I'm not a fan of either, but I sure like Joshi a lot more as Windmiller. And weren't you one of those A-side and marination cheerleaders yeyo?! I want to see that fight as soon as possible, but there are probably a couple of Joshua fans that want to put up Floyd style roadblocks to prevent it from happening. Both sides are putting up roadblocks though, with all that Whyte pushing (although for a shirtload of money), but moreso Wilder demanding a ridiculous 50/50 split and US location. I heard people about Pac not deserving more as $40M for fighting Floyd and Golovkin not deserving more as $10M for Alvarez, both which eventually turned out to be total lowball offers, but Wilder demanding an equal split is completely at another level here. Of course some fans fear a fight like that, in which one is viewed as a hypejob but with a ton of power and the other as the next big thing. Wilder has very little to lose and for him fighting Joshua is a win/win anyway. Joshua is the one that has a lot to lose and little to gain here.
yeah but have any of them said that they dont "WANT" the fight? There are plenty that think Wilder should get this or that, or that he should do this first but not really anyone saying that they dont want to see them fight
I want to see it, I want to see it desperately now. But Wilder needs to be realistic and stop pricing himself out of big fights. 7 million for Whyte and wants the fight is the US and a 50/50 split. It should be in the UK because Wilder isn't a draw in own country and he shouldn't be getting anything over 25%. Once he accepts those terms the fight will be made.
Why not Wilder 100% USA buys, Joshua 100% UK buys then 70%-30% everywhere else. 70% going to Joshua since he's considered "the" champion.
Do Wilder fans just make random nonsense up? T he whole UK vs US debate about where the fight should take place is laughable. I will remind everybody of this simple fact yet again. 10.6 million people, just in Germany, watched Joshua vs Klitschko. Do you realise how much revenue can be made through advertisement agencies with a viewership like that? It'd probably be more than the whole PPV income from Joshua v Wilder in the US.
Nice bait, failed to make BoxingForum24`s biggest AJ fan(myself) bite. Anthony Joshua runs the heavyweight division, get used to it and fall in line.
I just don't understand "Wilder fans". Why would you support a guy who has been the sole reason for the decline in heavyweight boxing in the past 5 years?
It just doesn't make sense to me. I'm not a 'fan' of any fighters....i just have fighters that I 'respect'. I don't understand what there is to respect about him.
Wilder V Haye Wilder V Wlad Wilder V Vitali Why couldn't he fight any of the above and rid us of the so called 'boring Klitschkos'?
