Comments Thread For: Wallin: I Feel Like I'm Really Deserving Of This Fight With Joshua; I'm Best Option For Sure

too risky, Wallin not getting this fight

[mjh1969]

Wallin is a helluva fighter with a bad promoter. He is too risky for Joshua at this point. He might hit Joshua and hurt him and then it's back to the drawing board for Joshua. Hopefully he elevates his career, gets a better promoter and becomes a world champion.

Useless fight for Joshua. It is not even a big event.

Joyce, Ruiz Junior, Wilder are all bigger fights that can be made.

Wilder being pathetic has really ruined HW boxing. A 100% there Wilder would have a great chance of winning against AJ. Don't know why the guy ran away after losing to ONE person. Instead we are talking about AJ vs Wallin

Really? Just not convinced Wallin has proved it yet. He went 12 rounds with Breazeale. His main career highlight seems to be losing-with-style against Fury. Well Steve Cunningham already did that, and then showed how little that meant in his next few fights at HW

Wallin just made a big mistake , he reminded Hearn/Joshua that Martin dropped Ortiz twice and Ortiz didn't look good.
Ortiz gets the fight!

Wallin I like the guy but he seems to be really wanting to just hang about and cash in on the bit of notoriety from the fury fight, the issue for him is that was years ago now and hes don't nothing noteworthy since.

He was unlucky with the Whyte situation but he needs to make his own luck now, he could have made a push for the Hrgovic fight for instance, that was winnable for him and would have really put him right in line.

I’ll take a wallin Joshua bout all day, we know this dude just had the world slip through his fingers not long ago. I think he loses but he surprises us. These days sometimes you gotta pick between the guy that’s gonna have a lower shot to win but shows up to actually try and win and guys with a higher chance of winning that will show up and not try to win because they worry about looking too bad in defeat the first time their bell gets rung.

Wallin wasn’t ranked he in no way was considered to fight Hrgovic . Wallin defeating Hrgovic is another big stretch ,it’s stylistically a better fight for him but Hrgovic isn’t going to lose to anyone that can’t hurt him .

Everyone knows it is ortiz after the msrtin fight. Ortiz mystery age caught up to him. Aj needs someone to look impressive drop possible ko that has a name. Ortiz it is. Joyce next. He def not fighting wilder that is a loss. Wallen need a higher rank and bigger name

At this stage in the division’s ups and downs, does it matter? AJ is a known quantity: very good yet vulnerable, with an aura of having been found out. Nobody can now expect him to take over. Nor, though, can he be ruled out.

If Joshua has a shaky future, it is nothing compared to the psychological three alarm fire that is Tyson Fury. Nobody in the ring has been able to finesse or clobber him. Actually, Wilder clobbered him over and over—it didn’t matter.Yet at any given moment, the mercurial Tyson may run off to join the circus as a fire eater.

All this is to say that the division is on the verge of changing. New champs are likely to appear soon. I doubt it’s going to be Waillin or Joyce (or Whyte), but we’ll see. What we really need to sort this out is to have Usyk back from the front in one, safe piece.
