Too good to be true. Wilder is just trying to save face. The truth is, he knows his own limitations and is scared to death of being KOed by Joshua, so there will be no fight.
Wilder is scared to death of somebody like Breazeale costing him $20m with one big shot. I would be too if I was Wilder.
Have you seen the Breazeale AJ fight, it was Breazeale getting his face punched to smithereens for seven rounds.
AJ fans crapping themselves and hoping this isn't true. What a warrior Wilder is, accepting terms to fight against Hearn's cooked jugdes and molly coddling referees in the uk. No excuses, no retreat. The man has always just wanted to fight, compared to Joshua who rejected the highest boxing purse in HW history so he could fight old man clean Povetkin and milk his dumb fanboys for years to come.
And let us not forget that AJ came up with all sorts of cowardly excuses why he wouldn't fight in the states, even though prior him and Hearn have gone on record stating that they wished to crack the American market prior to Wilder rearing his ugly head with the 50 million dollar offer As a heavyweight world champion and a major star in world boxing, [Joshua] should box over here at some stage," Hearn told Sky Sports. ''I just think it's a natural progression to fight in other countries and he wants to break down boundaries as well and part of that should be boxing in America, Africa, the Middle and Far East, but right now he is very comfortable doing what he's doing. I am not sure if the US is imminent but I would expect him to box in America in the next 12 months." Enter Wilder in the States ''So with this Las Vegas talk, I owe it to everyone in Great Britain that has been supporting me to do my best to get this fight in the UK, in my opinion, that's number one.'' Joshua ''He [Wilder] has kind of said, 'alright, cool, come fight me in America'. But the thing is with that, I owe it to the fans and everyone supporting me to do it here.'' "And number two, if I go there, there's a lot of tricks that they play in terms of referees and judges and that's why I want to be at home where I'm secure.'' That ladies and gentlemen are the words of a ****ing shameless paper champ coward who should have been stripped of those world titles the moment he uttered those cowardly words while bringing shame to all the former legends who fought and battled all across the world with no problems at all.
I can already hear Hearn; "Listen' right, the fing is right, we're not gunna jus' bow down to is' demaaaarnds, AJ's the draw ere' we've got commitments alreadee"
