A reminder to boxing of what it could be...

Wilder flat out refused to fight AJ for any amount of money. "You know I was offered more money to fight Joshua than I got for fighting you" ~ Deontay Wilder to Tyson Fury.
Fury and Wilder have had three career defining fights against each other though, AJ has had none.
He’s the guy who’s missing out, Matchroom have failed him massively. Eddie Hearn simply cannot deliver the big fights outside of the UK.
AJ should go it alone, he doesn’t need a promoter, the guys a superstar. Control your own destiny.
Fury was unable to fight AJ because of his own promoter's incompetence in not formally terminating a rematch clause with Wilder when he he had the chance.
The deal that Hearn negotiated for a unification fight between Fury and AJ - outside the UK - would have earned them both $100million+ if Fury had been able to accept it, which he wanted to do.
AJ has been with Hearn since the start of his career and during that time he has earned more money and sold more PPVs than Fury and Wilder combined.
I know you don't like Eddie Hearn's face, but you could at least try to keep it real.Comment

Fury dropping Wilder doesn’t change the fact that Wilder also dropped Fury that fight was clearly competitive of both guys went down you absolute moron.
Wlad barely landed a clean shot, he was comprehensively outboxed.
Idiot…Comment

I don’t do the he said/she said bullsh**.
I think we can all agree their are/were three top HW’s of this era. Fury, Wilder and AJ. Fury and Wilder have fought three times, AJ has fought neither. It’s clear what/who the problem is…
Come up with all the excuses you want, but it doesn’t change the fact Eddie Hearn has failed to deliver the biggest fights for AJ.Comment

Yes, it's clear as day who the problem was.

Fury v wilder was great. But for 3 fights takes 3 years to complete now out of prime. Should only need 3 months between each fight. A month's rest and a 8 week training campComment

Best thing for me has been the majority of the talk is about the fight. Not ped use, not bad judging, not ref incompetence, not politics just what went on in the ring.
The sport needed the hwt division to bring the focus back on what goes on in the ring and not out of it.Comment
