Strange that the books would post a line out of the blue, unless word has leaked.
We'll see. I hope it is hunter. fornicate Ruiz.

What was Joshua's objection?
Possibly Hunter not established yet as a credible heavyweight contender?

That he'd want more time for his style when he was preparing for Miller.

So AJ wanting/needing more time to prepare is ok.

To me? Yes, it's a substitute opponent.

Also assuming that's true. You'd think they would get his answer before making an offer.

That's true. I still say if it were Wilder, the haters would have a feeding frenzy.

Of course they would. He's fought two top 5 guys in a row and doesn't get credit from them for that.

It does seem like there is a lot of less than stellar communicating going on, so I'm not surprised at that. I fear we're going to see Ruiz, which means I won't be watching.

I would like to think Joshua would prefer to take on a more established opponent or one more appealing to the fans. I'd be disappointed in AJ if he were nervous about taking on Hunter for any reason, but that doesn't sound much like Joshua to me.
I'll keep my powder dry until I know more.

What's up with Ruiz? He went very close with Parker who took AJ the distance. I think Hunter gives Joshua more problems to solve but a win over Ruiz is probably more prestigious.
I'll be watching AJ whoever is in the opposite corner (although not necessarily live on PPV) because his fights are invariably very exciting. Same goes for Wilder fights.

When I say I won't be watching I'm speaking of paying for it. There's nothing intriguing with AJ/Ruiz.

Paying for AJ-Ruiz is like paying for porn; it just doesn't make sense.

The distance of this fight is predominantly dependent on how much punishment Ruiz can absorb. That's pretty much it.

I had interest in the Miller fight and would even at least thought about buying Ortiz. But that's pretty much it.

I know what you mean but look what he managed to do for Stiverne ... I mean getting a totally undeserved title shot rather than a totally deserved demolition
