Definitely, or they’ll put a price on it that will simply make it unreasonable.

And then when AJ doesn’t fight them, they’ll claim he ducked them haha

Bakole will take the fight. Apparently he knocked out both Joshua and Whyte at the same time in sparring.

Whyte’s whole career has been a massive fraud.

Goes out to Portugal 12 weeks before fights, takes whatever drugs he wants & then with 6 weeks to go they announce an opponent & begin drug testing.

The only problem is he’s that thick he’s still messed up his cycle twice.

I’ve never known a luckier fighter. Had a promoter that stood by him when he tested positive, had favourable judging in the first Chisora fight, a knockdown against Parker that wasn’t a knockdown that made the difference, a positive drug test before the Rivas fight & a referee working for him in the Chisora fight.

I hope we never see or hear from his again but I know that won’t be the case.

Will AJ want to fight anyone though? Whyte gave decent money for low risk, no one else will come close.

I imagine you will hear Hearn mentioning him as a potential replacement with zero chance of actually offering him the fight, way too dangerous if that Wilder fight and mega payday is still on the cards.

AJ will want to fight. Eddie will be blowing at least a million if the bill doesn't go ahead.

DAZN may be insisting on a PPV still so maybe it will be a half decent opponent.

It will be hard to find anyone, as the entire WBC top 15 are unavailable.

What happened to Eddie always having a reserve fighter on standby for AJ? Am sure that’s how Takam got the fight, when Pulev pulled out at fairly late notice?

That's right. He has plenty of other heavyweights on the bill, it's just a question of making a fight that pleases everyone concerned.

Ordinarily it would be a given that Joshua would fight a replacement but with this Wilder fight in the pipeline, I'm saying he pulls out

I thought the late addition of chisora v Washington was bit odd.

No idea what's going on now

Heavyweight boxing is truly dire atm

And everyone who watches ppv on any platform is to blame !!!!

Would you be happy with AJ-Del as a replacement main event?

Perhaps Conor Benn could lend Whyte his 270 pages of

Seems to have worked for Conor.

Whyte 3 Benn 2 is the score-line from my understanding. Happy to be corrected.

2 for Fury also.

I'd have more respect for the cheats if they held their hands up and admitted it.
