    Despite usually staying reserved when commenting on negotiations, Joshua has now spoken out aggressively, telling Sporting News: “Wilder’s just starving the fans from an undisputed heavyweight championship fight.

    “Wilder has smart people around him, he must know what he’s doing or be saying it to try and throw me off, who knows?

    “He might want the fight next, but I don’t see why he would want to wait until 2020, because 2020 turns into 2021, you know what I mean?

    “We need to get these negotiations on the way now in the background.

    “I’ll focus on my fight, but he’s got people representing him, I’ve got people representing me that can have these conversations so we can have the fight in 2019.

    “I don’t know why he must wait so long. I can’t control the division.

    “I think people assume that we were the ones that are dodging people.

    “They did a great campaign to make a name off the back of our success on this side of the pond and with all that talking and hearsay, none of them have stepped up to fight.

    “So, what can I say? Talk is cheap.”


    AJ saying it how it is. He needs to be screaming for this fight more often.
    I'm thinking 2020 all going to plan but the DW camp need to be realistic with their demands or this fight will never happen.

    With AJ holding the other 3 belts would there be any way into forcing wilder having to defend against him? I mean can AJ make things harder for wilder if he won a wbc eliminator aswell ?

    Absolutely agree, AJ needs to take a leaf from Briggs and start storming Wilder's press conferences and fights... I know it's not in his character but just turning up would make the press (ergo casuals) go wild for this fight..

    Oh Diddums. The bodybuilder Joshua needs to be more respectful towards Deontay. And lower his demands, so that Wilder collects a 70/30 of the lions shares split. The terms have changed now. And the bomb squad knows that Anthony is starting to crack. The terms are. Fight venue in the states, with 3 judges specially handpicked by PBC.

    Im actually thinking needs to be LESS respectful to Wilder. As far as im concerned he has been way too respectful throughout while Wilder and his team and his Youtube hype squad have been calling Joshua a coward, juicer, ducker, liar, slave, devious, a robot and much more. I think it is about time Joshua and Hearn turned on these fools. Maybe Hearn could keep it toned down he will still have to deal with these guys over other fighters making other fights but i think it is about time Joshua started to really troll Wilder.

    If we had somebody who is not a PBC shill interviewing Wilder or Finkel they could ask for clarification on a large number of the things they say because there is constant contradiction and lies. So i think its about time Joshua started calling them out on their fake news and spin.

    They both need to stop talking and bring back the golden days of HW boxing. This is sad.

    That's because Hearn controls what AJ says and does something similar to vid below...Now the shoes on the other foot and AJ is fighting yet another bum and his stock is dwindling, all of a sudden now everyone is outraged. When MR did this Wilder last year, the fact it was part of the "plaaaahnn" was conveniently overlooked.

    It's in Wilder's interest to fight AJ sooner, before he starts to age.

    Wilder is fighting Breazeale.
    Fury is fighting Schwarz.

    Id say its more likely that Joshua is facing the best opposition next. It could of been Ortiz but he ran, hell it could of been Wilder but he ran A LONG WAY AWAY from Joshua.

    I do feel AJ is silenced somewhat, not sure if its by Hearn. Stock wise, AJ has never been higher, the boxing world is swinging of AJ nuts, no one more so than Wilder. The Miller debacle wasn't anyone on AJ's teams fault and since Ortizn't got offered $7mill then we can hardly say he chose Ruiz either....
    Now as for BUMS enter MR Deontay Wilder, there's a guy who knows how to fight bums!!! hahahahhaahh But hey atleast he fights his mandatories (hahahahahahahah) Breazeale!!!! remember him??? yeh that guy who got splattered by AJ in his 16th fight???
