There’s only one thing that true fight fans want: the best boxers battling it out for the gold in the prime of their lives.
Nobody wants to see two pound-for-pound greats going at it too late; as was the case when Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao finally locked horns a little too far down the line for most fans’ liking.
At the age of 29, Anthony Joshua is arguably in his prime as a boxer, and having rarely been tested during his 22-fight career there is still plenty of gas in the tank too.
The concern, however, for AJ’s fans is that he isn’t getting the big fight nights his talent deserves, instead tackling second-rate heavyweights – albeit while still filling arenas – and taking his customary knockout victory.
That’s certainly the case for June’s date with Jarrell Miller in New York; ‘Big Baby’ has rather talked his way into the fight, given that the best name on his CV is, erm, Tomasz Adamek.
Barring an absolute miracle, this is a no-contest. The bookmakers make Joshua a 1/7 favourite in the latest boxing odds and that’s testament to his ability and Miller’s lack of big fight pedigree.
