    They keep cheating everytime he is about to fight them first Povetkin and now Ortiz. Should Wilder have fought anyone dangerous before of course but he has been cheated out of a few big fights now.

    He should of took that fight for his sake but we all know if he beats Whyte everyone will say Whyte was AJs leftovers.

    He has a strap, what did Martin do for AJ to take that fight??

    The wilder fanboys/Joshua detractors would be very sad if this fight actually took place .Why? Well what purpose do they serve after Wilder takes the L? They will scatter like roaches.

    The real fans want this fight to happen sooner than later.Too much $ involved to not take the fight in 2018. When wilder loses i just hope he doesnt disappear bc there's still matches i actually want to see him in. How do you gauge this guy on 2 Stiverne wins an a Joshua loss as a summary of his career ?

    Said it before and will say it again, boxing is a business period. Talk in interviews is a part of that business. AJ beats Wilder IMHO, but some posters on this forum seem to forget that fact that Wilder is still a dangerous opponent for AJ. If AJ is jumping up and down saying he definitely wants Wilder.. Wilder will have a much better case for asking for a better split.

    Fights happen or not for largely business reasons. If both parties can make a lot of money then it will happen.

    Have a day off, Wilder wouldn't even fight Whyte for a career high payday ffs.

    Wilder brings nothing but a belt, that's all, he isn't a big name, he is fighting in front of small crowds compared to Joshua and if we are talking truth then even Bellew has a better win at heavyweight than Wilder.

    Wilder is just a protected carefully guided heavyweight who hasn't fought anybody worth fighting and he has had 38 professional fights.

    If I was Joshua I'd make him wait, make him earn his shot at the number 1 heavyweight on the planet.

    Wilder has it all to prove and fighting Stiverne again isn't helping his cause.

    The fact is that both don't seem keen on fighting Ortiz.

    I'm picking AJ but Wilder has a shot for sure, with that right hand he has a shot any fight.

    It's strange though the Wilder fans want this fight way more than the AJ fans, even though the AJ fans think Wilder is a bum.

    IDK about that.Seems like Wilder fans dont want the guy to fight top guys in general...these arent fans though these are fanboys.As long as wilder still has his 0 ,they can say whatever they like. I dont like wilders chances much TBH ,theres way more than punching hard and i consider Joshua one of the most dangerous HW's ive ever seen which doesnt hold good for wilder who really would be in the crowd of those tall Hw's from the 80's.

    Those counting on the Wilder punch and ONE shot to land on Joshua and he folds hasnt done there homework in many areas. Theres so many spots that point to a full mismatch here i will break this down when it happens. Still a fight i look forward too just on the basis of that kill or be killed atmosphere.I dont see this going beyond 5.

    Fans really dont understand progress doesnt stop at 19 fights or even 25.....

    We all know Wilder will ask for 10M+. Martin took 4M, a huge amount, and the sum Wilder already rejected, against Whyte lol.


    Wilder is playing poker, but his hand is very poor. Look at his carrer and the amount of money he's taking now.
    Hearn knows this

    Heard that interview today. I think it’s Jushua just playing the game.

    He does basically say the timing might not be right, and had he not fought Wlad I would read more into it. But he has thought and beat Wlad, who I see as a vastly superior boxer to Wilder, who carries just as much power.

    I can see Joshua fighting Haye as his voluntary next year, should Haye not break down against Bellew. That will be a mega money fight. Parker wants Joshua in 2018 also. He’s got all the options, I guess.

    It's abit two early to give AJ such a big tag but with that being said AJ has flaws which play into wilders hand. AJ is the more polished of the two but trust me Wilders erratic style is hard to deal with too, only Spilka had a lot of success with him and he has quick feet whereas AJ doesn't have that type of speed.

    I'm playing devils advocate as I think this is a very tough match for either man and both carry a big punch which can change any fight.

    AJ is progressing but he has two belts so he shouldn't expect the fans to wait, if that's the case just toss the belts and have your learning fights.

    Szpilka had success, Washington jabbed him around the ring for 4 rounds. Duhaupas busted him up, Molina rocked him, Sconiers and Nichols had him down....Joshua breaks him without too much fuss.

    Hearn wants to promote Wilder too so he can make money from both sides.

    And he wants Wilder to have more than 1 fight in the UK, as the WBC champ so he can maximise his profits. Smart guy

    Wilder DOES NOT WANT TO FIGHT Anyone except AJ, because he doesnt want to risk to lose his cash out fight

    AJ has nothing to do with this.

    Its Hearn, who's a great businessman, and Wilder who' s a coward, plain and simple.

    Martin took 4M against an olympic champ and pro with 100% KO ratio

    Wilder said no to the same amount, for Dillian Whyte LMAO

    If he was prepared to take on Klitschko then he`d hardly worried about taking on Wilder. If Wilder wants a megafight with Joshua he needs to do something to earn it.
