    You didn’t refute a single thing I wrote. You just blathered on about how you’re content to see top ten contenders avoid each other, especially if they’re from the U.K.

    Wilder is working on his third in about a year.

    But didn't you refer to him as "the softest guy in the top ten" when you were ripping Dillian Whyte's resume ?

    What is the contradiction? Can one not be the softest guy in the top ten while also maintaining a decent level of opposition?

    Could it be that he's getting the fights because he's the softest guy in the top ten? A real head scratcher.

    Absolutely. It’s why the amateurs is more a sport than the pros.

    Awesome, about time. I'm just glad his life and death struggles with Fury and Ortiz havent put him off fighting a live opponent after defending against the likes of Molina, Duhapaus and Szpilka for the last 4 years.

    Tyson Fury ducked Wlad and Wilder, hasn’t fought a top ten contender in his career, and has elected to fight some scrub who is ranked in the 40s on Boxrec. Let’s stay on topic.

    Wilder looks like he's going to fight AJ's left overs.
    AJ fighting Miller next & once a job done on him maybe Wilder will fight him.
    All this love for Wilder when he won't face a man from the USA I don't get before AJ,that fight should have been done & dusted a long time a go.

    Huge Fury fan, immensely talented, however he loves fighting soft touches and yet bangs on about how he is a fighting man,
    He should be ashamed of fighting Ze German.

    1. Breazeale is a mandatory
    2. Breazeale is from the USA

    This thread is not about Joshua or Wilder. Save your feelings.

    With Miller’s outing, Pulev, Breazeale, and Parker are the only “clean” contenders left.
