And AJ has that punch if he goes for it. This fight, and the possible AJ/Wilder fight, are good fights to have this year.
Yeah the thing about AJ is yes he doesn't have the best punch resistence but sometimes the best form of defence is offence.
I think a fury fight could be interesting just because Fury would get under his skin so much Joshua might actually go into the ring really angry for once.

Yep, make less money and take less risk. They don't have any trouble signing up with promoters, just not with opponents.

Huni injured, withdraws from Tabiti bout
By Ray Wheatley – World of Boxing
WBO #14 heavyweight Justis Huni (7-0, 4 KOs) has suffered an ankle injury in sparring and been forced to withdraw from his June 17 bout with Andrew Tabiti (20-1, 16 KOs) over ten rounds at the Smoothie King Centre, New Orleans. The bout was planned for the undercard of the WBC super lightweight bout Regis Prograis vs. Danielto Zorrillo, promoted by Eddie Hearn.
“I am devastated that this has happened so close to the fight,” Huni told the Courier Mail. “I was packed and ready to go, I was a day away from flying out and now this has happened.”

I like Huni, think he has very good skills but his hands a brittle and injuries are hampering his development

Pretty early in his career to start having injuries. I like his grit and power, but he better get on the fast track to quality opposition while he can. The fight he was going to have looked good, at least the opponent had a good record.
