    Fight Povetkin you clown!! Povetkin's promoter is a Billionaire and has 100x more money than Al Haymon and Eddie Hearn combined.... You guys are terrified of him.

    I'd actually be OK with that fight, in my mind it's a good fight for a few rounds.

    One of the biggest stars in boxing and rightfully so, but in all of sports??...well that basketball commentator got his name wrong calling AJ Anthony Johnson. Then again he was a b-ball commentator who obviously knew little about boxings heavyweight division.

    See I actually agree with you, If you say something then you have to back it, if you ask for something and they give it to you then you can't just walk away.

    I just don't believe it's as simple as "here's the money, now sign" it never is, there is a lot to talk about, all sorts of issues and then the question of the rematch, that again has to be agreed and things decided on.

    But I agree with Wilder and his fans in principle, AJ and Hearn said they would fight for 50million and if it's there and you're happy it's there then make the fight.

    I think things would be a lot clearer if Hearn came out and said they have agreed to fight, the offer has been accepted in principle and now they have to just iron out the finer points of the deal.

    I believe he has said similar things but I can't remember him being clear and to the point, if he did that then we'd know and understand what's going on and people would be a little more patient.

    I can’t wait until that UKAD protected fraud gets exposed.

    He only said that because he thought Wilder's team wouldn't come up with the dough. Now the fraud has been exposed for what he is.

    I think Joshua saw what Povetkin did to Price. and he hasn't been able to sleep well since... knowing his fate is coming soon.

    Funny how that works when you have your country supporting you. Here in America, we’d rather support foreign hypejobs just morally of course through Internet popularity contests. Not something tangible as in monetary but hey. Fking anti-American Americans just for the f of it and it’s the In-thing to do. Our best commodity happens to be our garbage movies and we propel idiots like Kim Kardashian and Trump. It’s really pathetic.

    Anyhow Deadpool 2 was actually good. Nice distraction.

    Yes, Ryabinskiy is a billionaire, he can make the biggest offer, we all know the WBC and Haymon will always protect Wilder against Povetkin, so Joshua should fight Povetkin, someone who Wilder fears more than anyone!
