    Sure, Wilder is Bum, you even said so.......so how come Fury does not take care of that fraud and collects a big paycheck ? Easy money......as you are going to say "A in shape" Fury will KO Wilder , Fury is not going to break a sweat to finish that bum, no problem.....so how come he aint doing the deed ?

    He's cleared out the division, amazing that you think he hasn't fought a live opponent.

    When it fits in with the "plan" as described several times by Barry Hearn.

    "When the time is right" aka when we've juiced all the endorsements and PPV and even the thickest casual fans are screaming for a match with either Wilder or Fury or refusing to pay for an another PPV.

    Fury is just following suit and frankly deserves as much scorn. The HW div is a joke and a licence to print money from gullible casuals and gullible boxing fans who think they're going to watch a "stylistic matchup" or other such nonsense. As if damp squib Parker is going to beat Fury. I'm getting sick of all these blatant conjobs getting airtime and acknowledgement.

    With the roiding accusations? Not as much as this time last year I can assure you, that was, before Fury rose from the ashes.

    I think Hearn would be annoyed by this. Fury and wilder fight other opponents then will rematch later in the year prolonging the AJ fight till 2020 giving themselves more excuses to duck AJ?

    You could look at it that way. But Wilder could look at Fury's history of pulling out of fights when the going gets tough and cash out against Joshua, add in the fact that Wilder is a free agent and available to fight on DAZN.

    Roiding accusations won't put a dent in Joshua unless he's caught, not whilst he's an active fighter that is. It goes without saying that if he is cheating I hope he gets caught.

    Disappointed by this. I know there’s lots of business interests and politics involved, but it’s still a shame.

    I believe that all 3 do want to fight each other - but a combination of politics and egos (from fighters, networks and promoters) might have scuppered it.

    This isn't rocket science.

    Fury, Warren and Arum are just doing a Hearn "plan" 2.0 and milking the fans for everything they can get, albeit stateside as opposed to the UK.

    Expect lots of talk about fighting Wilder and Joshua, then inevitable "negotiation failures" while fighting the likes of Jennings, Pulev and if we're "lucky" Parker, strung out over the next three years. If someone else comes along in the meantime who is marketable ala Miller or Usyk, great it will be just another name to toss into the PR spin, and possibly fight if they look beatable.

    There are still clowns who will pump these mismatches up like they mean something though. The HW division deserves to be treated with the contempt it holds its fans in.

    You know the drill.

    Spot on that. It’s indefensible. They’re all as bad as each other.

    Remarkably it’s Wilder who was the ducker before all this nonsense, had only fought 40 bums. Now he’s got the best reputation out of them all!

    Wilder is going back to the playbook he had before he faced Ortiz and Fury.

    Fight the weakest possible contenders for chump change and avoid the best out there.
    Wilder has been blanking Fury since the first fight.

    Wilder will go down in history as a cherry picking bum unless he faces Fury in a rematch and AJ or Whyte.

    He doesn’t have to text Fury. Why does he? He’s the champion, a fight was mandated to purse bids, yesterday one person pulled out and one never. You can’t possibly blame Wilder.

    Wilder will now have to face Breazeale or Whyte as he’s not had a mandatory in a long time. Probably the former.
