AJ and Wilder fist bumping each other in 2017

You’re wrong, most of the fighters that talk **** about each others truly dislike each other. Most fighters can be respectful but make no mistake, it’s no friends in fighting!

 

This video puts to bed the myth that AJ cannot take Wilders right hand.

 

Well he didnt and he could of done it for 100 million too and he still didnt want to do it. So what can you do? Frustrating time to be a Wilder fan with all the ducking and so on.

 

Took it on the gloves like a boss. Good defense work.

 

Proof that AJ can take a hard fisting.

 

They don't exactly seem like enemies now either. They certainly don't seem keen to fight each other anyway.

 

Not read the rest of the thread, I stopped at ‘Usyk is running scared of Takam’

Seriously hope that’s trolling

 

I have no clue to what point you are trying to make. First off they are boxing not fighting. Second off what does being friends in the ring have to do with them hating each other outside of the ring? These people don't know each other outside the ring. As I stated these people are just trying to promote the fight to casual boxing fans. Most boxers have no malice toward their opponents.

 

I’m saying that you’re wrong. It’s not only for show, they truly dislike each other’s. It’s only casuals that think it’s a part of the show and that it’s planned.

I been involved in professional fighting for many yrs, both my team and myself have been involved in shuffles and altercations at the weigh in and after the fight and it’s not a single time where it hasn’t been real. It’s not planned but when you have genuine dislike for each other’s it can escalate real quick.

 

just lol if you still think boxing is real in 2019, boxing is entertainment, if you want to watch real fights go watch wwe

 

That's just a play on words by you, an abstract 'pun'--not an irony.

 

It was just a tap of respect and acknowledgement to a fellow champion of his division, from both guys. You can respect your biggest rival--in fact by virtue of being his biggest rival, the quick gesture was fitting.

 

They’ve probably never met in person since that night, it’s just hype and entertainment, doubt they have anything personal against each other they’ll probably be friends when it’s all said and done

 

They are both nigerian brothers. That’s how they probably think of eachother. Wilder is known to have stong Nigerian ancestry/roots as does Joshua. Again just like always, it’s not personal, just buisness...

Both have been in contact eachother DIRECTLY without the likes of Hearn and Finkle interfering. Joshua has admitted numerous times both he Wilder have exchanged emails/phone calls etc

All about hyping the fight to reach the golden sports casual market. And get the big media companies to start hyping this fight up. Both stand to make nine figures. Both have benefited from eachother hugely. Both deserve credit and respect from how they came from nothing to making milllions and both will hopefully give us a great fight.

Nothing more, nothing less. Big up both
