As already stated, Bong is high risk and low reward for AJ at the moment. I'm sure that AJ would fight Deonkey in a heart beat, particularly if it made business sense but, the way things stand it just doesn't. On top of all that, Bong will vie for an equal split in good ole Alabamie and will look for every possible advantage to ensure he stands half a chance. Imagine the interest that Windmiller fighting and beating Whyte would generate for a future fight against AJ and yet, unbelievably, Beoncey won't even consider that bout and yet his female fans insist AJ is the scared one. You couldn't make this **** up. Ali will be rolling in his grave at the lack of cojones displayed by Bum Squad, a fellow American Heavyweight 'champion'.
Martin got £6 million, which is around $8.5 million. $10 Million sounds fair for Wilder. Pulev doesn't have a title and was going to get $5 million.
If they do a WBSS of Heavyweights and they can get the top HWs to take part, Wilder won’t even make the final! Who’d be involved? Joshua, Whyte, Wilder, Parker, Ortiz, Povetkin, Miller, Pulev, T Fury, Haye, Chisora, Ruiz, Breazeale, Helanius, Bellew and I’ll throw in a bolter, Dubois There are plenty of fighters on that list, other than Joshua, who Wilder could lose to.
Who said he doesn't want to pay wilder? What he wants is to generate as much hype for a Joshua v wilder fight as possible. Wilder knocking out Whyte in London helps the fight v Joshua. It makes sense to get Wilder here and hopefully have him look impressive v Whyte so the fight v Joshua becomes as big as possible. Hearn could of put Ortiz in v AJ but he tried to get him over by having him fight twice on uk TV in the hope Ortiz would look like a monster. Unfortunately Ortiz looked like **** twice so it killed the fight but it was the right idea.
I'm sure if Wilder would take 75k for this fight he would be it tomorrow... That about all he brings...
Who didn't? It's been said like a thousand times around here that Wilder doesn't deserve the payday, that he'd be getting overpaid, that he needs to earn it etc. If Wilder doesn't want to travel to fight a challenger and turns down a career high payday, It's his foolishness. But to block a unification fight which'll probably start a new lineage just because Wilder didn't want to defend against another one of Hearn's fighters is plain ridicuolus. People pay to see Joshua. If he can sell out an arena and probably bring a good number of ppv buys against a mandatory defence that hardly anyone is crazy to see, he can sell a hell of a lot more against an undefeated American titlist with a %97 KO ratio who's rated right behind AJ at #2 who's also appeared in the commentatory on live airing of his previous fight.
i want to see Wilder v aj as soon as possible it can happen after stiverne and takam team wilder will have to accept hearns terms in the end as they are not willing to put up any money to make the fight happen themselves .
show me where i ever defended wilders resume. just one time. that being said, scott was easily beating chisora before his heart and british ref gave chisora a very questionable win. the top guys on wilders resume are every bit as good as the guys on joshuas, save for the washed up 41 year old, two year inactive ex champ.
Joshua is not ducking Wilder, hell he would knock Wilder out. Wilder is afraid of Joshua very very afraid! Usyk would beat Wilder and he is a cruiserweight!
A 41 year old, coming back from a 2 year lay off VK puts Stiverne to sleep, Breazale would likely beat Stiverne, Whyte, Takam, hell I'd even fancy Charles'i walk the earth like a god' Martin to beat Deonkey's best win Stiverne so, I'm afraid AJ's resume is just slightly better than Bongs, especially given he's had half the pro bouts
To quote many american fans on here Joshua is the a side. This is basically canelo vs lian smith except wilder is liam smith. When Joshua says jump wilder should be asking how high. Wilder needs to come to Joshua's backyard except what ever pay he is given or else go back to Alabama and face carnival fat men for chump change until one knocks him out cold and the hobo leagues gravy train stops. Honestly wilder has no say in negotiations for tho fight, if liam smith started trying to dictate terms to canelo on their fight everyone in Britain would think he was insane or stupid, wilder does it and Americans defend him. Insane
Joshua Vs Wilder has the potential to be a very big fight. Hearn obviously wants it to be as big as possible so he is trying to build it up to its maximum potential. There is no reason for AJ to rush, he had already achieved alot in a short space of time. From Joshua's point of view the fight will only get bigger as more time passes. If Wilder fights some decent opponents and keeps winning, he will help build the fight up. Even if that doesn't happen, the opportunity for a unification fight will still be there anyway.
takam isn't on the resume yet. whyte is pure horse****. stiverne obviously isn't very good. beating arreola and austin is still better than anything whyte has done. joshua definitely gets credit for doing it ion half the fights. btw, it was wk not vk. both the k's still put most of the division to sleep, even well past both of their primes.
