How come Wilder and Fury fought each other but Joshua has fought neither

Wished their management had the confidence you had in them instead of clearly ducking him.

AJ has already beaten half a dozen guys with better records than Wilder.

 

Exactly - this is the real answer, yet people will claim that X was ‘scared’ of Y.

 

He never fought Wilder because Wilder ducked him.

He never fought Fury because he always thought he was worth more than Fury and was the A Side.

 

Such as?

 

AJ admitted he was worried about Fury.

 

All three of them share the blame here. If they had wanted to decide this like Ali, Foreman, and Frazier did it would have happened.

I think those negotiations were about hype, leverage on the sanctioning body, and getting Povetkin to take a lowball offer.

Help Hearn make the mandatory cheap and help Wilder sell his Fury fights.

Eddie is right about one thing though, that Wilder was mismanaged. We've now seen the truth about what's in Wilder, imagine we saw that 8 years ago? He'd have been the biggest star since Mike Tyson.

 

Wlad, Povetkin, Whyte, Parker, Ruiz and Pulev all have better records than Wilder.

 

AJ wanted nothing to do with either of them, and with good reason! It takes a special guy to beat Wilder, AJ aint it. Fury was, and that's also why AJ wanted no part of Fury. Hearn knew this too.

 

No.

 

And they were all either over the hill or couldn't punch a hole in a blancmange.

 

Yes.

 

Povetkin, Wlad and Whyte can't punch?

Two of which Wilder ducked and all have better wins in the past 5 years than Wilder.

Wilder best win is against an even older Ortiz who record is no where near these guys.

 

Nah they come under the 'over the hill' category. Why did they all avoid Ortiz? Ortiz would've given them all hell.

 

After Aj beat Povetkin, Povetkin still went on to beat Whyte which more impressive than anything Wilder has done in his career.

Ortiz turned down fights against both AJ and Whyte. Ortiz went life and death with Martin and his best win prior to that was beating an overrated Jennings lol.

 

And who had Povetkin and Whyte ever beat? Ortiz beat Scott, Jennings, Thompson.
