Promoter Eddie Hearn says that the next fight of Anthony Joshua in November or December will reveal how much he left physically in his career. Hearn expects the former two-time heavyweight champion Joshua (28-4, 25 KO) to fight someone “threatening” In the top 15.
AJ skills: Power, boxing still at the top
Joshua boxing skills are still as good as always, and its power is at the highest level. Certainly has the ability to continue the fight at the age of 40, provided he accepts Klitschko style that he used to defeat Andy Ruiz in their rematch in 2019.
During this fight, Joshua noted his fighting style, stabbing, holding and moving to avoid a combination of a punch with Ruiz. It worked well that Anthony won a wide 12-round unanimous decision.
35-year-old AJ comes out of a brutal defeat in the fifth round with Daniel Dubois in September last year in London. The way Joshua was beaten in this fight raises questions about his ability to take a difficult blow without knocking out.
“If he doesn’t look good in a training camp, if the sparring does not look good if we go in a fight in November. Let’s arrange it this way. If he goes to fight in November or December and does not look good at all, I would say to him even before the fight of fury,” maybe we don’t have to do it, “said Eddie Hearn. IFL TV About Anthony Joshua.
Deontay Wilder was mentioned as a potential opponent of Joshua if Tyson Fury does not leave the pension. Using the former heavyweight master WBC, Wilder, would be a good option for Joshua to build confidence. In this fight he would have to box, not throw it away if he wanted to avoid knocking out the “brown bomber”. A good fight would be to return to Klitschko’s style.
Next fight: chosen threatening opponent
“You will learn very quickly, which he left in November or December, because he will fight someone threatening, because in the top 15 there is no one threatening,” said Hearn.
Anthony fans still believe that he is the same Vintage version of herself, which became a professional in 2013. They blame his loss with Dubois with his trainer, Ben Davis, telling him to “throw ankle” in the fifth round. It was a crazy council, because Joshua was doing well Daniel, using his stab and looked as if he was on his way to victory.
Adrien Broner has sparked fresh concern after he shared a late-night post from a flight showing multiple drinks as questions continue to mount over his boxing future.
The former four-division world champion posted the clip with the caption, “I’m almost close to Denzel on this,” referring to the film – a comparison that raises its own questions.
The backlash was almost immediate, with comments ranging from mockery to concern as Broner’s latest appearance came days after a tumultuous run that had already cast doubt on his latest comeback attempt.
Some questioned whether the return rumors had died down, while others took a more direct assessment of the current state of affairs. A smaller number urged Broner to peaceful down, but the overall reaction pointed in one direction: uncertainty.
Same pattern, fresh moment
Fasting is not an isolated moment. It follows a pattern in which failures are quickly followed by promises of redemption.
This comes after a messy period in which Broner was already given a “last chance” opportunity to return to the game after admitting he had returned to street life and was asking for one last chance.
Since then, events have unfolded rapidly, from a 48-hour spiral that required intervention to prevent drinking and driving, to further fallout involving those around him. Each moment reinforced the same question: had anything actually changed?
Adrien Broner under pressure
Broner continues to beg, begging for another chance. The final comeback is already approaching the next evening’s moment, when the former champion reaches the age of 37 and is running out of time to make the same promises.
It seems that Don King has become another promoter who has failed to tame “The Problem” who is intent on chasing quick money while living the same lifestyle – it’s getting tiring to repeat it.
For a fighter once on the verge of becoming a superstar, the gap between promise and reality has never been greater.
What will happen next?
There are no longer concerns about whether Broner will be able to return to the ring.
It’s a question of whether he can stay on track long enough to get back on track.
The recording speaks for itself. The reaction was sobering. The question is now elementary – is it the same cycle again?

“I think one or two more fights,” Ramirez told Fight Hub TV when asked about his long-term plans. “I have been practicing this sport for a long time.”
Ramirez, 33, said that while he still wants to continue his career for now, he is already thinking about how his career will end, not how long it can be extended. Ramirez said he has achieved key goals in the sport, including becoming world champion in two divisions, but still wants to perform at the highest level before he retires.
That pursuit begins with Benavidez, a fight that Ramirez believes will define his status and push his name further to the top of the sport.
“I will beat him. That’s my plan, to fight Opetaia,” said Gilberto about his desire to fight former IBF cruiserweight champion Jai Opetaia.
It’s a shoot-for-the-stars plan for Ramirez, but you can’t blame him for wanting to fight Opetaia. The biggest obstacle is not only the fight itself, but also where Jai Opetaia currently sits. Jai is now the face of Dana White’s Zuffa Boxing.
At the same time, Ramirez hinted at one last twist before his retirement. When asked about moving up again, he left the door open to a possible heavyweight fight, even admitting that he may not be the biggest fighter in the division.
“Why not?” Ramirez talked about moving up to heavyweight. “That would be amazing.”
If Zurdo loses to Benavidez, his plan for Opetaia will likely evaporate and he may just go straight to the heavyweight event for one last payday before he suspends them.

The final decision may come after the Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao rematch drama ends.
Earlier this year, it was announced that Mayweather and Pacquiao were set to fight professionally more than 10 years after their first meeting, with the event streaming live on Netflix and taking place on September 19 at The Sphere in Las Vegas.
In recent weeks the duel was in doubt, after Mayweather stated that the fight would instead be an exhibition, while Pacquiao continues to insist that it must be a fully sanctioned fight.
Since it is currently unknown whether this will actually come to fruition, this has probably given the clearest signal that this will no longer happen.
Conversation with FightHypepromoter Eddie Hearn said he thinks Netflix can now focus on the WBC welterweight title fight between Ryan Garcia and Conor Benn, essentially replacing the Mayweather-Pacquiao event.
“It’s all a mess. I’m surprised Netflix got into this whole circus… Netflix is modern to boxing, but they need to be a little more solid in the routine because you can’t actually call the fight and it just falls by the wayside and it just doesn’t look great.”
“NO [I don’t believe it will happen]not now. Netflix is only going to do so many fights and the Benn-Garcia fight is now said to be on September 12 or whenever that happens, so obviously this is the fight to replace Mayweather-Pacquiao.
“If it happened Mayweather-Pacquiao, they are committed to that fight, but if it doesn’t happen they will want another fight and from the sound of it it will be Garcia vs. Benn.”
The world title fight between Garcia and Benn has been widely discussed this month, and if Hearn is right, it could spell the end of any hopes of Mayweather and Pacquiao fighting again.
