    Lol.

    Joshua has one more fight on showtime. Showtime and HBO will both be trying to Joshua signed up. AJ doesn't need Wilder. His going to be a far bigger fighter than Wilder will ever be.

    He aint going to HBO,i think it would be the best place for him,but they have a dwindling budgjet,no gurantee of him fighting in the States for four/five times in a row,which is what they would need to turn him into a ppv fighter,Showtime has invested a lot into him,and it would surely not help relations with Showtime and Matchroom,which would then extend to Sky,and then remember Showtime supplies content to Sky.People who say Boxing Politics does not go this deep are wrong,it does.

    Wilder is the C side, he doesnt deserve even 1/4 of it.

    I agree he doesnt deserve a 50/50 split but the fight should happen in Vegas.

    Fight won’t make any money in America and Wilder might deserve 30% he is not known here in the states and his resume is garbage. He has fought one top 10 opponent in 38 fights and almost 10 years as a pro and that is with 5 optional fights where he was free to fight anyone and politics were not involved yet he still was reluctant to fight the top contenders.

    Wilder does not want to fight Wilder, no way! Wilder is making an excuse to avoid Joshua who will knock that fraud out! Wilder wants the fight in Alabama with his personal referee, judges, boxing commission, etc., so he can hit Joshua in the testicles and allow Tony Week to stop the fight! Just like SOB did against Kovalev. In UK they could get 90,000 fans at ringside. In Alabama they will fight in a pig farm! Wilder will never go near Joshua, watch and see........................Wilder does not want to get knocked out. Usyk would knock Wilder out, but Wilder is afraid of him. Wilder wants winos from the alley!

    You need to come up with a good nick name for Wilder.

    You have Void and SOB but nothing for Wilder!!!

    Wilder deserves a farmy nick name.

    Prediction: they fight at the end of 2019, IF the cake doesn't get burnt in the oven before then.

    Get ready for tons of Wilder whining about how AJ doesn't want to fight him because they are only offering him peanuts to sign.

    Joshua isn't big drawing? The guy sold out the millennium stadium against Pulev in minutes. That sounds like a pretty big draw to me.

    The fight should be in the US.. Thats fair.. .. However.. With all the A side B side bulls** this is a way of not getting the fight.. Cause AJ and promoters are going to behave like divas when it comes to venue, purse etc etc.. And truth is.. AJ is the A side.. Ill be rooting for Wilder though

    The fight should not be in the USA, it makes way more money in England.

    That is true.. Thats exactly what my comment was about.. Because it is always about money..Unfortunately.. But for the integrity and to get a fair decision it should be in the USA or maybe somewhere else, somewhere neutral... However who cares about integrity and getting a fair shake in the boxing busines nowadays right?? I think Wilder's in for a tough night and would have to KO the fu** outta AJ to win.. Cheers.. Hope the fight gets made though.. I dont care where its at..
