Comments Thread For: Deontay Wilder Won't Take Step-Aside Deal To Allow Fury-Joshua, Says Scott

[Boxviewer]

Good for him. Now don’t bs and make the fight right away. That way Fury can dispatch with him quickly and then we can get the actual fight we want to see.

I don't think that Fury can just dispatch Wilder this time around. Wilder be will better prepared, last time he was completely overwhelmed by Fury's new tactic. And Wilder still has his ko power, so the outcome of the trilogy is far from being a formality. IMHO.

Damn, smh. This dude spewed a metric fuck-ton of horeseshit after Fury snuffed him last February. The world was relieved after the finally went silent....thank you, COVID. Now he's come back in an attempt to ruin an Undisputed HW bout...with two men who can and will give us a great fight! What a bummer.

Beyonce Wildher did nothing in the rematch but miss right hands and get pummeled all night long. He got washed and sent home with his goofy outfit and useless right hand. Let's start a GoFundMe to help pay the step-aside fee so we can see a real fight in August.

Seriously....if the Gorilla Glue girl can score big, surely us boxing fans can pitch in and pay to keep this dude away until AJ and Fury are done handling business. I'd rather send about $25 bucks to keep him away than another $85 to watch him fail because he only believes he needs a right hand and nothing else.

And trust me, I'll pay the $85 to watch him get pummeled into oblivion, but I believe in getting the most for my money. Lol

they had a rematch clause the third fight should been done 7 months ago min

If true, he's a damn fool who's career is about to be ended rather quickly, but I'm guessing they are just playing hardball to extract the most money possible out of Fury and then take the check and try to build back against an easy touch

Wilder also probably wont come-into the third fight at a career heaviest weight, like he did in the rematch,
which suggests that he may not have taken the rematch training camp as seriously as he did the first camp.
Wilder was close to his career lowest weight for the first fight. Wilder relies on speed and athleticism, so
he didn't do himself any favors by coming into the rematch heavier.

Wilder did exactly what Lennox Lewis had to do to get the Rahman rematch. Has nothing to do with money and nothing to do with the belts.

Just a chance at redemption.
July 24th.
Can't wait...

Deyonce Wilder is the turd that won't flush.

[sicko]

The only problem with that is that Hearn and Joshua don’t owe Wilder **** and they will not give him that ridiculous demand.

OBVIOUSLY! However for AJ vs Fury to happen August and for them to make all that money in the Middle East that $150 Million Site Fee... F^ck your Pride, Ego and differences, it would be well worth it for the winner to just commit to fight him if it will get him to step aside.

Of course AJ and Eddie don't have to do that because this is not their mess this is Bob Arum and Frank Warren mess. However, for that type of money they have on the table right now...it would be worth it IMO

[lion33lit]

Not surprising in the least...,why take step aside money when you know it’ll be next to impossible for him to cheat this time around? Why give Joshua a good shot at potentially exposing this cheat(?), and the shot at a huge payday?! ....

The only issue would be the suicide watch implemented for the Fury Fan Club when he loses.... Such hurt would destabilize them to such an extent, that it would take only Fury himself stroking their necks with that “glove” whispering, “you’re not a bloke, these things happen, thanks for your support.”

But Fury can’t cover the entire UK at the same time....this could be tragic....

Wilder took the rematch very seriously, he just thought? My power will be enough to deal with Fury 'I think it was a tactical decision to bulk up, and theoretically just build power for the rematch'.

It was the wrong tactical decision by Wilder, because he does not really carry weight very well at all.
