    That's good. Finally a Joshua fan who WANTS to see the fight and isn't bringing up numbers or wanting the fight to be marinated lmao.

    Well if Hearn and AJ stall the fight "After" AJ beats Parker (assuming), well then you would have a FAIR point.

    However, at this point you are jumping the gun and expecting everyone to jump with you. Then you accusing others of biased when they dont, lol, you crazy mofo.

    To call AJ out for ducking Wilder at this point in time is just silly.

    Now at the same time i wont disrespect Wilder claiming he ducked AJ by pricing himself out of his first chance at AJ, but it works both ways dude.

    I dont think either of them fear the other unduly, i just think they both want to make as much of their potential pie as possible before they sign on the dotted line.

    If the fight is not made next, AJ is ducking. There's no time for some Whyte/Wilder or Miller/Joshua bull****. Those don't build fights. It's just a money grabber for Hearn.

    Not really a Joshua fan but think his style is all wrong for someone like Wilder. An orthodox puncher will land on him. Will Wilder go for broke early to try and counter that? I hope so. Could be a great 3-4 round war that way.

    Ah, so you're just someone who wants to see Wilder lose. Did Wilder beating Ortiz upset you? Notice how no real Joshua fans are eager for this fight to happen. While Wilder fans like me are DESPERATE for this fight. We want it so badly.

    Wilder clearly has to power to one punch Joshua so happy to see the fight and hope Fury comes back into the mix to make it even more interesting style wise. Don't give a **** who wins really. 90% of the crap I gave Wilder was about him not stepping up. Now he finally is.

    Yes i agree, except if Wilder/team is outrageous in his demands vs AJ.

    Lets wait and see before assuming stuff before it has happened ok drama boy?

    Who cares about demands the promoters are rich enough to pay both fighters a large enough share.

    I do not understand why boxing fans get so immersed in the negotiation side of things as if they're bargaining for a contract for themselves.

    Eddie Hearn has sent insulting offers to Parker, Fury and Wilder. He is slime. So if any finger pointing needs to be done it should be aimed at him.

    The bottom line is contractual splits isn't a justifiable reason for the fight not happening. Only injuries or mandatories.

    Anything else and it is a duck due to the fighter not wanting the fight and not pushing through a deal hard enough.

    How can you let your promoter stop you from fighting the best unless you allow/want him to?

    Fans become promoters when they want to make an excuse for a fight not happening.

    If wikder wants the fight he'll accept he's the Bside and take Hearns offer.

    Anything else is a duck on his part. You've basically admitted that in your post.

    How can an offer which is multiple times bigger than you have ever earned before be called insulting. There is only one HW selling out stadiums and a million Ppv buys. His name is AJ.

    Well 90 percent of people think Joshua will win, so he's no reason to duck Wilder

    You're freakin out pal, i like your passion for Wilder, nothing wrong with it, he is a exciting fighter there is no doubt.

    If the fight doesnt get made then i will start calling Hearn names, providing its deserved. Not before, lets not forget Wilder just stepped up with success TONIGHT!!!!!! He has just tonight put himself into a spot whereby AJ can make far more money off a Wilder fight then yesterday, so lets be fairly patient before looking like hyper school girls jumping the gun before the other runners havent lined up yet.

    Lol Joshua is not ducking or has ever ducked Wilder. Where’s the evidence? He’s not had time to duck Wilder. If Wilder lowers his demands the fight will happen. Beat him and the roles are reversed. It’s a 50/50 fight.

    No offence, but if you fight Wlad you are not scared of Wilder.
