The best solution : Joshua-Wilder and Usyk-Whyte on Wembley, April 2019

I think it would be the best solution for boxing. Hearn is capable to do it (if he wants). What do you think ?
I suppose Whyte will beat Chisora, of course.

Would be a good card but will the money be there to pay Joshua, Wilder, Whyte AND Usyk?
I wonder whether Whyte vs Usyk would be a main event? Interested to see what everyone else thinks.

I like it. Just as easily could be AJ v Fury.

sounds good but it is most likely going to be wilder vs fury 2 and Joshua vs whyte 2 which both are very good fights and if the winners of them 2 fight that would be perfect. also usyk will probably feature on the aj undercard but I don't think he is going to rush into fighting someone in the top 5 yet

I agree 100% except if Chisora wins trade him with Whyte, although I don't see that happening. Sound post!

Makes sense.

Hearn would have Usyk - Whyte as its own PPV main event.

AJ should not be facing Chisora in April under any rational circumstances.

I think that money would not be a problem. I can imagine much more than 100 mill. in the game.
So, Joshua 51 %, Wilder 35 %, Usyk 7 %, Whyte 7%.....Not so bad..............

I pray we get a card with two proper headline fights like this, obviously one being bigger than the other significantly, but I don’t fancy it happening for a long time. Hearn promises plenty but doesn’t deliver. This card tonight is proof.
I’d really like to know the budget for his Fight Night cards on Sky, because I can’t gauge how this is our money’s worth of boxing. Working class people are asked to pay about 60 quid a month for Sky Sports.

Assuming the Fury/Wilder rematch happens, I like this:
AJ v. Whyte/Chisora Winner (Whyte way more likely)
Ortiz v. Miller (Pick 'em)

Too right he would. If he made Whyte v Parker ppv then he'll have no qualms making Whyte v Usyk ppv

The great thing about those two fights for Hearn would be that, Whyte wouldn’t demand much of a pay check in comparison to Fury or Wilder.
At the same time, Miller and Ortiz couldn’t really command an outrageous fee.
I’d like these two fights to go down alongside possibly Lomachenko coming to the UK to fight Luke Campbell. I don’t think he wins, but I prefer that fight to Crolla/Loma. Even better would be Crolla/Campbell.
The fans deserve it.

Why would Whyte risk a guaranteed title shot and more money facing Joshua?

Whyte is a headliner now.

Not only that. He's ppv now in the UK.
No way Hearn puts fights like this on a Co main. 2 separate ppvs for sure
