He was 214 because he was sick leading up to the fight . He has be as high as 229 and almost always
In the 220 range . And to anwser your question no he is 40-0 39ko with 7 defenses of his belt all be stoppage i think he is doing just fine with what he has .
I would be bummed out as a fan , but would not blame ggg at all if he pulled out .
Considering the press canelo got on his muscle mass gain in the first fight then the saying where theres smoke theres fire comes to mind
Rob McCracken has taken fighters abroad before, so he'll be ready. Camp likely gets set up in Miami or Las Vegas (Wilder sticks to his usual routine in Alabama), and McCracken likely brings sparring with him from the UK.
That would be very wise on their part and would be the right move , i would hate for aj to do the camp in the u.k and come over for fight week and have a 8 hr time difference make him not at his best .
This fight is for everything and both sides need to train proper and be well rested , if i ws aj i would do either vegas or cali because florida still has a 3 hr difference from vegas .
Eddie hearn has literally debunked everything wilder fanboys have said to say their ducking in latest 1 hour 20 min interview on ifl, do you ever see winkle in interviews?
Hearn has said wilder can still sign contract for fight in april for 15 mill, and make 50/50 in rematch if he wins. If wilder is so confident he'll beat joshua he'll jump at that offer, he would make a minimum of 50 million over two fights if he wins and he'll become undisputed champ. Thats literally 20x what hes ever earned.
It is clear who is stalling this fight.
Wow you must be british . Kinda funny how aj just last yr said he wanted to wait till 19-20 for the fight everyone forgets that lil part but its wilders fault right ? ... idiot . Even uk fighters are coming forward saying aj / hearn are ducking ect..
Povetkin knocked both Takam and Duhaupus out cold with one punch. AJ couldn't do that to Takam and Wilder didn't have Duhaupus off his feet in 11 rounds.
Ortiz is way over-rated and Wilder's team knew it, which was why they were still so keen to fight him, even after his PED test failure.
Duhaupus took that fight with less then 24hrs notice and wore tennis shoes for christ sake , do you watch fights or just go to boxrec and look at results .
Not only that he only fought Duhaupus because he got busted roiding and stiverne pulled out and wbc tossed him out of the rankings . Like i said , whats your deal you a hater or just a really dumb fan of anybody not named wilder ?
No. AJ and Hearn are still in charge. Wilder wouldn't be able to make these kind of offers to anyone else. Only AJ. So he's the reason it's such a big fight.
Lol for 50 mil hearn and aj arent gonna be in charge and it will be in vegas . This whole thing is gonna give hearn nightmares tonight , aj's first fight in the states against wilder yikes . I honestly thought it being in the u.k with 80,000 brits cheering him on would be key to his victory in a sense , but with a 50mil offer its gonna be in the u.s now and that gonna help wilder a freaking ton .
This offer is more than just a fight negotiation. This is Al Haymon and Lou Dibella sending Hearn a message. That message is sit down lil boy. U are swimming with sharks. You a big fish in a little pond and know ur place!
Exactly and its awesome isnt it ?hearn can talk some **** gotta give him credit there .
Yeah i think a lot of people forget wilder has a really decent jab but that was taken away due to ortiz southpaw stance . But wilders jab is becoming a serious weapon against orthodox fighters and his straight right is elite and he has a very improved left hook as well .
Eddie hearn just stfu evetybody is sick and tired of your games either give wilder AJ or keep wilders name out of your mouth why the hell's he even talking about wilder anyways ? Hearns a ****in joke
Ortiz got busted roiding too .. but lets all ignore that ...
The time ortiz got busted for wilder it was bp meds not a ped like sasha got busted for in his wilder & stiverne fights . Plus what does ortiz have to do with what we are commenting about . Sasha got that ko as early as he did because je was roided FACT and duhapauhs had less then a day and was basically yanked from the crowd ... the guy didnt even have boxing shoes or gear of his own so that victory has a serious * next to it .
Povetkin may be a 39 year old 2 time PED cheat, but he is clearly bettter than the 39-going-on-45 year old 2 time PED cheat Ortiz, who he replaced as AJ's WBA mando after Ortiz ducked Joshua to fight Wilder instead.
Aj " pay me 50million and ill sign that second " wilders handlers " heres 50 million lets do this " . Aj " well i really want the fight in the u.k and i dont care if i make less ... lol how can you guys believe this is wilders fault ? Aj b.s his fans big time and its to bad that they are trying to age wilder out , they are gettimg close he will be 33 next april . Thanks a lot hearn & Aj bunch of ******* .
Oh and yeah a tricky southpaw is much harder to fight than a washedup pedvitkin , i would go so far as to say ortiz stops sasha in or arounf rd 6-8 . Ortiz is taller longer and heavier and can box better than sasha so how does sasha win that fight ?
