Wilder blatantly ducked Povetkin. His claim it was because of a failed test went out the window when he fought Stiverne instead, who had himself just failed a test.
Joshuas SOS is better than Wilders but not by very much and his fans hyping up fighting Povetkin and Pulev while trashing Wilder for fighting Ortiz are hypocrites of the highest caliber.
You can cry because you look like a clown in all these threads, but it will not move me. I'm not sorry your favorite fighter lost. He got completely splattered. You spent hours, probably days of your life defending a fighter who was completely overrated. "Haha"
Dumb **** thread. Fury disappeared from the division, and then could not fight Joshua because he was contractually obligated to rematch Wilder. Wilder turned down, what, $50 million, or something? Joshua beat who he could get in front of him. Besides, Wilder sucks, so why is his name being mentioned?
Wilder admitted to ducking AJ in 2019 no matter how some people are trying to spin it. He rejected a genuine and a legit deal (Shelly Finkel words, not mine). AJ signed to fight Fury in 2021 but Fury lost the arbitration and had to fight Wilder for the third time. AJ then signed to fight Wilder in 2024 but Deontay wet the bed against Parker and Saudis didn't want to see that fight anymore.
