All Wilder fights is wino's from the alley. Trust me, I'm not the only one saying this. I mean the guy fought a pastry chef for crying out loud. Its the ****ing WBC belt ffs.
He is also taking so much heat for it for some other reasons.... He is yet to face a genuine top HW in his entire sorry career. Two of his last three "worthy of Deontay" opponents have been brutally stopped and looked useless in the process. And because he is 3 years balls deep now as WBC champion and the nearest he got to a real fight was a flight to Russia, which he chickened out of....The subtext to which was he doesnt face drug cheats, but then he fights an actual drug cheat in his next fight.
Don't think the ibf is on board with on this particular case. Either way this fight is not happening next
Wilder knows that Joshua can't fight until he deals with his WBA and IBF mandatories. Wilder is either just stupid or his saving face by pretending he wants the fight. He tried to fight Bellew FFS.
Some of you are so full of sht its not even funny. You have a champion challenging another champion to a fight on a certain date. Unifications are infinitely more important than mandatory fights. If this were anyone else you guys would be going on and on how this was a duck. Screw the mandatory set this fight up and call Wilder on his bluff if it is one.
This callout means absolutely nothing. He simply knows Joshua is tied up with mandatories atm so he's acting brave. Wilder would much rather fight past prime cruiser Bellew.
Ibf has already stated no unification so why should AJ fight wilder and lose one belt to gain another. Let Wilder fight Ortiz if Stiverne steps aside, this way Wilder can remove Aj's other mando and then fight AJ in 2018
I watched AJ _ vlad again yesterday with the sound down.Quite shocking how many punches AJ took was hurt several times apart from the knock down and was blowing hard mid fight.Wilder is flawed but dangerous if he connects with a big shot I think AJ is in big trouble.risky fight for AJ.
It's only more interesting if both champs are deserving. Wilders no more deserving than those mandatories, his resume is no better. How about he face one, and AJ the other, and then two deserving champs can face off for the unification?
wilder always does this.. as soon as a top fighter has a fight lined up he calls them out or trash talks them. then once there free wilder is no where to be found and quiet as a mouse. hes been doing this for the past 2-3 years.
He definitely has a punchers chance but it's a very small chance. Were talking about a boxer who was out boxed by Gerald Washington before his power bailed him out. Getting out boxed by a non puncher like Washington is one thing being out boxed by a big hitter like Joshua will likely mean he won't have the time to land that hail mary right hand because he'll get knocked out before he gets a chance to land it.
You're exaggerating something fierce. Washington out jabbed him , he didn't out box him , and it looked to me like Wilder never made any real attempt to take him out till the 5th round. I know from the Stiverne that Wilder is better than what he showed against Washington. Somethings guys don't churn out their best till they are faced against the best. I still heavily favor Joshua to win but the fight needs to happen to finally see what he's really made of.
