Fighters he was going to avoid: Klitschko's . Fighters he did avoid : Jennings / Mansour / Pulev / Fighters he ducked : Joshua Fighters he waited on : Ortiz Fighters he personally chose in title fights. Szpilka : /Washington / Arreola Fighters he attempted to fight in actual title fights : Wawarzyk Fighters he decided not to persue ina second attempts : Povetkin Fighters he ignored with big money thrown at him besides AJ. Briggs 2 million 2016/ 2017 and Whyte highest offer 7 million . Fighters he picked thinking he got one over on them and backfired : Fury Fighters he planned fighting next instead of AJ. Breazeale/Ortiz 2 / Kownacki Hope this clears the thread up.
