    yeah that's if the fight happens

    Anthony Joshua vs Kubrat Pulev in doubt after reports world heavyweight title challenger is injured
    Anthony Joshua's defence of his world heavyweight title against Kubrat Pulev is reportedly in doubt.

    The pair are due to meet in front of a crowd of 80,000 in Cardiff on Saturday week.

    But reports in Bulgaria claim Pulev may pull out after suffering a injury to a muscle in his shoulder.

    Joshua was crowned world champion last year when he stopped Charles Martin to win the IBF strap.

    Routine defences against Dominic Breazeale and Eric Molina followed before Joshua took on Wladimir Klitschko at Wembley six months ago.

    The 2012 Olympic gold medalist climbed off the canvas to stop the heavyweight legend in the 11th round and add the WBA strap to his growing collection.

    Joshua was ordered to face Pulev as the mandatory challenger for his IBF belt.
    It would suit me if the fight was cancelled because the Black Rebel Motorcycle Club are playing Birmingham on the same night and I wouldn't mind going to see them

    Looks like it's Takam replacing Pulev. No doubt Joshua will cop a load of shit for this as if it were his fault!

    Well I blame AJ for it

    If Wilder can scare people onto PEDS then it's only fair that AJ can scare people into injuring themselves

    Is it just me or do HWs seem to constantly pull out of fights?

    Not ideal. No offence to Takam, he's in the number 3 position so it's only right he gets the job. You've got Whyte V Helenius on the card but If Whyte Helenius falls through for any reason other than Dillian getting a rematch with AJ, Dillian would literally kill Eddie Hearn.

    I know no one really gives a fuck about Pulev/Takam, it's all about Joshua and people will still get to see him beat some fucker up. But it does take a bit of a hit now that it's a late replacement. Personally, I would have liked to have seen Miller and his mouth brought in.

    So Pulev is out of the way, Ortiz is out of the way. A deal with HBO is right around the corner. Basically it’s Wilder next or never. Good

    I know most on here don't give a shit and 99% of the crowd wont but Yafai-Ishida, Whyte-Helinus, Buglioni-Johnson and a bunch of prospects is a bloody good night of boxing for a boring nerd like me.

    Glad they've saved the card and Takam is a good late replacement. If they made Dave Allen or Lenroy Thomas the replacement anyone that bought a ticket would still turn up.

    Takam is respectable considering the circumstances. Should be an easy night for Joshua and yes I'll still be happy to watch him beat some fucker up lol

    Not AJ's fault

    Wonder if this will stay on ppv / box office ??

    Difficult to justify now

    Though Hearn is saying AJ is not prepared for this opponent as all focussed on Pulev style - scary stuff !!!!!

    I think Eddie will put it on BBC 1 free to air now.

    Of course it won't be taken off PPV. Nobody was paying to see Palev (who the fuck is Palev) nothing has changed really. AJ has an easy fight and a nice payday ahead of him.

    won't happen but with such an easy fight would be the perfect opportunity to look good and get introduce him to millions of potential future box office customers who curerently just know his name and that he is 'quite good'

    I'd take that gamble but then again it's easy for me to say that

    AJ is on tonight on BBC 10.30.

    It would be perfect and he would be as big as Bruno!!!!
