9 fights, 9 wins not an enticing prospect for future opponents.

Anthony Joshua?s promoter comments on how hard it is to get suitable opponents at the right price.

There will always be those who criticize the opponents selected for Anthony Joshua, but in the aftermath of the recent two-round knockout of Denis Bakhtov, Eddie Hearn explained the problems he has getting people in the ring, remarking,

?Anthony is due to fight Michael Sprott next month and I wouldn?t be surprised if Sprott called me after watching that and asked for more money.?

?We are paying a premium to get opponents anyway because they all know what is in store.?


A harsh fact of life I?m afraid when it comes to bringing on a hard-hitting prospect.
