Why does Wilder keep shouting his mouth off when he doesn't want to fight? He keeps on going on about wanting the biggest fights but is too scared to even come to UK to build any fight up. This guy is just using AJs name just to get publicity. He has never had any decent opponents and is demanding a 50/50 split with AJ. Be real and stop pricing yourself out of the big fights. Hearn has come out numerous times about making the AJ fight happen but apparently never heard anything from Wilders people back. This is a simple fight to make, it just needs Wilder to 'man up' . Let's hope he agrees once AJ wins tonight however I fear this fight will be further away once AJ demolishes Parker in brilliant style.
He just knocked out Ortiz...the alleged bogeyman of the division, who Hearn steered AJ well away from. Infact beyond Wlad, Ortiz is the stand out opponent between Wilder and AJ. How is he scared?
Ortiz who is about 90 years old. AJ has not avoided anyone and its strange Wilder is shouting his mouth off all the way over from USA but refuses to come over to UK. If Wilder wants the fight then why doesn't he just come over here and sign the contract - because he is scared!
AJ has not avoided anyone? Okay bar Wlad WHO EXACTLY has he fought? Who?....Martin?.....Breazeale?.....Molina?.....Takam (at short notice)? Oh **** me sideways that's a murderers row if ever I saw one.
All the Heavyweights are an average bunch but they are all better than what Wilder has faced. At least AJ is trying to unify the titles but Wilder just keeps shouting without backing it up. If he is serious about fighting AJ then I just want him to agree a contract or just shut up. Do you really think Wilder wants the fight? I think not.
Assuming AJ gets past Parker, the biggest fight for him is Wilder. It makes him undisputed and gets him that WBC belt. Hat fight is also the biggest fight for Wilder. So this goes to both sides- make it happen and quit the BS. Both sides have come out with BS in recent weeks too.
AJ has not mentioned him because he wants to 100% concentrate on Parker. At the moment there is no point talking about a person who is currently scared of entering the country never mind the same ring.
AJ v Wilder will happen when the hype gets to a point that they make record purses. All this slagging off and not turning up tonight bla bla bla is scripted planned salesmanship and average boxing fan believes it all and builds the fight. Personally I see Wilder winning it.
It would already make record purses and Wilder still doesn't want it. By waiting they are playing a risky game as one of them could potentially lose which would be a disaster. I think Eddie knows Wilder doesn't want it which is why he is manoving Whyte into mandatory position. Soon Wilder will be trapped and have to fight either AJ or Whyte.
