    AJ just took a page out of Lennox' book who changed his tune about giving Vitali a rematch.

    Motivations for saying this is: 1. Lennox jealous/comparing of the new big British HW, and 2. I know he went to the White House for the Jack Johnson pardon. Wilder was also there. Probably buddied up and Lennox personally likes Wilder more than Joshua.

    Right now Lewis is still the greatest brit HW of all time, he probably feels threatened it AJ has a chance to take the mantle.

    Joshua would need to reign unopposed for quite a few years before Lennox should feel even remotely threatened.

    Agreed, just saying he's a pretty huge star over their, he's got the fame. As long as he eventually unifies and manages to end his career undefeated or maybe a 1 loss avenged he could take Lennox's place at #1.

    Every no name thinks they have to headline a PPV to take a big fight. Reason # 1,045 as to why boxing is losing audience...

    Lennox has been friends with Wilder ever since he drunkenly taught Deontay how to throw a jab at 2 am in front of some project houses.

    Lennox is my favourite HW of all time but here I think he is wrong. Besides, it was Wilder claiming he would agree to fight Joshua for anything first, then calling $15 million crackhead money when his highest purse was $2 million, if that isnt changing your tune then I don't know what is.

    In order to have a rematch, you got to have a first fight, right? Joshua doesn't even want that.
