Not a good look but the trend is continuing that AJ will fight anyone, anywhere...provided it's in the UK.

Not interested in that fight whatsoever to begin with. Joshua should go his own way and fight real elite SUPER HEAVYWEIGHTS. Rather than waste time on irrelevant, small, tiny and midget heavyweights the size of little insects that he could just step on and squash like a little bug. Good thing for Povetkin's health if he avoids fighting big monstrous Joshua.
World title belts don't really mean much. Who one beats is more important than what belt or how many belts one owns.

I was just gonna post that I wonder what happens if they lose the bid. It’s better financially for Povetkin to just accept the fight in England rather than have Joshua dump the belt and have Povetkin fighting someone else for relative peanuts.
Joshua doesn’t really need the wba strap , especially if he can grab the wbc off wilder.

I find it funny Hearn mentions Russia's drug policy. Considering the fact that the WBA is now using the same policy as the wbc?
Are they afraid of Povetkins past or do they themselves have something to hide

I wouldn't announce in advance that you will vacate if Povetkin wins the purse bid. That gives Team Povetkin the ability to bid a high number (that they will not have to actually pay) and strip a belt off of Joshua. Makes it pretty easy for Povetkin to fight for the vacant WBA title. Wait... I thought Charr was fighting Oquendo for the WBA title. Wait... how many WBA belts are there?

Shades of Riddick Bowe and the WBC. The WBA belt that Joshua owns is the WBA SuperHW title. Charr somehow has the WBC HW title. Alphabet soup anyone?

Hearn is a total cùnt! Already making excuses because he knows there's a fair chance he'll be outbid! Was all well and good to bring Pov over for Price! Kind of makes any excuse he wants to spin completetly moot! Guy is a total ball bag! I like AJ as a fighter but the net is closing in and he's been railroaded in to a corner. They need to fight a proper contender now and Hearn is bricking it! I'm not saying AJ loses but there's a greater chance of him losing than there was before and that makes Hearn shite himself!

I don’t actually think Joshua has much to worry about in Russia, I think he dispatches Povetkin in short order. Joshua is all wrong for Povetkin.

I don't think AJ wants to fight Povetkin for some reason, unless he gets him in the UK, however, he can get the same ref or one similar to keep Povetkin away, and he has no chance. It will be AJ/Parker or Wlad/Povetkin all over again.
Like I said about a year ago, the belts are important to team Joshua when its convenient, or want them to be important. Like Lackeos pointed out, it is stupid for them to announce that they will drop a belt if they lose a purse bid.

Boxing fans acting like it's meant to be some impressive accomplishment to kill an ant by stepping on it. Povetkin should drop his fat ass back down to cruiser weight / light heavyweight and let the real SUPER HEAVYWEIGHTS fight among each other. There's nothing impressive what so ever about Joshua, or someone his size defeating Povetkin. If anything, Joshua should literally be publicly disgraced if he can't literally inflict permanent health damage upon a relative midget / insect like Povetkin inside 3 - 6 rounds. Anything short of an ABSOLUTE stomping like a bug will have to be deemed as utterly disgraceful and shameful in behalf of Joshua. Winning isn't enough! Winning with 0 difficulties whilst inflicting permanent damage is the bare minimum and Joshua would still not deserve any credit for such an accomplishment. No more than a human stepping on an ant and killing an ant.
Joshua should focus his energy on fighting elite opponents his own size instead. Rather than bothering with little midgets and and atomic sized bugs like Povetkin.

Exactly!
As predictable as the answer to 1+1. Or the outcome of a fight between an ant and a human being = human steps on the ant nearly 100% of the time and kills the ant.
If you are shorter than 6 foot 4 inches and lighter than 240 pounds of functional muscles, then you have less than 10% of a chance at beating any of the modern ELITE SUPER HEAVYWEIGHTS. Simple as that! This is just a matter of fact. Size, physical strength and punching power = the main attributes required in the modern heavyweight division.
Not only Anthony Joshua, but Lennox Lewis, Wladimir Klitschko, Vitali Klitschko and Tyson Fury are all wrong for any 'small' heavyweight like Alexander Povetkin or David Haye that is shorter than 6 foot 4 inches in height and lighter than 240 pounds of functional weight.

It certainly smells of something. IMO. Worse than politicians.
