Some feel he has been shot both mentally and physically after spending 10 years in the professional game. His April 1st contest should be a confidence builder to boost his spirits as he needs to win at this point to save his career.<\/p>\n<p>Unless Hahn promotes the Joshua vs. Franklin fight from that angle <strong>&#8220;Win or Retire&#8221;<\/strong> It doesn&#8217;t bring you more than a handful of pay-per-view purchases. Americans may not approve of the fight in droves, but British fans will if Hearn promotes a contest themed on his retirement.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, Hahn has been coy about whether Joshua&#8217;s match will be pay-per-view, suggesting he doesn&#8217;t want a flood of bad press and abuse from fans before his fight with Franklin is negotiated. But that doesn&#8217;t matter. For pay-per-views, fans are going to roast Hahn non-stop, and many refuse to buy the fight out of principle.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Joshua vs. Franklin &#8216;might be&#8217; a PPV<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Eddie Hearn told Boxing Social about Anthony Joshua&#8217;s next fight at The O2 Arena in London on April 1, &#8220;It will be announced at AJ next week.&#8221; There is a high possibility that the will fight.I think it will be a great match.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>&#8220;Maybe it&#8217;s pay-per-view, maybe not. Look at this space<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;On the one hand, &#8216;Anthony Joshua is done, he&#8217;s mentally shattered,&#8217; &#8216;Oh, Jermaine Franklin is a terrible fight, he&#8217;ll knock him out in three rounds,&#8217; and &#8216;Jermaine Franklin beat Dillian White&#8217;, but it&#8217;s a terrible fight for AJ.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These people are totally psychic. This is a really, really hard fight for him to go back to. Back in the Lion&#8217;s Den of O2. It&#8217;s a big event and I&#8217;m looking forward to seeing you all.&#8221; [Joshua] return. He&#8217;s out in Texas now and training.  I hope he gets to meet the wonderful Anthony Joshua on April 1st.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAdam Catarrall, I like fighting disciples, but fuck me. [Joshua] When he was going to fight Fury, people said, &#8220;Oh, you can&#8217;t let him fight Fury.&#8221; After the battle of Usyk, he broke down mentally. He needs to rebuild and come back.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Now he&#8217;s back in the fight with the same people who said Franklin beat Dillian White. I think it was a very, very close fight. &#8216;It&#8217;s a mismatch.&#8217; A good heavyweight and full of confidence.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Hahn hits back at criticism <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>\u201cWe saw the number one heavyweight in the world beat Deontay Wilder, beat Dillian White, and fight Derek Chisora. I just fought 1, lost to him twice, he got a new trainer, he&#8217;s back, and he&#8217;s going to fight Jermaine Franklin.<\/p>\n<p>All I can say is F**k things. I&#8217;ve never been more excited about the return of Anthony Joshua. It&#8217;s personal to me that this guy is going back to where he belongs: the World Heavyweight Championship.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re going to the O2. All eyes will be on the O2 arena and Anthony Joshua that night and you&#8217;ll see that the pressure is on. There&#8217;s a lot of pressure in this fight,&#8221; Hahn said. Told.<\/p>\n<div class=\"perfmatters-lazy-youtube\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Odbo8_UQG-I\" data-id=\"Odbo8_UQG-I\" data-query=\"start=398&amp;feature=oembed\" onclick=\"perfmattersLazyLoadYouTube(this);\">\n<div><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/Odbo8_UQG-I\/hqdefault.jpg\" alt=\"YouTube videos\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" nopin=\"nopin\"\/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><noscript><\/p>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe title=\"&quot;FU*K THEM THEY CONTRADICT THEMSELVES MORE THAN ME!&quot;- Eddie Hearn SLAMS AJ Critics, Benn &amp; Paul-Fury\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Odbo8_UQG-I?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><\/noscript><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/__i\/rss\/rd\/articles\/CBMiZ2h0dHBzOi8vd3d3LmJveGluZ25ld3MyNC5jb20vMjAyMy8wMi9hbnRob255LWpvc2h1YS12cy1qZXJtYWluZS1mcmFua2xpbi1jb3VsZC1iZS1wcHYtc2F5cy1lZGRpZS1oZWFybi_SAQA?oc=5\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] To Sam Voltz: Eddie Hahn says the next fight between Anthony Joshua and Jermaine Franklin could be shown on pay-per-view on April 1 from<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13123,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":[],"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13122","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-boxing-mma-combat-sports","two-columns"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/0K8A8392-Boxing-Photos.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13122","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13122"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13122\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13123"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13122"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13122"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13122"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
