    They are all juicing and in the middle of their cycle so will test dirty themselves.

    6 million dollars waving in their face. Not worth it if it ends their career's reputation.

    i hate to jump on conspiracy theories, but i cant otherwise make sense of it. other than they are all trying to line up against wilder instead, who they may feel is an easy fight compared to aj. but all of them?

    Whoever is going to replace Miller for this fight is definitely not getting 6mil. How about that then ? There is not enough time to prepare anyway.

    Whoever replaces Miller will have a career high payday, similar to the pay days Wilder and Fury shared in December. Will not come close to getting it against anyone else.

    Maybe they won't get six mill but there sure not getting anywhere near that for their next fight anyway.
    How about a shot at 4 belts? Still not worth it?

    It's nearer to 7 weeks than 6 and that's plenty of time to get ready.

    Rocky come to life. Nobody wanted to face Apollo Creed with only a few weeks to prepare.

    Wilder saying that Miller isn't likeable and that the boxing community is glad he's been caught is pretty funny as whilst accurate could easily be applied to him too.

    A beating from Wilder is far more enjoyable than from AJ as Wilder put you to sleep quickly where AJ will punish you slowly and consistently every round..

    No one wants to take that beating with out being trained and prepared..

    Plus seeing a guy get caught juicing means they need to be sure of their cycles too...

    Its the only logical explanation. In my opinion its worrying the amount of people not stepping forward for career defining paydays and title shots some of who will never see it again.

    There's a few ways this can roll. One as you wrote they're in their cycle. Two, they're not in their cycle but will be heavily disadvantaged since AJ has already been thru his cycle, so they'd at a huge disadvantage. This is the **** Fluid used to pull, prevent his opponent from doping/cycling while getting all the advantages. Not saying this is the case, but you do realize it could be just as likely?

    See, there's many ways to write this history.

    very plausible, that idea hadn't occurred to me
