Joshua Vs Hrgovic is the best we can hope for. Joshua Vs Chisora/McKean are possible but not interesting alternatives. Not sure who else there is that Matchroom would be able to bring in on short notice. Kabayel or Bakole? Anything else is a waste of an event and might aswell cancel the main event entirely.
No way they would risk Hrgovic
Agreed.
I`d have Hrgovic beating Joshua quite handily.

I'd guess this was known about for a few weeks as there has been virtually no hype for the fight.

No reason why Hrgovic or McKean can't step in, there's a chance of this being a blessing

Presuming eddie needs the PPV to happen sill
AJ-McKean
Hrgovic-Chisora
Feels an easier sell than wheeling out Del for Joshua. Not by much admittedly. At least McKean has that unbeaten 'What if?' facade. Still pish though.

Any ideas what Whyte popped for?
Cant see AJ fighting. We saw what happened last time the opponent got swapped out.

Is he Tony's mate? Innocent obviously
Re: Anthony Joshua vs. Dillian Whyte II | DAZN PPV - OFF
I swear this is all I ever see of Wallin. Trying to put his name out there to fight big names but face nobodies once or twice a year in the meantime.
Literally.
Just pimping himself out to the big names. Probably wants big money whilst fighting crap himself.
Don’t know why he aligned himself with Salita.
Glad he’s out of our top #15 list.

AJ vs chisora
Other than it being a terrible fight, has there ever been a fight between a boxer and his manager/management company before? Is that a conflict of interest?

According to Fury's team there is no one else in the heavyweight division, so Joshua will need to find a MMA fighter with no boxing experience to fight instead.

Without a ranked contender, what this fight needs is a novelty.
