    The bomb squad certainly sees some vulnerabilities with the bodybuilder. Hopefully Deontay gets his 50 percent split, that was promised earlier. Lol it's a done deal!

    In a "losers bracket" sort of sense, yes. Both him and Joshua are still top heavyweights, even if their recent opponents made them look unimpressive.

    Looks like PBC are finally cashing the bum out.

    It's a great fight, lots of intrigue and guaranteed entertainment. Still think Wilder will need to be dragged into the ring though.

    They might be dragging AJ out of the ring too.

    He fought Fury x3, but he's afraid of Joshua?? Makes no sense.

    I'd love to see it. No way AJ survives Wilders right hand.

    Cherry pick gone wrong.
    He had no choice.

    The first time he fought Fury he thought Fury was finished being overweight and looking bad in two comeback fights after being in a mental haze for a few years, Wilder had to fight Fury in a rematch cause tyheir first clash was a draw, he had to fight him in a third fight cause he got beat by him, he thought Fury was an easier option than AJ when he first decided to fight him, Fury was a huge underdog coming into the first fight.

    Wilder and Fury should be racing to fight Joshua despite his lack of belts. He's still a huge money big legacy fight, and it'd be an exciting fight too. AJ's value won't diminish too much if he loses to Usyk again, but if he then loses to Wilder/Fury then whoever gets him last will just be getting the dregs legacy/moneywise.

    A Joshua/Wilder fight would still be a big deal and still make lots of money - it just wouldn't matter as much anymore as it would have if they had fought when both were undefeated World Champions.

    Now it would be a clash between two of the top four heavyweights in the world - with, perhaps, a view to a title shot against Fury or Usyk - a couple of years ago it would be been a clash to decided the Undisputed World Heavyweight Champion.
