Anyone that thinks he can compete with Joshua is having an absolute bubble. How is he possibly going to win? Pot shot from the outside? Grab/wrestle? Turn him up close? Funks sake, it's laughable, even if he got inside on Joshua he'd get tossed into the third row, they'd need to use reinforced corner posts and ropes.
Virgil Hunter wants it because he's shortly about to drop back into obscurity when Ward retires, might as well risk killing his man to make more dough in one night than they did their entire career put together.
I hear what you're saying, and I know it sounds crazy, but like I said, they wouldn't just line up a fight and go for it. They would be working out a strategy and trying it out on numerous BIG guys in the gym, and maybe then they would see that it ain't possible and that would be that.
BUT............if they thought they had a chance, they would go for it. Andre Ward would not go into a ring with anyone and make himself look a cunt.
All I'm saying, is that he thinks he has a chance, and it ever happened, then I think he has a shot.
I'm fully aware I could look a mug.
