    I also think Joshua might think Wilder is going to be a dumbass during negotiations and demand a ridiculous split. Joshua brings all of the money here and can prob earn more/a similar amount fighting the likes of Pulev with the splits they'll accept.

    I think Wilder can take a 75-25 or 70-30 split he should be happy with that and go for the opportunity. He has to realise AJ holds all the chips and beating him is the only way to become the man in the division.

    That bum Wilder needs to score a major win if he wants a fight with the division superstar, simple. Only Wilder knows why he won`t step up.

    Indeed. He should be grateful that Joshua has assembled a number of the belts in one place for him to try and win in one fell swoop, not to mention the ton of cash he'll be sending his way. This is an amazing opportunity for Wilder but he'll prob still try and find a way to make sure we get him against Wach rather than the fight we want to see him in.

    People are deluded if you think he wont get at least 60/40.Wilder is a ****,and will probably ask for 60/40 for himself,he dosent even deserve 70/30.The only thing going for him,is he is a unbeaten american.I hope AJ beats the **** outta him,when they meet.I wish so badly that the uppercut landed on Wilder instead of Wladmir.

    I think Wilder wants this fight more than AJ to him it's high risk, high reward whereas for AJ it's high risk medium reward so AJ has more to lose when they weigh it up.

    Your hate for him seem really irrational, Wilder has more going for him than just being unbeaten American, he has one of the highest KO ratios in the sport, he talks a good game and is always in fun fights because of his vulnerability the only thing missing is the resume.

    Well the Ortiz fight was never going to happen IMO. I can't see any fighter turning down 4m to fight Whyte to take 1m against Ortiz. It was always really going to Stiverne as old man Luis has been removed from this fight 'for health reasons' rather than being a cheat by the relevant bodies standards.

    I've also seen you talk about Deontay's KO % like it's something to be proud of. Low tier opponents for the majority of fights = an incredibly high KO percentage. Nothing remarkable about that.

    And look where it got him,to Stiverne.Which sums up Wilder and his boxing record.I believe he'll demolish Whyte,quicker than AJ did,and i'm sure he does aswell,so why didnt he take it.
