The promoter Eddie Hearn now denied the reports that Anthony Joshua Combatra Martin Bakole or Deontay Wilder then. Hearn said he was “Not had a conversation About Joshua, 35, fighting Bakole afterwards.
The way Hearn said, you might say that he will never let AJ near Bakole in a million years and will make him end what remains of his shipwrecked career. Joshua made a fortune with the meticulous twinning that Hearn made for him for him.
No Bakole, said Hearn
It is logical that Joshua (28-4, 25 KB) does not fight on the dangerous Bakole with direct elimination (21-1, 16 ko) because his chances of winning would be zero.
Bakole looked like Sonny Liston With the way he sent the best American heavyweight, Jared Anderson, in five laps on August 3 in Los Angeles. He threw short punches without liquidation, and that’s all it took Ko Jared. Where does Bakole fight this power?
Joshua was cleaned in five rounds during his last fight by the IBF heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois, on September 21, which ruined Hearn’s Four -fighting reconstruction job He had done with him in a futile attempt to restore him in the form of a vintage factory he had when he became pro in 2013.
Hearn has said nothing about investment in another reconstruction work for AJ, so it seems that he will focus on the best -paying combat for Joshua. At this point, it would be Deontay Wilder, 39 years old.
Joshua can probably still win this fight as long as the former heavyweight champion of 6’7 ″ Deontay does not puncture his right hand to use it against him. If Wilder lands this punch, AJ will be done for the night, no matter what a tour.
Hearn’s denial
“The last one that someone sent me on Saturday, saying,” Anthony Joshua against Martin Bakole is finished, signed. We did not have a conversation on this fight, “said Eddie Hearn to Match Boxing, denying the information that the former heavyweight champion Joshua then faces the dangerous Puncher Bakole.
“I do not exclude him, by the way, but it is never even a conversation,” continued Hearn. “So I don’t know where it comes from.
“I saw one last night,” Wilder-Joshua is made for June 7 “. I did not have a conversation on this fight. I spoke to AJ for the first time yesterday in a few weeks, and it is actually very good. »»
