    Do you think this vid shows a similar situation to Wilder and AJ now and do you think the outcome is going to be the same and why?

    Has Wilder tossed his belt in a dust bin?

    Who is Wilder ducking exactly?. Last I checked they're the ones chasing after Joshua.

    Wilder's team went into hiding when it came to attending the meeting and putting a contract on the table, all talk...

    This. Hearn and Joshua's handlers clearly don't want the Wilder fight until another year or two passes.

    Not until the WBC tries to force him to fight a prime good heavyweight.

    He's a double decker ducker. Bowe fought Holyfield 3 times.

    Don't think you can compare Wilder to Bowe at the moment. I mean Bowe offered Lewis $3 mill for a fight after he beat Evander, while Wilder is offering $50 mill. One is clearly an attempt to low ball an opponent the other is not.

    I don't think Bowe was scared of Lewis, but Rock Newman definitely was and Bowe was more than happy to take a path of least resistance that didn't include a fight with Lewis. They only ever agreed to the fight after Bowe lost his belts and then it was very easy to make a deal but when Bowe had the belts the 2 real attempts to make the fight never came to anything for a reason, Newman didn't really want it.

    Wilder and his team offering $50 mill seems like a legit attempt to make a fight to me, unlike when Bowe offered $3 mill.

    Open your eyes, Joshua's been found out. If some one's coming with 50 mil you don't start being awkward

    Wilder is must worse than Bowe, Bowe would have knocked Wilder out. Bowe had some good fights, Wilder fights winos from the alley..................and one from the nursing home...................

    They have met up, the offer has been confirmed, AJ said he isn’t willing to concede home territory.
