Yeah he’s chatting sh*te on those two tweets. I tried to put the original one one but didn’t for some reason. Amended it now.
Night before Joshua’s US debut. Hmm.. PR stunt anyone? If it’s true, then it’s good news though obviously.
This content is protected Michael Benson saying it’s likely for ‘early next year’. No mention of that in the Wilder tweets so maybe he’s spoken to another source?
Would be great if it's true but all that tweet says is he intends to fight Fury after Ortiz, unless Fury confirms it I'll err on the side of caution and say it's just Wilder calling out Fury and not confirmation of a fight.
On that tweet yeah but there’s two follow up tweets in which he replies saying all contracts have been signed. Might just be trying to take the heat off of himself before the inevitable pressure after AJ wins on Saturday but fair play if not.
If he has already put pen to paper and signed a rematch with Ortiz and a rematch with Fury, then I can only support his. Remember, Ortiz had him hurt and almost KO'd him in the 7th round. I actually have no issues with that rematch (considering AJ/Fury were looking very unlikely). And now with the Fury rematch apparently signed as well, things are looking good for him. I will be watching.
Well then hopefully it's true, I'm sure Fury will confirm it or deny it soon. But I doubt Wilder would say it's signed if it isn't. Will be interesting to see the details of the deal. I assume it means Wilder fighting on ESPN as Fury has an exclusive deal. Is there a rematch clause? How much is Wilder getting?
