one thing for certain though is the pressure is on Hearn to really step up Joshua and push on Brook now because there's no chance people will continue to follow AJ putting down another bum and no chance Brook is going to be taken seriously stateside facing the likes of JoJo Dan and Gavin,
in serious risk of bringing down his stock because the only name on his record remains Porter.
he really needed to build on that and not go the opposite direction which he's doing facing the likes of Gavin. Hearns just milking it as long as he can, this was an easy pay day for him -
Johnson didn't command the kinda payday Chisora and others would and posed nowhere near the risk Price and Areola would but was still marketed to sell tickets because they overly played on the ploy of him never being stopped by Vitali, Fury etc
easy wins for AJ and Brook and easy money for Hearns.
has to be Chisora or Price next for AJ and no doubt it will be Chisora because Price is probably too much of a risk and will probably be Rios next for Brook i think.
should have been Brook facing Algieri instead of Khan a few nights ago but wasn't a big enough pay out for Hearns, domestic PPV more money - needed him headlining the 02.
worst thing is i genuinely believe Brook and Thurman are the best outside of FMW and after Porter Brook should have been positioned for some big US fights, potentially FMW for September but been horribly handled by Hearns.
