British Heavyweight Domestic's can be a little better!
There is no reason why Whyte, Joshua, Cornish, Towers, Price, both Fury's and Chisora should not have fought one another by now.
Looking at the top ten rankings of British heavyweights, the only guys that fought each other were the top two- Fury and Chisora. And, of course, when Joshua dispatched Sprott- with Sprott not even deserving to be in the top ten rankings.
Also, there is no David Haye and no Sam Sexton.

It is clever by the promoters.
Why have them fight and have half of them move up to the bext level, when you can pamper each individual to a higher level.
It is not right in my opinion, but it makes sense financially.
It's the same reason Hearn just said he wont make Fielding vs Smith yet, they can both move up in class and then meet, which will be a mich bigger event.

Don't make excuses for the lack of activity... because the same has been done by Haymon over the course of the last few years with several of his fighters, most notably Deontay Wilder and Danny Garcia.

In this age of Aquarius, the only way the hype machine works is if these guys don't fight each other.
Re: British Heavyweight Domestic's can be a little better!
Cornish vs. Joshua set for September 12th...

yeah what is with this scene? I have often thought this very same thing.
Re: British Heavyweight Domestic's can be a little better!
PPV Joshua v Whyte is a joke.
Re: British Heavyweight Domestic's can be a little better!
You could say this about every weight division in Britain, and in pretty much every country. Prospects rarely fight each other, particularly if they are good. You can remove Cornish, Towers and Chisora from the list beacuse they are no good but fighters are overprotected far too much which is why the sports seen as a joke by many.
Re: British Heavyweight Domestic's can be a little better!
They are still trying to re-build Chisora and even he does not believe he will do anything more.
