Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua: I'll Do Everything in My Power To Fight Tyson Fury

It’s obvious Aśś Juice been ducking wilder since 2016. “Don’t wait make the date, mate” - Deontay Wilder 2016

I recall several statements by Olafemi along the lines of “you fight him” talking to the fans who were calling for him to fight wilder as well as others along the lines of him not being ready yet for wilder. Hearn didn’t want to have his man fight wilder unless he could get assurances on both men’s careers in case wilder beat Olafemi. For some reason, Hearn doesn’t treat fury and his tram like he treated wilder and his and I would really love to hear why

Wilder fanboys crack me up. Not only liking to blame Eddie for everything to making stuff up to defend the narrative wilder wasn’t to blame for the fight not happening. Lol

How is making a factual statement a “fanboy?” His observations concerning Hearn that are actually factual seems to have elicited an emotional response from you. Ever hear of the saying when a statement receives an emotional response you’re right over the target?

I believe he’s not just over the target he nailed it.

It’s intersting….young Edward never demanded fury sign with dayzin in order to make their Saudi Arabia fight like was the condition for a wilder fight with Olafemi…young edward seemed to respect that fury was with top rank and Arum…young Edward never made it personal with fury with the insults he had for wilder and his team….things that really make you wonder about what kind of man Hearn is and his motivations

There was no requirement for Wilder to sign with DAZN in order to fight AJ. John Skipper of DAZN offered Wilder his own fantastic 3 fight deal which included a match and rematch with AJ. Wilder turned it down. Hearn wasn't involved in that offer, it was between DAZN and Wilder.

Do you recall Wilder saying this to Tyson Fury?

"You know I was offered more money to fight Joshua than I was getting to fight you."

[greeneye99]

Yep. Deontay has been seeking the best since 2016 and without being able to get AJ, he instead turned to the next best fighters available.

This is why he took on the might of Szpilka, Arreola, Washington, Stiverne, Ortiz and Brezeale. These are the best heavyweights available.

Credit where credit is due, he signed up to fight Fury...

...Who was morbidly obese at the time and ,coming off an extended battle with hard drugs and booze....

... And Wilder's career has been in a tailspin ever since.

All Facts!
Lololololol

This is completely dismissed as total fabrication by the bumsquad groupies. Even though it came directly from the horses mouth...
wilders fans are about as delusional as he is himself.

That's cause Fury ain't a punk like the other guy

I read that long quote by Joshua in the voice of Bricktop in the movie “Snatch”

That Wilder offer never guaranteed an AJ fight. AJ got bashed by chubby Mexican and lost all his belts , and then had to do rematch, so fight would never have happened.

But your exactly right about the dazn thing. Wilder was never going to sign with dazn on a long term multi fight deal and ditch his current team.

So why he fight fury a 2nd and 3rd time? Your not making sense.

Fury looked quite fit to me. He came on quite strong in 12th round.

If you want to see an obese mis match against an unfit opponent... have a look at who AJ won his belts off.
