Both work hard, of course, but Ronaldo needed to do more, and did it.”

He has been trying to get a fight vs Deontay Wilder now, but even when negotiations were successful, Saudi Arabia said they could not host it. He has even tried to make a fight against Tyson Fury but the negotiations failed. AJ might be on track to fight Filip Hrgovic, as neither Tyson nor Usyk are currently scheduled to face him. However, Tyson and Usyk also have a rematch clause in place, making it nearly impossible for the fight against Filip to happen. Therefore, AJ would be the top contender to face Filip.
Who would you like to see AJ fight next, do let us know.