Those scorecards were complete bull****.
how were the bs ? Wilder got a 10-8 5th and won the 6th and 3rd and actually should have got a kd in the 3rd as well . It wasnt this huge blowout in ortiz favor you should rewatch the fight with better objectivity . 1 thing ortiz did great was take away wilders jab and made him more of a counter puncher , which was more due to him being southpaw then anything else
So which titles do you consider legit?? Certainly not the WBC with its crooked ass.... They have the regular belt, the diamond, the Silver, the fecorbox, those silly belts they keep trying to give Canelo and he keeps telling them to stick it up their ass....
Or do you consider the WBA belts legit? If so which one? They have the super champion, the regular, the interim, and who knows what else.... So which belt do you consider legit??
To me their ALL pieces of shet and I wish fans and boxers would stop putting too much weight on them piece of shet alphabet soup belts!
I know it'll never happen cause regardless of what I think those belts do mean something in boxing but it's fuccing ridiculous how many belts are in each division. It's a fuccing joke!
As far as following their own rules and enforcing them then it has to be the ibf they dont mess around and make you defend every 9-12 months and they dont have the silly super diamond ect.. belts either .
So fo historys and which belt most fighters want is the green belt/wbc which is funny because the wba title is the original hw title it has the longest history
Wilder was lucky AF and was losing bad against Ortiz until his Hail Mary worked. Not much to praise there tbh
I always show Floyd respect. Best fighter the past 20 years - no doubt
Sorry but he wasnt losing badly at all should have had kd scored in the 3rd kd ortiz in the 5th and won the 6th lost 7th -8th dtarted coming back in the 9th and got the finish in the 10th ... you from the uk by any chance ?
^^^^^^^^
Dummy number 3 .....well not much to say about you ,reading this one may lose IQ points it doesn't even make sense . Some little kid logic or something ?...lol !:stupid:
I hope for your sake you are under 20 .
What would you say if you were getting ready to fight q highly skilled elite boxer then you find out theres a great chance he is on aas ect ... add in how much his bodys changed and tell us how you would feel
Why not put the part he says the wilder fight must happen in 2018 bottom of the article
Biased American site protecting wilder with an agenda
POS
Then stay off are american biased site and go on a uk 1 and get all the hearn / aj circle jerk you can handle .
Truth is him talking about another fight before wilder is ludacris
Nobody cares about this guy , he has fought 50 nobodys and has only 9 defenses at least floyd fought around 10-12 good fighters 4-5 great fighters and beat everybody in 3 different decades this is a clickbate article . Congrats 50-0 against anybody is a great job but its not even close to what flyof did , the guy won a belt in 1998 and either always had 1 or was fighting for 1 in everyfight for the rest of his career very impresive tbf
After his black race comment i knew he was a dick this just further proves it . I also like how his racist b.s got swept under the rug and his fake nice guy persona is intact let a white athlete say that b.s this guy reminds me of a better organized jon jones with his fakeness
Actually no, he was up on all scorecards 85-84 before the stoppage so no you are dead wrong, he wasn’t losing badly to Ortiz
Exactly he actually should have been awarded a kd in the 3rd rd aswell that was a punch and a great performence from wilder against a dangours southpaw ... Aj and hearn noticed that too if he was an easy win they would be unifying in september instead of fighting pedvetkin. I agree though that guy is dead wrong .
LMFAO! No you don't dude. I don't believe that for one second. That is you just giving AJ every benefit of the doubt.
Wilder has the power to end AJ, povetkin does not. Povetkin is skilled but, as the wlad fight showed us, he is not big enough to handle top tier large HWT's, even though he can beat the lower level ones.
If Hearn was serious about the fight being next he'd have a date and venue in the contract. he didn't because the venue he wants (wembley stadium) isn't viable until it gets warmer, things you have posted months ago.
Pretend wilder is GGG getting a contract with no date and venue, my guess is then you'd see my point.
This is hearns version of what golden boy did to ggg make him wait because you have the youth
He does that and he will get him self knocked out with a straight right thats wilders money punch , i hope he is just boasting after his precieved bad performence . He needs to box and move to win this fight not stand and trade thats dumb
Well if they plan on making money in the u.s it sure as hell wont be aj bringing in the viewers his last showtime fight didnt even crack 500,000 viewers where wilder has the two highest rated fights in showtime in the last 5 years where he set the mark at over 1.2 million viewers in his first title fight and just broke that with his last fight , so if any u.s boxing fans buy it it will be for wilder and not aj . Aj is a huge star in the u.k but nobody gives a **** aboht him here and wilder has a big enough fan base to at least warrant 15 million if they are doing a flat fee . The u.s market over here will bring in more then 15mil so i think this whole things a joke and they should do a 65-35 split for this fight and whoever wins the 1st fight gets the bigger purse in the 2nd fight
I have honestly like the winner gets the bigger purse and loser gets smallest and a draw they split it , it would make guys fight harder to get the win/bigger purse
