    Default X3 fights a year?

    I know this has been already discussed many times over..but AJ fighting x2 a year is not enough.

    Hearn is now saying the April date won’t happen and it looks like June for the first fight of the year.

    X3 fights a year for these champions should be mandatory.

    AJ needs as much fights as possible.

    I agree.

    I used to say the same about Wladimir Klitschko - he was fighting twice a year, there were a couple of years he fought only once.

    A champ should do one big fight per year (mandatory or unification) and also fight two ranked contenders, for a total of 3 fights per year.

    Most would agree but the champion should be allowed to fight an "easier" opponent if it was the case.

    However they may not be paid the same amount so would prefer not to take the unnecessary risk.

    Could AJ fill a stadium 3 times per year?
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Not getting at Joshua as such, but why do Champions, WORLD CHAMPIONS NO LESS, take “Easier” fights? If you want to call yourself “Champion of the whole World,” then you have to keep defending that status.
    There’s enough people in the World that want to take that title away from you.
    When you get to the top of the hill, you don’t have a breather, you keep pushing .

    If people want world champions to fight 3 times a year then I think it is fair for them to have non-title bouts.

    Nah. if they want non title fights, give up the title! simples. I don't mind alternating between Voluntary or Mandatory, but they should always be for the title. What the fuck are these guys fighting for and indeed we are watching , if it's not for World Titles?
    this is the modern day problem . it's all about money fights rather than titles.

    Nah.

    Joshua should fight March/April, then July/August and then December.

    No excuses..he is a multi millionaire and the top of the hill.

    Whyte, Fat boy Miller and then Fury/Wilder.
