    And training.

    If they think he's going to get fat waiting around, that isn't happening.

    Watch, Joshua is fighting again in December. Wilder will sign to fight one tuneup in January and Hearn will say "Wilder is looking in another direction now."

    They may have had a chance if they got a rusty Wilder. But they won't if he has a tuneup first.

    They're trying to "age him out." But, if you're always fit and punch like a missile strike, it's difficult to age a guy out.

    Hearn can claim whatever he wants… It’s mind-boggling some people still acknowledges what he says as facts…

    Dentay started with "Anthony, I've been hearing it from my mouth"

    Brilliant :risas3:

    If you could only delete and re-do videos before posting them, eh! Lol

    Hearn/Joshua are going to keep ducking and ageing Wilder out. Wilder should pivot to Andy Ruiz.

    1. It’s a fight that Wilder would very likely win, probably by KO

    2. Ruiz would be a good money fight towards the end of 38 year old Wilder’s career (African American former titlist vs Mexican former titlist, the man who went 0-2-1 with Fury vs the man who went 1-1 with Joshua)

    3. If Wilder KO’d the currently un-KO’d in 37 fights Ruiz, it would further elevate Wilder above Joshua reputationally and further damage Joshua psychologically

    4. Ruiz beat Ortiz, Ortiz being Wilder’s best win, which created unfinished business between Wilder and Ruiz (the same would be true to a greater extent between Wilder and Joshua if Wilder KO’d Joshua’s first and most destructive conqueror Ruiz)

    5. Beating fellow longtime PBC fighter Ruiz would probably make Wilder Fury’s WBC mandatory or interim champion

    Sadly this fight will never be as big as it woulda been prior to Aj v. Ruiz. They missed the legacy boat, but maybe the cash is there. Is there a such thing as a double cash out fight? Lol

    Wilder admitted he chose Fury for MUUUUCH less money already.

    The word you are looking for is 'Could". He could also get sparked himself, seeing as AJ has the much better skillset.

    That's tough sh!t and on him. Then he needs to be much more active.

    It's a good fight, will give you that.

    :lol: Beating the guy AJ already beat? Suuuure... AJ's resume is still light years ahead of Wilders FFS...

    It created nothing really, as that's not really a thing.

    No one gives a flying f*ck about Fury v Wilder 4....

    Hearn wants Fury after Usyk
    No chance does he throw Aj to the wolves, just to have Wilder end whatever little confidence he has with a single punch in the first round

    Wilder would body him early

    There is more than just Joshua’s little confidence at stake,I honestly think a Wilder fight would retire Joshua in brutal fashion .

    It can be (not say its a fact) that Wilder looking for last payday. Last payday when You got millions before must be "as big as possible".
    Why its possible?
    Wilder lost lot health in Fury fight for sure. He was beaten bad and in third fight nobody stop this masacre because he land one good shot on fat Tyson and all forget that he take same punishment as in second one.
    He pause very long and from that time done nothing. He knockout fast his friend from sparing.
    For me he try hide smth. Maybe he dont want to risk because its worse with him than we think.
    Because its phatetic that dude stay soo inactive in his last years just waiting.

    Maybe both (Joshua too) want soo many $$ for this fight that nobody cant give them both together what they expected.

    I know that in past Wilder was the one WHO avoid fight but now he is the one who scream more and reason is simple. Joshua have much more time and oppurtinitys than him. Joshua still got biggest fanbase in hw and he still have Fury fight what will be massive. He can also fight with Hrgovic, Zhang, he can try attack maybe some belts when they drop them after unification. Wilder got only Joshua. Or Ruiz but he want soo many $$ that nobody pay soo much for that fight.
