Very unlikely, but as a Philadelphian and big
Dawejko fan that could be interesting. Interesting due to the Dawejko/Joshua sparring TKO rumors and it being an AJ tune up and Dawejko with 5 straight wins including 2 impressive best downs of a formidable Colby Madison

I would retire if I was him and meanwhile keep talking about 100M dollar fights and stuff, a bit like Lennox Lewis, he also knew that he wasn't any good, but just act like it and there will allways be a bunch of idiots who will also act, or even think, you're a somebody.
And if someone actually offers a 100M then great, just take it and give it away on all the hookers you once enjoyed.

No, that's not how it works.
You act like you are somebody and not even the idiots have any use for you.

Wallin has been elevated to #2 in the just released IBF rankings. Importantly, this means that if there is an immediate Fury-Usyk rematch, Wallin is in the box seat to fight Hrgovic for the vacant title and means there is no good reason why Joshua shouldn't fight Wilder next. But I reckon Eddie will come up with one.

Malik Scott says Joshua is no longer interested in fighting Wilder and the new name being mentioned for Wilder is Makhmudov.
The WBC have a convention in November. Let's hope they order something other than just red wine.

It seems the WBC did some Joshua elevating, and Ruiz sinking to try and get Wilder v Joshua. However, as that's not happening, it now looks like #3 ranked Big Makh will be the one for Wilder to face.
I think Wilder would much prefer the wee, fat Mexican guy.

Arslanbek Makhmudov would obliterate WIlder if they shared the ring. Haymon won't allow that.

Very true. That's why his record is filled with wins over top draw opponents in their prime.

If Wilder don't fight AJ until March/April and Ruiz is pricing himself out, who's in the PBC stable for him to fight? Sanchez? Charles Martin? Ortiz III?
