Three elite heavyweights, three underwhelming fight announcements. Does the heavyweight scene resemble a 'disaster' and just what is going on?
Three elite heavyweights, three underwhelming fight announcements.
Anthony Joshua cancelled a much-hyped booking of Wembley Stadium in April and now defends his IBF, WBO and WBA titles in New York against Jarrell Miller on 1 June. Joshua, Wilder and Fury are with different broadcasters, different promoters and have different agendas. I have to say, it is a heavyweight disaster.
In December after their draw, Wilder and Fury had that rare thing in this sport - some moral high ground, knowing they would give us a rematch for what had thrilled us.
