    Wilder doesn’t have the balls to fight Joshua and will continue the “I want a bigger cut” excuse. Fury will be back on the Charlie this Xmas so will be out of action again for a while.

    Yet Wilder wouldn't fight him for 6 million. If Wilder don't land the bomb Whyte wrecks him !

    I think we'll get Joshua v Wilder next. Wilder lost and knows there's a good chance he gets outboxed by Fury again, Fury whonimo isn't back to his best yet and can improve.

    Makes sense to cash fully in on Joshua because he can fight Fury afterwards, whereas if he takes a legit loss he'll get far less from Joshua.

    Tyson v Joshua will be a nightmare to make even though both guys will be up for it Hearn and Warren aren't gonna do business on this fight very easily imo. They'll both want it on their respective channel and neither network would be happy to let one of their stars go to the other. For that, this fight will have to wait.

    We'll get Whyte v Usyk which will be PPV and gives them a bit more credence for for fighting Joshua.

    As for Fury, I dunno what he'll do if no immediate rematch, he could go after Pulev to steal his mandatory spot but I imagine Pulev will sit on that. Could fight someone like Breazeale or Kownacki which would be good for continuing to improve his sharpness and a good top ten type win.

    Wilder probably determines what happens in the division because he's the one who'll.make the choice whether he fights Fury again or Joshua and that'll.effect everyone underneath.

    @chatty that’s how I see it all as well except Wilder has come out saying he now definitely wants Fury again and Finkel said he won’t fight in April. Could just be saying those things? Who knows. If its not Wilder next then it’s Whyte which is disappointing.

    Doesn't matter what anyone says they want, whether it's Fury, Wilder or Joshua, actions speak louder than words.

    Hearn from last year was saying early 2019 was the last opportunity to get this fight made before mandatories piled up and became a factor that couldn't be ignored. It's now or never from Hearn. If the 320K number from Fury/Wilder are true he now has a decent bench mark to what the US number could be, so he has to make a serious offer, anything close to 60/40 in favour of Joshua for Wilder or Fury, in the UK would be a generous and serious offer that couldn't be ignored. Sure it might be more than Wilder is worth but you pay more to ensure it's in the UK and get home town advantage.

    If Wilder and Fury are still holding out for at least 50% then you know neither of them really want it, because neither of them have shown they deserve 50%. Based on the early numbers they both earned far less than Joshua does and less than 40% would give them with a fight with Joshua. So fighting each other again for less money than a Joshua fight shows no real desire to make the Joshua fight.

    Joshua would knock both out of the same night, talk of him being scared is ridiculous.

    I'm not even close to being a Joshua fan boy. For what it's worth it irritates me that his blatant racism is swept under the rug.

    I call things how I see them. And Wilder runs scared from Whyte like inflatable arm flailing tube man whenever he's mentioned
