    Not right now.

    I'd rather see AJ face Hrgovic and Zhang and show he's still got what's required to fight at the top level today.

    If Fury beats Usyk I would rather AJ v Fury immediately.

    Wilder is 38 and has only won one fight in 4 years. He needs to prove he's still relevant.

    Let's see Wilder against Anderson or Sanchez or Joyce.

    I'm not desperately clamouring for it, but sure why not? Just because a boxer takes a loss doesn't make him irrelevant, or unable to be a threat in the next one.

    At this stage though it's no longer a superfight, as even Wilder fans know what will likely happen. But as a stay busy it's still got some intrigue.

    Yeah why not. Then I can tell people I told you so when AJ plants him.

    I do but its not viable now, unless the Saudis are still happy to blow the money on, Wilder was promised 40 million.

    Nope, let Deontay retire in peace. Joshua should fight Hrgovic next, then I’d like to see him with Zhang.

    He looks unspectacular but he’s a tough old lump, I reckon he’s deceptive in how good he is.

    Yeah I’d still like to see it but not overly bothered if it doesn’t happen anymore after last weekend. Wilder clearly isn’t the fighter he was made out to be.

    No simply put even though Wilder was a marquee name for years in the division he is now coming off a loss and needs to re establish himself like any other fighter would have too .

    If Anthony beats him now, they’ll just say wilder is shot.

    Agree

    It's a lose / lose for AJ. Wilder clearly wasn't there in his last fight and AJ would spark him. No point seeing Wilder get hurt too.

    Hope Wilder retires and will be remembered for his right hand.

    Sure, why the hell not? Parker outboxed him, no big deal, Parker came within a hair of outboxing a prime AJ as well. Just because someone loses on points to someone doesn't mean they're done as a fighter, especially at Heavyweight. People really need to knock that childish **** off, AJ is just 3 fights removed from getting schooled twice and here people are back to saying he's back and the number 2 in the division.

    This.

    If it was on in the bar I'd probably glance over once in awhile.

    Maybe they should just skip the fight itself and just do the nonsense. Delusional pressers, ludicrous costumes, hour long ring walks.

    Then a dance off! Wilders funky chicken versus AJ's robot.
