There`s no way of really knowing that, most American boxing fans back Wilder most Britas that know who AJ is back him.
Think Fury knows if he's disciplined and sticks to boxing, much like AJ on Saturday night, he can cruise to an UD points victory. Got to be focused though, Wilder's one punch away from victory at all times.
My gripe with AJ is that, he isnt willing to call out Wilder face to face. If AJ met up with Wilder and said 'why are you ducking me? Let's fight, I want you next'. Wilder will have to set up a fight with AJ ASAP following that call out, because that will be recorded and put out on YouTube etc. If a fight doesn't happen from that, then we will know who is ducking.
There doesn't need to be 'call outs' for this fight. It's been on everyone radar for a few years now. BOTH parties know this too.
It's not a matter of backing one guy or the other. I believe whole heartedly that Joshua exposed how mentally weak he is by allowing Ruiz to beat him and then coming back and being satisfied getting revenge in the fashion that he did
I honestly think the Ruiz defeat has taken something away from AJ's game. He'll be gunshy with any genuine puncher now. And no other genuine puncher is going to pitch up on fight night standing at 6ft1 and fat as a suckling pig.
Why just AJ??? .... and this is my gripe.... Why doesn't Wilder do the same.??? They are both full grown men.. I don't see either denying the other, but the obvious statements recently from Wilder about facing Ruiz in a unification but now AJ has got the belts back, "nothing??"... this speaks volumes about one party.... AJ has not ducked Wilder yet in my book.....I cannot say the same about Wilder.
Wilder has called out AJ for being a ***** multiple times since his rematch with Ruiz. AJ and Hearn both said they won't call Wilder out because they don't want to give him airtime. AJ and Hearn are scared shitless of losing those belts again
Yeah I know but we dont know who is actually stalling the fight. Wilder fans say its Joshua, Joshua fans say its Wilder. If Joshua is seen by all to be calling out Wilder to his face, then the fight will have to happen. If theres no fight after that, then Joshua fans can then boast 'hey AJ called out Wilder to his face!' not 'till this day!' Basically it'll end the debate on who's ducking who. Until then, we really dont know who's stalling the fight now do we
I agree Wilder should do the same. I respect Wilder as the champ and I think hes the best puncher I've seen for a long time but I suspect that hes the one stalling. This is why I want AJ to do it.
