    The U.K. is currently the capital of the boxing world. The pretenders have to travel to the U.K.

    I'm sure all the pretenders will be there.

    The WBC champ will be in the U.S.

    Nobody responded. What other heavyweights were told point blank not to get in the ring Saturday?

    Was Tyson Fury? He's supposed to be there. Was Alexander Povetkin? He's going to be there.

    Were they told not to get in the ring?

    Or was it just Wilder?

    Imagine if Wilder or his handlers had told Tyson Fury that this wouldn't be allowed in NYC;

    What this is doing is setting the stage for Wilder to refuse to go to the U.K. to fight Joshua. He is already on record saying the fight must be in America. Wilder is the B side and must be dictated to by Joshua and Hearn. I mean that is what we were told about GGG and Canelo so it must apply here. That puts a lot of people on here in a bind.

    Point is there is legit interest here, not so much to the American HW champ from the big wig American promoter :risas3:

    We know the fast one wanted Wilder there.As he said the world is watching and Wilder could have built a fight with AJ up to the max.More money for Ed of course,and the fighters, but Wilder don't seem to want to be there,despite being paid. Make of it what you will......

    Wilder isn't going because he's afraid of whales.

    Stub Hub Eddie wanted Wilder there for Whyte , not for Joshua. Whtye will confront Wilder before millions watching at home and around the world thus creating a massive demand for that fight , but more importantly it takes pressure off him to make AJ vs Wilder as he has no will nor intent to even entertain that idea.

    The path is clear for these two to meet if Joshua come through Saturday. Im expecting Whyte to be doing all the talking regarding Wilder while being backed up be the entire team of Sky pundits.
    If Hearn wanted Joshua to fight Wilder he wouldn't be desperately trying to make him fight Whyte

    Wilder wants to go but can't leave, the only airport in Alabama has shut down for renovations.

    Wilder would be working for sky speaking directly to the millions watching. How much more exposure do you need to get a point across? That's not forgetting the pre fight exposure. Weigh in, sky sports news interviews, UK press interviews and so on.
