    I don’t think Wilder is going to ever take a Joshua fight unless he absolutely -has to-

    He couldn't logistically somebody credibility explain how AJ was ducking his boy.

    Wilder did not want to fight Povetkin, he went to the WBC and begged them to cancel the fight, then VADA made a mistake, then cleared Povetkin for that fight, but the WBC has to protect their fighter. I predicted that Wilder never wanted to fight Ortiz because Ortiz is a threat. The WBC made Stiverne mandatory because he is inactive, out of shape, over the hill, old and has no chance, looked awful in his only fight since he went the distance with Wilder. Ortiz was framed, blood pressure medicine is not a PED as was explained by Conte and the doctors. But the WBC's main job is to protect Wilder. Not one of Wilder's winos from the alley every tested positive for anything. Millions of people are taking blood pressure meds today because of all the sodium in the food we buy, huge amounts is killing people and young people are getting strokes. Can anyone explain how Stiverne got ranked? He did nothing to get ranked except look bad.

    AJ is gonna run out of appealing opponents by the end of 2018, man what a weak HW division.

    Not really as long as They dont fight three times a year,like Hearn is suggetsing.Tyson Fury definitely needs to come back and when his bank balance starts to go south he will.I'd say after Pulev,another mandatory in March,then a unification with Parker in September.Hold out the wilder fight for as long as possible to build up intrest and force Wilder to fight better opposition.Then in 2019 go for Wilder.If Mayweather/Pac and GGG/Canelo took 5 years to make,im sure it will take the same amount of time to make Joshua/Wilder.

    Wilder should accept 10% of the purse and be thankful for it.

    I think Wilder will be getting smashed in three rounds after both their next fights.

    Wilder probably thinks he deserves a 50-50 split with AJ LMAO.

    Going by your profile pic,i think you would say Joshua would smash Mike Tyson,Lennox Lewis,Ali,all in the same ring.

    Judging by Jushua’s recent interview it could be 2019 or even 2020. Essentially he says there are lots of fights out there for him.

    I think he’s learning how to play the game, now. Wilder’s team will be sweating at the thought of a 3 year wait.

    At this point we have to write Wilder off ever facing AJ or another elite HW.

    He is now coming up to 3 years as WBC strap holder and has faced a grand total of zero elite HWs

    To add insult to injury none of those opponents have gone on and achieved anything following losing to him, more adding to the fact these opponents are trash.
