Not seen this Miller, is he just chasing the dough, or he a good boxer, Bazza/McG?

[tikay]

He's on it

Enjoyed that, thanks Marky.

Murky world, boxing promotions. Not sure I'd wanna be the other side of the table to Eddie in negotiations.

I know Frank Warren's daughter-in-law quite well. Boy of boy, she tells me some incred stories.   

Love these boxing promotors, all a bit wide, in a lovable rogue sort of way.

One of London's most notorious gangsters & extortionists was Joey Pyle, & I've got a couple of books about him. He died around 10 years ago, but I believe his son is still a boxing promotor. Deffo don't wanna mess with them boys.

Wouldnt mind a read of that one Tikay if you get time

He’s a fat lump. As far lumps go he’s decent but he’s a fat lump nonetheless.

AJ fights Miller next, I’m fairly sure of that. The cash cow won’t be risked against Deontay any time soon.

Taylor v Postol in a final eliminator for the WBC belt. Proper fight. You have to admire the McGuigan’s, when they have a real talent they don’t lose about. 13th fight and in to a final eliminator against and opponent that’s only been beaten by a top 5 p4p man in crawford.

How can Joshua not fight Wilder now and keep face?

Easily, when he has Eddie as a manager.

Gotcha.

I'd sooner see AJ fight Fury.

Wilder annoys me.

I do worry, as I really enjoy watching his interviews. Especially the ones he does with Kugan.

He's sharp, just like his old man. Long way from Dominos & £20 SnG @ Leyton Orient, while they're filming in the back room

Funny watching him and Warren go at each other. He was going on about Khan beating up a nothing fighter, but you can guarantee when Fury beats his can in June, he'll be crowing just like Eddie was.

Think I've seen that Pyle's son, he mixes in the same circles as some of the bareknuckle boys, if I've got the right guy.

Used to love reading all those mob books, about the London firms. Tim Blake knows the Lambrianious, and had some business dealings with them back when he was a bookie.

You and me both. AJ probably beats Wilder fairly handily. The problem with Wilder from Eddie’s point of view is if he was to beat AJ it would be by laying him out. All of a sudden AJ’s marketability goes through the floor.

Yeah, he only loses if he gets caught. Can't blame them for trying to print for a couple more fights given how big hie is as a brand.

Wilder is good to watch, but far too chirpy for someone who has only fought doormen himself. Ortiz excluded, obv.

Nuanced thick lump who pumps iron 365 and looks to be getting trimmer. Think NFL offensive linesman as opposed to a traditional fat lump. Dave Allen type lead feet will be his downfall.

Marky nailed it. Wilder's team are forcing the issue knowing Hearn will string them along then ditch them for Tyson Fury. Eddie will manage it anyway.

Povetkin purse bids are due in 2 weeks time so AJ will be dropping the WBA belt. Billionare Rabinsky is the only promoter in the world Hearn doesn't want to get into a bidding war with. Why negotiate with Russians when you can cock tease the Americans.

[Marky147]

Ideal final warm up for Fury, before AJ.

This guy is too good!

[McGlashan]

Naturally big baby weighs in at a career heavy 304lbs. No chance he ever takes it seriously. This fight is going to be ugly.

Just saw that weigh in, and gathered the other guy is just a doorman.
