should support him.

Chisora will fight Zhang. If DDD's on the bill, he'll fight Ngannou or someone with a padded record and little to no chance of winning..

I get it. But Usyk is a Cruiserweight. And Gassiev weighed 216 though thats small today. And Wallin gave Fury a difficult fight

Del beat his ex up, so it wouldn't bother me. Does that sound harsh?

Wallin would appear to be a good opponent choice for Joshua. He doesn't have the power to trigger the gun shyness recently evident in Joshua and may be a good steppingstone for where he is current at.

The only thing that might make Joshua reluctant to pull the trigger is, if he were to lose, it is probably just about curtains for him.

Is it really likely that the 23rd will become a heavyweight bonanza???

I can't see it, unless there has been serious work going on behind the scenes, 6 week won't be enough for any of them to get in shape

wallin is tricky and seems to take a shot pretty well. sneaky straight shots. if aj stopped him it would be a good result. even just a wide decision with no serious issues tops what fury did

Yeah, but not in a kinky way, more a proven guilty in court way.

yeah, Dereck a nonce. And posh boy from Zimbabwe. He came from money in Rhodesia, privately educated. His street person persona is a myth. He's a woman beating posh turd. Hence the friendship with Farage and awful behaviours.

Isn’t FW promoting the 23rd card?
nope

saudi calls the shots
They call the shots but ego and contractual commitments come into it. AJ has an exclusive deal with DAZN. He also has an exclusive deal with Eddie who’d be ant a piece of the action. Frank will want the show on BT no doubt and whilst it may be the right thing to do exposure wise I can’t see Eddie being happy with it.

Will be interesting to see what happens.
I’m not buying this. FW announced something exciting would be happening on the 23rd on talkSPORT.

I’ll be amazed if egos and TV channels are put aside and FW is involved in any AJ show.

Any rumours who Bakole and Dubois will be against? Hopefully they'll be facing each other as a result of this event, similar to AJ/Wilder. Dubois vs Wardley for the British/Commonwealth would be good. I'd like to see Bakole obliterate Miller. Only options for Bakole that would be a step up from Takam would be one of the Top Rank guys (Ajagba/Sanchez/Makhmudov).

Talk of Dubois/Miller. Weirdly I like the fight.
