    Exactly. He’s fighting top 10 fighters all the time and destroying them. Look at his record and compare it to Wilder and Fury’s. He’s had less fights and fought the much better names.

    Agreed. Joshua has the better resume. I've been Wilder's harshest critic for years. He's been protected and had fixed fights.

    Still, Joshua is ducking him.

    You are arguing with yourself.

    AJ has the better resume without question. It's not even close. Ive been Wilder's harshest critic as I said in my comment above this post. He's been protected up until the Ortiz fight and I believe been involved in fixed fights. I was convinced Povetkin was gonna knock Wilder out and thought it was very convenient that a failed drug test emerged.

    That's the problem with your mindset. You equate that if someone criticises Joshua then they must be a Wilder fan boy. That is so wrong - at least with me anyway.

    It's not even up for debate that it's Joshua's team that have been ducking the only fight that matters in the heavyweight division. Anyone that is remotely objective can see that. Using his resume as proof that he isn't ducking doesn't work I'm afraid. That's like saying Khan hasn't ducked Brook because he has the better resume. That's just one silly example off the top of my head; there will be plenty of better ones.

    It took Lewis 44 fights to get all of those names you have mentioned.
    Joshua has only had 22 fights

    You could say similar with many HWs

    For 22 fights he is doing very well IMO and has fought many names who have been in the HW top 10

    Yeah I used to argue with myself all the time, I did have a little voice in my head but we had a really terrible argument and we haven't spoken for years.


    Anyway, when exactly did Joshua ducked Wilder?

    Joshua beats 2 Olympic gold medalists, an all time great, 2 future hall of famers, 2 former world champions, a current world champion in a unifying bout and 2 mandatories in 18 months. Wilder fans... "why he no fight anybody?" :lol::lol::lol:

    Barry Hearn admitted himself that Team Wilder wanted the fight next, and he thought that was business crazy. The cat was out the bag long ago. You simply can't try and wiggle out of this one by claiming Bazza doesn't have a say in the matter. He had a meeting with Wilder's representatives and felt they wanted the fight which he thought was crazy. Nail in the coffin right there. But let's continue.

    Bazza said the fight was worth 70million (it's more than that but let's play along) which means these "legit" offers made up about 18-22% of the pot. (Really about 10%) Ridiculous low ball offers made to block the fight. Now Eddie is saying wilder deserves 35% at most. Why not just offer that at the time? Or at least a split? Wilder called their bluff and accepted their low ball offer and Hearn produced a contract without a date or venue. When this was outed to the public then Eddie quickly resent a new one with the date being APRIL 2019!

    AJ is on video in October 2017 saying that he won't be rushed into the Wilder fight and he will be fine if it doesn't happen next year, the year after, or the year after that.

    Eddie, who always says Joshua is the boss and he decides who he fights, said at the fishing tournament that Joshua would prefer Whyte over Wilder.

    And of course the infamous 50 million dollars GUARANTEED that AJ asked for was turned down claiming they "owe it to the fans to fight in the UK" lmaoooo. You can skirt round this issue all you like claiming that Sky Sports wouldn't be involved so it's not a legit offer: 1. Sky could have been involved, 2. AJ got what he asked for & more, 3. What if AJ ever lost a purse bid? Would you defend him pulling out the fight because it might not happen on Sky Sports? Of course you wouldn't...well maybe you would.


    I can only imagine what the Hearn protectors would be saying if Finkel said Wilder wanted Breazeale next not AJ, and that team AJ wanted the fight next which he thought was crazy.

    This is just the tip of the iceberg.

    yeah but most of them are the same 40 yr old person, to be fair.
